[-] huf@hexbear.net 18 points 8 months ago

a verb meaning to endow someone with glands

[-] Ronin_5@lemmygrad.ml 20 points 8 months ago

Millions of Spaniards were simultaneously aroused and they have no idea why

[-] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Wait when they heard about reislamisation of Al-Andalus

[-] Fishroot@hexbear.net 19 points 8 months ago

Why balkanize when you can just combine them into Greater Albania?

[-] PaulSmackage@hexbear.net 8 points 8 months ago

It will one day become Greatest Albania

[-] Utter_Karate@hexbear.net 17 points 8 months ago

Bring back the version of Germany where every single outlined municipality was ruled by their own haemophiliac grand baron shaped like a snowman and they all made a living by shaving the precious metals off of each others' coins. Have the pope pick the one with the most impressive gout as the new emperor of the EU and make Ursula von der Leyen wait by their toilet around the clock to push the flush button when they are done, which is now the highest attainable office in the EU for someone with no Habsburg blood.

British Isles is an old colonial term that was invented to intentionally imply ownership of the islands by Britain.

It should be confided to the dustbin of history, not used in the modern day. Thankfully both the Irish and UK government do not use the term.

The Irish Minister for Foreign Affairs stated in 2005: "The British Isles is not an officially recognised term in any legal or inter-governmental sense. It is without any official status. The Government, including the Department of Foreign Affairs, does not use this term."

Instead we should use the Islands of North-Western France.

Otherwise the map is good, besides maybe this matter. Map for reference.

It should be just called "Atlantis"

[-] CascadeOfLight@hexbear.net 6 points 8 months ago

And referred to in the past tense.

Why doesn't Bavaria go to Austria? And why does Swabia have to stay with Germany and Bavaria? Do you even balkanize?

[-] cfgaussian@lemmygrad.ml 15 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

I would go even further. The southern half of so-called "actual Spanish territory" is actually Andalusian territory. As for "actual Germany", there is no such thing, or if there is it's just Franconia, as Swabia and the Rhineland have their own distinct cultures. And "actual France" should not include Burgundy or Gascony. And East Germany should be its own thing again, this time permanently...because reunited Germany has been a disaster.

[-] CannotSleep420@lemmygrad.ml 15 points 8 months ago

Italy is the most balkanized of these pictures. That's anti-Italian discrimination!

[-] sovietperson2@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 8 months ago

Italy is a fake country, and I say that as an Italian. Any hopes of cultural unification were squandered by the refusal of the Northern elites to implement Land Reform in the South after unification.

[-] thedarkfly@feddit.nl 7 points 8 months ago

Tbh every country is fake. I should know, I'm in one of the worst offender.

[-] Tarkov_Survivor@lemmygrad.ml 13 points 8 months ago

Spain should the southern half to Andalucía and we could split the north into separate Leon and Castille

[-] huf@hexbear.net 13 points 8 months ago

reminded me of this proposal from a hungarian party: https://ketfarkukutya.mkkp.party/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/kismagyar_high.jpg

translation:
SMALLER HUNGARY!

confused by stupid dialects?
tired of having to travel hours to get somewhere in your own country?
dont want to needlessly remember this many county capitals?
dont give a shit about baranya county?

let's give up the pointless border regions!

[-] Pili@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 8 months ago

Crazy that we decided that France is going to keep Elsass.

[-] Satanic_Mills@hexbear.net 12 points 8 months ago

Lack of ambition for England here, we should be looking at bringing back the Heptarchy.

Also Scotland should definitely be split between Lowlands & Highlands.

[-] Dolores@hexbear.net 12 points 8 months ago

no sicily doesn't get calabria & lecce, either two sicilies united or just the island.

and why is germany so unified anyway?

[-] The_Walkening@hexbear.net 12 points 8 months ago

Lol I feel like Normandy would immediately disown two islands full of Brtsh people

[-] SadArtemis@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 8 months ago

Inspired me to do my own take on the British Isles, tbh

[-] DankZedong@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 8 months ago

Is Birmingham important enough to warrant its own international city status?

[-] SadArtemis@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 8 months ago

Not really, but I figured the 3 most populous (and probably, considerably diverse) cities may as well get international city status. Also, the fact it makes England's borders ugly is a plus.

[-] SadArtemis@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 8 months ago

Finished it off-

Lower Saxony & "Actual German Territory" - looks like we could easily fit 1,495 more states in there

Why just Sorbia? Bring back Greater Pomerania you cowards.

There should be a Rhinelander state between France and Germany

Granada/Andalusian state in southern "Spain"

Independance for Balearic

Why is there only one Sicily? We could at least get a second Sicily, maybe three with modern technology.

If you are taking part of Germany to make North Frisia might as well balkanize Denmark and Lowlands as well for East/West Frisia; then Balkanize Frisia even further into its 10 constituent subdivisions.

[-] pinguinu@lemmygrad.ml 9 points 8 months ago

Damn, imperialist Catalonia taking Valencian Community and Balearic Islands but not Aragon

[-] DankZedong@lemmygrad.ml 9 points 8 months ago

Is there a reason why Ibiza and Mallorca would be part of Catalonia

[-] ledlecreeper27@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 8 months ago

Catalan is already an official language in those islands and most of the residents speak it fluently.

[-] Avnar@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 8 months ago

Thank you for not putting Franken into Baveria.

[-] sovietperson2@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 8 months ago

I can understand Brittany and Occitania but Normandy is culturally indistinguishable with most North French regions.

[-] lil_tank@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Yeah, my take on the French version is that actually the Paris region, surrounding departments and Normandy will be actual French territory while the great North (especially Picardie) and East (Alsace - Lorraine) will separate since they still have a bit of their own culture and language
