    This respects too much the cultural borders

        The funniest way to handle the baltics on one of these would be to make one state out of the coastal halves of all three, and one state out of the inland halves of all three, and graft a majority-Russian area onto both of them.

    African borders were usually drawn according to rivers or easily defined natural barriers, straight lines were only drawn by Europeans if the land was considered “unprofitable” like the sahara desert, so drawing straight lines everywhere is more a pop-historical understanding of the african border issue or more applicable to the us :biggus-piggus:

          They think that if colonized peoples are allowed to use violence against their colonizers that the colonized will enact the same level of violence on the colonizers and that's bad because they realize they're the colonizers. "I'm only the beneficiary of this system, don't be mean to me when you seek to undo it!!!"

          When she was attempting to talk about decolonization he kept interrupting her with "So you want to kill all white people?"

      Way to accurate. Mashing the 1789 German states (each with their own culture, language even) into what is Germany nowadays could in itself be considered a colonial act. The people were never asked anyway

    None of the countries they let keep existing deserve it. Except maybe for Cyprus. Not because I actually think they deserve it, just because I know nothing about Cyprus except that their flag is literally just a picture of Cyprus, which I consider an endearing lack of imagination.

        nice. I hope we won't have to war with Javanese Brittany

        Another unappreciated quirk is that all these countries would have their own little names that are anachronistic from the natives names. Like how Sri lanka was "Ceylon" and Taiwan "Formosa"

        I don't know enough to come up with one for every part of the world, but in Indian English it's common to call brits "Britishers". So I reckon Britain would be called something like "Britisheristan", with its capital being "Londopur"
