    Alternate History Map Starter Pack:
    - Make every separatist movement an independent country.
    - Bring back or retain dissolved unions or countries.
    - Make countries that lost wars the winners.
    - Return lost territories.
    - Weird small country or micro state in the middle of nowhere or inside a bigger country.

    Guys, the USSR stands for Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Not Union of Soviet Sovereign Republics. The Union of Soviet Sovereign Republics was a proposed treaty in 1991 to reform and salvage the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. It never came to fruition because the day before it was supposed to take place the August Coup happened.

    Well, There is a little man-made chanal in Germany, that's connecting the baltic and north sea that was build round about 1890. It's called the Kiel-chanal, it is the most used aritficial waterway these days and it took about 8 years to build with the tools of the time. And since that Ireland idea was proposed around the time the chanal was made, the artist might have been inspired by this.

      Actually both the Panama Canal and the Suez Canal see significantly more traffic than the Kiel Canal, though I’m not exactly sure which sees more overall. Regardless, the Kiel Canal is almost certainly the third most travelled man-made canal in the world.

      @@corneliusmcmuffin3256 Ok, that's wrong. I looked it up before I wrote my comment, so despite the fact that the other canals pass more percent of the global seetrade moneywise, I was talking about ships and there, Kiel-canal is number one. Roundabout 30000 ships pass through the Kiel chanal in a year, 18829 ships pass through the Suez canal and "just" 13700 ships pass through the Panama canal. The ships going through Suez and Panama are a lot bigger but there are tons of smaller ships that don't have to cross entire oceans to deliver their goods.

    1:37 i mean (correct me if I'm wrong) South Africa always relied of naval routes more than land ones, even being the reason the VOC founded the Cape colony in the first place and being a large factor in the first capture of the colony by the British in order to deprive France of the opportunity of such a strategic trade route. if anything having more greenery up in the northern cape might help the RSA economically considering the vast amount of fertile land. it would be interesting to suppose from a botanical standpoint i think because of the potential affects it might have on the fynbos of the western cape. also probably would change ethnic distribution a large amount considering the inhospitality of the KZN area. sorry for this being disjointed and long winded but im just a cape townain sharing my thoughts
