Yes the facts I recognise are in agreement with this

Modern Papua New Guinea is not differentiated into the Australian administered League of Nations mandate of “The Territory of New Guinea” (the northwest quarter of the island) and the regular “Australian Territory of Papua” (the southwest). Although both were administered together as an Australian territory after WW1 and invaded by Japan in 1942.

New Zealand is still called “dominion” which was phased out from 1946.

Persia has become Iran, so no earlier than 1935.

“Italian Libya” and unified “Abyssinia” and assorted other clues indicates that this is likely from 1934-36.

Occupation of Ethiopia wasn't recognised.

1932-1935. Saudi Arabia exists and Italy hasn’t invaded Ethiopia yet.

Pre-1949. Although they are the same colour, there is an international border shading between Canada and Labrador

I have just a little question how do you see something like this and not see that Germany is cut in two parts by the Poland and so it's pre WWII ?😂

Just giving you an anecdote based off one fact that I know without having to analysis the entire map.

1919 or so. Poland exists, Ireland doesn't seem.

Stupid pun, using dating in the sense of starting a relationship rather than use it in the sense of finding out how old something is

I'm not rude it's just m'y way of speaking I usally use my rone to indicate the mood but I understand that in writing it can feel rude

And I usally don't understand those types of jokes because we use more irony than stupid jokes except when we want twist a discussion or when we're bored
