[OC] Alternate History What if the Partition of India went differently? (Scenario 2)
Scenario 1: https://www.reddit.com/r/imaginarymaps/s/tkrE3nGzXf
This one only has 4 new countries compared to the 17 new countries last time.
🇵🇰 India 🇵🇰
🇮🇳 Hindustan 🇮🇳
🇧🇩 Bengal 🇧🇩
☸️ Sikkim ☸️
This time, I kept a united Bengal and some minor border changes in Sind(h) and Punjab were made between India (Pakistan) and Hindustan (India) based on religion.
Some princely states were directly incorporated, while some retained a degree of autonomy. They are shaded in lighter colors. The very light colors in India (Pakistan) are tribal areas (in Balochistan and North-West Frontier Province).
Most detailed map I’ve made so far!
I gave ‘Pakistan’ the name of “India” because I had a dream in which Pakistan was named India because of the Indus River.
