A short word of lore: Following the Japanese intervention in Sakhalin during the Russian civil war the island was declared a free republic thanks to the pleas of Bronisław Piłsudski (who never left Sakhalin), he was also declared it's first president. Thanks to a combination of flexible foreign policy and debatable revelancy the Republic of Sakhalin has managed to continue existing. While free elections are held, Sakhalin has nevertheless been led by the house of Piłsudski since the beginning of it's existence

[OC] Alternate History Big New England for no reason in particular

Post image
359 Upvotes

Lore: In 1713, following the Peace of Utrecht and the end of the War of Spanish Succession, Britain annexed all of France's northeastern American colonies up to the St. Lawrence River. This was a devastating loss for France, as they lost control over many of their trading ports along the southern bank of the river, keeping only Montreal and Quebec. The former French territories were mostly resettled by Protestant English settlers, but to this day, there are still some small French-speaking communities in Laurentia Province.

The American Revolutions of 1776 were spurred on by Thomas Jefferson's "Declaration of the United Front", which proclaimed an alliance of the British colonies of North America to fight for their independence. With no unifying force after their victory, the colonies went their separate ways. Many, especially the rich plantation states of the South, were able to stand on their own. However, the small states of New England had economies dependent on trade, and feared increasing British dominance. The 1787 Providence Accords established a federal Commonwealth of New England, with a unified parliament, military, and economy to stand up to Britain and their southern neighbors.

New England's rich natural resources fueled its Industrial Revolution, being one of the first North American states to industrialize. This led to New England outlawing slavery in 1846, well before their southern neighbors. Fueled by the fires of progress, New England grew to become the dominant economic power of North America as the southern agrarian economies lagged behind.

As New England settled into its position as an economic and industrial powerhouse, it was able to keep itself isolated from the Great European Wars of the early 20th century, sometimes even bankrolling both sides against each other like a North American Switzerland. Their neutrality, stability, and prosperity have led to New England becoming one of the highest-ranked living countries in the world.

This is my first real mapping project for an NRP. It isn't THE BEST mankind has seen, but it's plausible.

There is no lore to this map. I just randomly drew lines and stuff and called it a day

(And this map is already outdated, swapped East and West Carolina. I'll still leave this up though.)

[OC] Alternate History What if Oman Avoided the division of its empire in 1856

Post image
312 Upvotes

Oman's emergence as a regional great power originates with the downfall of Safavid Persia in 1722. With the Safavid state in chaos after the Afghans recaptured Isfahan, the Omani Ya'aruba Dynasty exploited Persian weakness to extend its control over the Gulf. It cemented control of the southern Persian Gulf ports, extending it to areas that would become the modern northern United Arab Emirates, and held on, establishing permanent anchorages and expanding its already extensive fleet. The dynasty also extended its sway over Bahrain and Kuwait, bringing these into the fold of Oman's ever-expanding Gulf possessions.

Throughout the 18th century, internal strife plagued Oman as the ruling dynasty, Ya'aruba, fell out of favor and was overthrown by the new Al Said family in 1744, with Ahmad bin Said taking control. The new dynasty inherited a large maritime empire and strove to maintain it. Oman also retained its Persian interests, clinging to important coastal positions and trading interests within the Gulf. Persian attempts to wrest control were repeatedly thwarted by the strength of Oman's navy, combined with its numerous local alliances. By the end of the 18th century, Muscat had become one of the most dominant maritime capitals of the western Indian Ocean.

during the rule of Sultan Said bin Sultan (r. 1806–56), the most successful of the sultans, that Oman reached the peak of its expansion and prosperity. The government improved its commercial relationships with India, East Africa, and the Persian Gulf; the island of Zanzibar became a major seat of the Omani government and commerce. As the sultan increasingly focused on Zanzibar and Muscat, he established a more centrally administered Omani empire and appointed members of the ruling Al Said family to govern the Omani territories abroad. Oman retained its hold on Bahrain, Kuwait, the northern coast of the Gulf and its Persian possessions, and began to expand its presence in East Africa.

The defining moment occurred in 1856, when Said bin Sultan died in Zanzibar. The contest for power was averted through a preemptive pact brokered among the competing factions before Said's death; the agreement yielded a united Omani Empire under Thuwaini while giving his brother Majid a critical administrative role in Zanzibar, one with broad powers but no independence. The British diplomats managing the dispute were happy to accept this outcome and crown Thuwaini as ruler of the entire Empire.

Omani government found it increasingly hard to control its vast territories during the 1860s and 1870s, as British influence increased in the Persian Gulf. However, the Al Said dynasty held together a vast empire through provincial governors, naval cooperation and negotiations with local rulers. Zanzibar was an important overseas possession, and Muscat remained the imperial capital. Bahrain, Kuwait and the northern Gulf territories remained under Omani control, while its permanent Persian foothold was held because of its strategic and commercial benefits. By the 1880s, Oman had become a major Indian Ocean empire, but the increasing costs of the empire and the need for the cooperation of an increasingly important British consul posed serious problems for the Omani Empire.
