Pretty sure East Germany was just as legitimately a successor state to "Germany" as West Germany. Also, that's a pretty janky looking West Germany. I'll just link this map because it's interactive. Notably it includes Germany and Yemen as unified countries before unification. Also, apparently the Soviet Union broke up pre-1980? But perhaps the worst offense of all is that French Guiana, an integrated department of France is not given the same ease of doing business rank as France, while Kaliningrad, another discontiguous, but integrated region, is given the same rating as Russia. http://data.worldbank.org/indicator/IC.BUS.EASE.XQ?page=6&display=map

Farecoal posted:Wellllllll, technically the modern countries that once made up the Soviet Union were all republics inside it, so there was a Russia SFSR, Ukranian SFSR, Estonian SFSR. Of course its more likely that map is just lazy I may be incorrect on this, but it's my understanding that the SFSRs had much, much less autonomy than a US state does. I'm pretty sure the map is just lazy.

Phlegmish posted:At this rate, 600K would only last them a decade at most. Current demographic trends aren't set in stone, though. I can see Eastern European fertility rates going back up in the near future, which is what happened for native Western Europeans in the past two decades (except Germans). Still lower than the replacement rate, but enough to stave off complete demographic collapse. Another potential explanation for Germany not seeing fertility rates rise is that eastern Germans have maintained fertility levels of an Eastern European country. Considering that eastern Germany is more in line with Eastern Europe in terms of economic development, and the fact that like most Eastern European countries, eastern Germany has very few immigrants (who tend to have more children) it's not hard to see why Germany doesn't doesn't have Western European fertility rates.

marktheando posted:But a pick up truck and a wheelbarrow are very different? I don't think you have thought this comparison through. Bohemia was pretty well integrated into the Holy Roman Empire in both 1100 and 1200. Any idea why it wouldn't be on this map? Also, those are some pretty great maps.

Fandyien posted:The treaty of Tordesillas was written before anyone knew the extent of the globe in either direction, though, and was routinely ignored by the Spanish when it was politically expedient. So it just got more complicated the more poo poo people discovered. I don't think that's the best example of a clear delineation of borders. Both the Spanish and the Portuguese ignored or invoked Tordesillas when it was politically expedient. The treaty of Tordesillas has almost nothing to do with borders.

Civilized Fishbot posted:I love the addition of an independent Jewish nation sincerely calling itself "Hebrewland." It sounds like a theme park that's never open on Saturdays due to a lack of employees. There's some alternate reality where you can order "He-Brew the Beer Brewed in Hebrewland by Hebrews" YF-23 posted:There was a (slightly) higher res version of the map posted earlier in this thread I think: Is this by participation or TV numbers?
