Korea strong
Whenever I see this, it always amazes me that they were so close to winning. Just a little bit further, and they would taken Moscow.
Shifting the offensive towards Stalingrad was the mistake.
anyone else like looking at maps from world war 1?
If they succeeded, history would probably remember the Germany army as the greatest of all time, and the war of 1939-1941 as legendary on a level of Alexander’s conquest of Persia.
muh Jomon
Is that giving Constantinople to fucking Bulgaria?
Its in the neutral zone
Neutral Zone.
>The Constantinople Agreement (18 March 1915) was a set of secret assurances made by the Triple Entente during World War I. France and Great Britain promised to give Constantinople, the capital of the Ottoman Empire, and the Dardanelles (land on either coast in Thrace and Asia Minor), which at the time were part of the Ottoman Empire, to the Russians in the event of victory. The Greek government was neutral, but in 1915 it negotiated with the Allies, offering soldiers and especially a geographical launching point for attacks on the Straits. Greece itself wanted control of Constantinople. Russia vetoed the Greek proposal.
>The UK and French claims were both agreed all sides also agreeing that the exact governance of the Holy Places was to be left for later settlement.
Pretty gay the UK and French ended up just giving it to Turkey. It should have gone to Greek or been made into an independent country, like Cyprus is now.
I see, thanks ;_;
I come to you bringing the DYMAXION MAP (fuller projection)
>Muh proportions
Maps that aren't either an ellipse or a rectangle/square are autism. Period.
Are globes autism, user?
You're forgetting that the Dymaxion map can be folded into a icosahedron (d20). Can you fold your square / ellipsoid maps into something at least halfway resembling a globe? 20 polygons isn't going to produce the best sphere but it's still more accurate than the square maps.
A map is by definition 2d. Globes are literally an entirely different dimension of understanding the world.
If any of those "international zones" existed, the EU might not exist today. Or it might exist and it'd be HQ'd there, making German its dominant language instead of English and French.
>Implying everything would calmly end with Germans arriving in Moscow
Shit would turn into more hardcore Stalingrad
This is awesome
>2 weeks to go from barcelona to rome
Is this for real?
Prior to the 1266 Treaty of Perth, the Western Isles of Scotland were controlled by various Norse and Gaelic rulers who owed their allegiance to the Kings of Norway rather than the kings of Scotland.
So removed from Scottish control were these islands that the Norse/Gaelic rulers referred to themselves as 'King of the Isles' (in Gaelic, 'Ri Innse Gall'). From the origins of these semi-autonomous island kingdoms the 'Lords of the Isles' would emerge.
The headquarters for the Lordship was unusual but highly symbolic – an island within an island. A small island in Loch Finlaggan on the island of Islay was chosen as the administrative centre for the disparate islands and clans that owed allegiance to the Lords of the Isles.
Does Veeky Forums like Bioregions?
Laurentian is comfy, I live in it. Little humid tho.
Taking Moscow would have done nothing, effectively. The Russians have pressed on despite losing their nominal major cities and capitals before. If anything they'd just swarm into Germany and completely ignore the German line.
Thanks for the info.
Have a really cool map.
>there's people who still believe this
Well done Ireland you really gave it a good shot
They could only sail via coasts back then, going by the open sea would have taken years.
How... Egypt should have the best

2/10, really fucking cliche
Map from the 1500s showing a depiction of Antarctica 300 years before “first sighting” in 1820.
They included that cuz they theorized long ago that there was a large landmass in the southern hemisphere that balanced out the Northern one. Called it Tierra Austral which is Latin for Southern Land.
>or been made into an independent country, like Cyprus is now
agreed

heh pretty cool
I know that, but the Terra Australis depicted in that map is eerily similar to the actual Antarctica. You see the Terra Australis on most maps to be completely made up, but this one looks close enough to reality.
All the known Ancient Roman aqueducts
Tbh I didn't know China was so fucking mountainous
>Aqueduct in Scotland
Huh?
Were the ancients stupid?
Is Prussia putting its dick in an organ grinder?
>ancients
America is on that map
Yeah, what did he mean by this?
The map puts an (?) in it I don't know why it's there either, it's also missing the aqueduct of Nimes in France
These ones are too big for Veeky Forums's filelimit

This is incredibly advanced it must be fake

>The Kalmyks, who form the majority of the republic and for whom the region is named, descend from the Oirat Mongols that migrated from Dzungaria in 1607 and established the Kalmyk Khanate (1630–1724) before they were eventually incorporated into the Russian Empire in the context of the Russian conquest of the Caucasus
they are basically the remnants of the Golden Horde
Aside from everyone speaking Russian, if you walked around in Elista you'd assume you were in Mongolia or Tibet
>implying russians just give up when you take their cities
Yeah tell that to Napoleon, Hitler would've been blead dry as he would have to wage an endless war against soviet forces in siberia
>Letting Austria still exist
that's not meant to be accurate retard
