This is an idea I have had for a while, to see what would happen if North America looked more like Europe (mostly during the Victorian Era but with some modern elements as well). Here are some of the nations and what they are allegories for. Newfoundland = Iceland/Finland Quebec = United Kingdom Berkshire = Ireland North Star Empire = Russia Ohio Republic = Ukraine Adirondack = Crimea Illinois-Indiana = Austria-Hungary Kentucky = Switzerland Dixieland = Germany Zion = An evangelical mockery of the Papal States Missouri = Serbia Kansas = Kosovo Colorado = Slovenia Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Great Wyoming = Other Balkan States Texan State = Greece Salamanca Empire = Ottoman Empire Pacifica = Norway
