I, for one, support the Republic of Great Ireland and Northern Britain
On this map, you can see why Denmark's capital is Copenhagen. When Denmark controlled Scania and Schleswig-Holstein, it was much more centrally located than today. The borders of Denmark in this map correspond roughly to the borders before the Treaty of Roskilde.
Make Scania Danish Again
Seconded, if Danes would take the hot potato out of their mouth and start speaking proper Swedish. :p
The question is, do Scanians speak proper Swedish?
Depends, when actually speaking Swedish only with Scanian accent, they are ok to understand, but when switching to Scanian – impossible, but in a different way than the Danes.
You either want the danes, or you want someone else who doesnt speak danish, you cant have both
it's also weirdly accurate to where people might commute to copenhagen today
I think that these should not be straight lines regarding that the Earth is a sphere. Especially between Moscow and Helsinki.
it should also take into account transport feasability to at least some degree, like no one in their right mind would associate narvik with helsinki..
For railway, there is already some neat project for visualising the reach in a certain travel time from any city with a station. https://www.chronotrains.com/de/explore
this i an amazingly informative rendering.
What about Edin, bruh?
As a finn, I approve these new borders.
Suur-Suomi !
I’d much rather be ruled by my closest capital.
~~North~~ Macedonia
Vaduz? Did they just choose two cities for capital-less Switzerland?
Vaduz is the capital of Liechtenstein.
No, that is the capital of Liechtenstein
Where’s Edinburgh?
Scotland is part of the UK sadly
Scotland is one of the four countries comprising The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The others are England, Wales and Northern Ireland. Scotland’s capital is Edinburgh.
I fully support Scotland independence, however at this time it is a constituent country rather than a country, there is a slight distinction.
Hi, Well that’s very interesting. I learnt something today. Thank you for the link.
For the record though I am against independence for Scotland.
Superb way to illustrate.
Voronoistan Union
There's something funky going on north of valleta
what if the uk colonised europe
Those borders don't even line up with longitude and latitude! What is this, amateur hour‽
How did u make this
I don't know how NaytaData made it, but if I were doing it, I would do something like this:
I would use a computer but the same steps would work with paper & pen.
If the OP is using GIS, it can be even easier.
Your first two steps are spot on, but then step three could simply be to add a large buffer for each capital and use some and/or/nor/xor (I'd have to look up to be certain) rules to have the buffer zones not overlap, but end where touching. Apply a color scheme and you're in business.
I somehow don't understand this fully but love it
Interesting tall portugal
Cool map.
Though, Switzerland doesn't have a capital.
For the map enthused!
