Excerpt from: Reverse Map Game 2019
Africa
War has hit the various colonial territories hard. It would take decades for recovery to take place. Despite the fact that the peace treaty allows Germany to annex Katanga, the United Kingdom maintains a claim on it.
Spain looses most of Somalia.
The Netherlands loose Kenya.
Europe
With the UK Government maintaining claims upon Iceland and the Faroes, they retaliate by claiming a portion of Norway (which had voted more than 50% DEM), Bermuda and Queensland.
Ireland
Independence from the United Kingdom is achieved, but without Northern Ireland, where there was a large Loyalist Protestant propulation (as opposed to the primarily Catholic population elsewhere).
Netherlands
Forced to cede some border regions and some colonies to Germany.
France
Forced to cede the Saarland and Alsace-Lorraine to Germany.
Spain
Forced to pay reparations to Italy, Mexico and the United States.
Germany
The European power that comes out the best of the war.
Italy
Hasn't been hit that hard by the war. There have been only skirmishes over the border with France.
Russia
Allows the Sami and the Finnish to have independence. Also cedes from territories to the Intermarium.
Asia
Iran annexes the Indus Valley from the Raj.
The Taungoo retake some of the concessions from the defeated French, and annex some territories from the Raj.
China
The warlord era continues. The PRC gains more territory.
Japan
The government surrender comes as a shock. The American victory had come as a massive surprise. There are massive protests in Tokyo from the moment the surrender occurs. The Prime Minister resigns, but that isn't enough. Reforms are demanded. An election is called, followed by a constitutional convention...
Oceania
Australia hadn't escaped the war. The remnants of New England are absorbed into Queensland. Denmark annexes the conquered territories, including the British Northern Tasmania, into their colonial confederation.
The Indo Kingdom annexes West Papua.

Reverse Map Game 2019 - 1926
1926
North America
Here as elsewhere, the end of World War II is greeted with a sense of relief. The most destructive war so far in history is over.
Canada
A separate peace is reached with Denmark, Great Lakes and Cascadia. Large tracts of territory are signed over in the treaty. Nordamerika is expanded north-eastwards. The province of Minnesota-Wisconsin is annexed to Great Lakes as East Minnesota. The province of South Columbia is annexed to Cascadia as Columbia.
Cascadia
The victory over the United Kingdom and Japan emboldens those in the Elite who are of a militaristic bent...
Dakota
Despite having only engaged in skirmishes along the border, the end of the war is welcomed.
Great Lakes
The success of the Great Lakes armies only emboldens the Council (and a certain Charles Coughlin) in the perceived superiority... The annexation of East Minnesota will prove to be problem in the next several years.
United States
The peace treaty is signed with Japan and the United Kingdom by early March. (See below.)
The Midterms are particularly tumultous, as the economic repercussions of the end of the war play out.
Virginia, Chihuahua, Jefferson and California gain statehood by the end of the year.
Despite British responsibility for the peace treaty (see below), it is the Virginian Government that votes to join the United States.
Florida
The Venetians annex the former Spanish, Portuguese and British colonies into Florida.
Mexico
Sinaloa and West Durango become states by the end of the year.
South America
The repercussions of Spain's defeat begin to be felt immediately...
Africa
War has hit the various colonial territories hard. It would take decades for recovery to take place. Despite the fact that the peace treaty allows Germany to annex Katanga, the United Kingdom maintains a claim on it.
Spain looses most of Somalia.
The Netherlands loose Kenya.
Europe
United Kingdom
With it obvious that the Imperial League is losing, Parliament instigates a motion of no confidence in Prime Minister Oswald Mosley. Even the backbenchers in the Imperial Party vote against him. The main reason is the Irish Rebellion. The Rebellion had come as a great shock. Ireland was one of the oldest parts of the United Kingdom, as much a part of Greater Britannia as Pictland, Scotland, Wales, or any part of England.
The next reason is the terms of the peace treaty with Denmark. Referenda in Norway, Norrland, Greenland, Iceland, The Faroes and Shetland, to remain as part of the United Kingdom, or to be annexed to Denmark.
The results were unexpected. Especially in Greenland, Iceland, the Faroes and Norrland, where the electorates voted to join Denmark.
70% DEN – Greenland.
53% DEN – Iceland.
55% DEN – Faroes.
75% GRB – Norway.
72% DEN – Norrland.
80% GRB – Shetland.
There Motion of No Confidence passes. Mosley tries to remain as Prime Minister, but the Imperial Party backbenchers vote overwhelmingly to remove him as Party Leader, and therefore as Prime Minister. However, they vote in the hapless Samuel Beckett IV as Prime Minister. He mishandles the recovery from the war, including the peace treaty with the United States and Venice. Both Virginia and British Florida are ceded as a result.
An election is called later in the year, and the Liberal Democrats trounce the Imperial Party, leading to David Lloyd George becoming the next Prime Minister. It is the Lloyd George Government that maintains the claim upon Iceland and the Faroes (and Katanga see above) given the near parity of the referenda.
Denmark
The Danes had grown war weary over the years of war. They may have been winning, but their victory would be pyrrhic. With the other Allies ready for peace, the government agrees to stop the fighting.
In pursuing the peace treaty with the United Kingdom, the government decides upon the plebiscites, figuring that just taking the Nordic countries would be a recipe for disaster, given that they would then be governing resentful populations.
With the UK Government maintaining claims upon Iceland and the Faroes, they retaliate by claiming a portion of Norway (which had voted more than 50% DEM), Bermuda and Queensland.
Ireland
Independence from the United Kingdom is achieved, but without Northern Ireland, where there was a large Loyalist Protestant propulation (as opposed to the primarily Catholic population elsewhere).

Daria - A Different Look at 1111 (2)
An Unfashionable Journey
It was an ordinary Saturday early in the Fashion Club's sophomore year and Quinn had invited them over for weekend activities.
Quinn came downstairs wearing a cute frilly dress she had bought at Cashmans the previous afternoon.
Sandi was jelous! She grabbed the nearest copy of Waif and said “Gee, Quinn. Didn't you know that frills are out this season?”
“Oh no! I bought a frilly dress too!” Stacy cried.
“Thats sooo wrong!” Tiffany said.
Quinn stared at Sandi. She had read that copy of Waif. There was nothing about frills going out of fashion in there.
“Of course, Sandi,” she said. 'There has to be some way I can refute her claim without jeopardising my position,' she thought. Then it hit her. The weirdness of the house! She dashed to the kitchen. “I have realised that I have to get something out of the garage,” she said.
“Right,” Sandi said. She got out of the couch, as did Stacy and Tiffany.
Quinn got to the door to the garage, and then performed the sequence that would bring up the dining room. 'Not that I would ever admit it of course,' she thought.
“What is that rumbling?” Sandi asked as she came towards Quinn.
“Rumbling? What rumbling?” Quinn said. She heard the thump behind the door and opened it. She went into the dining room.
“Wasn't theere a garaaage in there?” Tiffany asked.
“There was always a dining room here. We go through it to get to the garage,” Quinn said.
Sandi gave Quinn a dubious look as she stepped into the room and switched on the light. Quinn then dashed out of the room. She closed the door, and then opened and closed it again.
“What are you doing?” Stacy asked.
“Wait, Stacy,” Quinn said, as she pulled out an empty drawer. She heard a click and then closed the drawer again. The rumbling from earlier could be heard.
“Let's go up to my room,” she said.
“What about Sandi?” Stacy asked.
Quinn gave an innocent smile, “She will be up in about five minutes,” she said.
“Ok,” Stacy said, wondering what Quinn just got Sandi into.
“Where's Sand-di?”
A few moments after Quinn had dashed out of the room and fiddled with the door, Sandi felt a jerk.
“What was that?” she asked herself. She looked out the window, and saw that the room was going downwards into the ground. “That's like, not possible!”
She turned towards the door, only to find a wall panel where it had been. She screamed. 'What is happening.'
A few moments later there was another jerk as the room came to a rest in the sub-basement.
'It has stopped moving, but how can I get out and back up to ground level?' she thought. She turned to the doors that would have lead to the garage. 'Nothing to loose.' She tried to open them, but they were locked somehow. They wouldn't budge.
She looked at the window. All she saw were bricks, the same colour as the above ground part of the house. 'There is one more possible way.'
She turned to the wall panel at the place where she came in and charged it. “AAAAAAGGGHHHH!”
The panel gave as she slammed into it and slid to the side. She fell to the floor in an adjacent corridor. A bank of lights automatically came on.
“Better than nothing,” she said as she got up and brushed herself off. She walked along the corridor, breifly looking at various parts of rooms also stored on that level. She came to a ladder going up, as she passed the room that she had arrived in. 'Also, like, better than nothing,; she thought. As she looked up, more lights came on along the space of the ladder, at least four. She started climbing.
When Sandi came to the top of the ladder, she found that there was no further way out. 'What is the point of it then?' she wondered. She then noticed what looked like a hatch going further up. “Sure why not?” She pulled on the latch.
Suddenly the ladder jerked upwards and Sandi fell aside. “Woa-oah.”
She found herself lying on her back in the Morgendorffer's attic. “Ok, how to get out of here, and down to the floor with the bedrooms?” She looked around, and saw two hatches on either side of the attic. “That's helpful!” She decided to try the one further away from the chimney. 'It is the one closer to Quinn's room, afterall.”
After much figuring out of how to open an attic hatch from the attic side, Sandi slammed open Quinn's bedroom door.
“Quinn! That was a most terrible experience!”
“Sandi, I read that issue of Waif, and it had nothing about frills going out of style,” Quinn said.
“Thankgoodness!” Stacy said.
“Oh! But that is no excuse,” Sandi said.
Quinn then apologised, but didn't say that she wouldn't do it again.
