How would you change the borders of Europe?

NOTE: THIS IS SOLELY A JOKE-ORIENTED THREAD. THE PURPOSE IS TO MODIFY THE GEOPOLITICS OF EUROPE, PURELY FOR FUN.

Essentially, the point is to take this map:

http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/3010/europes.png

and modify the map in whatever way you want, by using the "PaintBucket" tool in either Paint, Paint.Net, Gimp, or whatever image editing program you have.

You can then upload the image with an image hosting site. (There are many. Use whichever one suits you.)

Finally, you post the image on the thread, and make a comment in accordance to your modifications.

Remember, we want maximum humor, and minimum hate. :P

Reunite Yugoslavia, give Greece and Romania to Turkey, Poland blobs over eastern Europe, England controls Normandy and Aquitaine, Ireland is split into disunited counties, Morocco controls half of Spain, and Germany splinters into dozens of principalities.

All of Western and Southern Europe to Germany, beside the Nordic countries and the UK. They have proven to been reasonable and fair administrators with solid track record for fair governance and tolerance. Russia can have the East, as they likewise have a solid human right's record and are the only nation remaining in Europe who practice reasonable governance by agreement rather than force. Transnistria will be forced to remain independent in perpetuity.

Sorry about that. I just didn't want to get penalized by some western fanatic for not giving Kosovo its place on the map. :/

Well... let's see...

I would unify not only Ex-Yugoslavia, but the entire Balkans into one mighty Slavdom of peace and happiness.

Redraw the map to the 1917 borders and watch hilarity ensue.

Close, By all of Slavdom, I meant all of them, Russians poles Ukrainian etc. Also I mean that Flanders would be part of the Netherlands and that the Netherlands would still exist. ALso, I meant Austria being part of Greater Germany. Also the Real UK, not this Wales Scotland shit. And I count Finland as Scandinavia

Poland

To piss off the Germans

This map was designed to piss off the most people as possible:
Piss off the serbians by further balkanizing it
Piss off the greeks by giving it to turkey
Piss off the armenians by giving it to turkey
Piss off the Russians by making the Northern Caucasus part of Georgia
Piss off the Germans by giving it to Poland
Piss off the French by giving it to England
Piss off Russia by giving Karelia to Finland
Piss off all of the Arabs by greatly expanding Israel

And most importantly, piss off Hippo by giving Tampere, Finland to Russia :twisted:

I don't think Germans would mind the Polish part. Eastern Germany is silly and Bavaria doesn't even speak true German. 'tis the English occupied areas that are German.

DOS France, Albania, Slovenia, FYROM. Italy takes over Spain and the UK.

Constantinople.

The funniest thing would be if Russia took over Tampere, Finland.

Sounds ideal. Make sure to remove all their heavy industry.

Anyways, I'd keep them about what they are right now. With the addition of a few new countries, namely one for the Basques.

Quoting what Victoria II would say...

USA EUROPE! In fancy lettering.

But I would give Germany Western Europe, Austria Southern Europe, and Russia everything else.

Add chocolate fountains at border crossings.

How would you change the borders of Europe?
