And more specifically because the Sovyet rose in some isolation from your proposed state, within a then still partially extant Shieldian Empire but to Depkazia just across a largely unmilitarised sea. Chingiz got there first, and Chingiz acted decisively.
As to the wider conflict in Gallaga, well, Chingiz deployed airborne troops ahead of the Byzantine/your-lot advance so as to prevent significant progress in Gallaga without starting a shooting war, and they decided against starting a full-scale war given that a large portion of the Gallagan population appeared to be comparatively enthusiastic about the arrival of the Depkazis with whom they shared both Turkic and Islamic identities. Presumably the Gallagan Ghazis who were shooting at the Byzantines now instead shoot at your boys and with even more gusto given that these infidels are in occupation of much of the Holy Land- it's not just foreign infidels invading our land, it's foreign infidels who're occupying the Noble Sanctuary. Socialism won't -unfortunately- mean much to a largely uneducated population that's primarily focused on national and religious liberation and being plied with plenty of economic aid from a liberator of the same ethnicity and religion.
So, in short, I don't see a big problem in the field of AMW history so far as this application goes!

Walmington on Sea wrote:Yes, would parts of Norway and Sweden work? Try to find a slice that includes some of the Scandinavian Mountains and some viable agricultural land, along with a reasonable population? It should work culturally, given the presence of Nibelunc, Britain, Amberland, and the Shield in the surrounds. Split Scandinavia with Gandvik who was talking about re-annexing it, perhaps.
I think that the Gotaland and Svealand regions of Sweden and the Eastern, Southern, and Western regions of Norway would give about the desired population along with mountains in the west, rolling hills and heavy forests in the middle and north-east, and some farmland in the south and south-east, if I'm not completely ignorant about Scandinavian geography ((nervous cough)). Gandvik could swallow-up the frozen, little-peopled regions to the north and you'd both get a new neighbour. And there'd be no need for an isolated port cut-off from the mainland.
Edit: A quick look on Wikipedia suggests a population of 12,028,214 for the regions I've just listed, though those figures are a few years old so the total is probably a little higher today. Seems pretty close to the target!

They'd make the map look a little strange, I think, tacked onto Gandvik, which is what I'd be tempted to do if they weren't part of Councordia. Then again, I suppose there are any number of ways to explain that. As for Norway, does the claim include Finnmark, which is currently part of Gandvik, albeit far from an essential part?
As for Anahuac, eh, well, I guess, unless anyone's still very interested in what is going on there, it might be best just to wrap that side of things up. Have a few other ideas brewing, maybe none of them especially good, but ideas nonetheless!
Walmington on Sea wrote:The claim doesn't go within a few hundred miles of Finnmark, TCB. Councordia doesn't go much north of a line drawn from Åland, I think! Gulf of Bothnia is pretty much entirely Gandvian in this proposal.
Walmington on Sea wrote:Presumably the Gandvians easily conquered Scandinavia until they reached the bit where people actually live and Councordia put up a fight.
