Labeling Gdingen (Gdynia) in pre WW1 map? It was just a small fishing village back then. It of course became one of the most modern seaports of the early 20th century, but it makes no sense to even show it on the map without independent Poland.
Is it me or only the micro-states, Belgium, the Netherlands, Portugal and Switzerland look exactly the same more than a century late? (Tunisia too but since it is not in Europe and was a colony at the time..), What a chaotic, terrible, XXth century (1st half much more so) this poor continent had. OTOH, it was almost entirely self-inflicted…
r/eu4 material
German wet dream
Would it still be like this if nothing happened in the next 40 years?
Hungary wet dreams!!!
WW1 Germany borders are so pleasing to look at.
Crazy how much has changed in 100 years.
Good times. When we didn’t touch tips with Greeks.
If only King Alexander took the original deal and never formed Yugoslavia we would have seen quite an interesting map.

[Incorrect Russo-Finnish border](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/J%C3%A4niskoski-Niskakoski_territory). I see this mistake on literally every ~~pre-WW2~~ pre-1920 map.
Norway looks very strange.
Dniper reservoirs 1960, 1927, 1950 looks nice )))
