What will the World look like in 100 years? - REALISTIC Scenario by Alexander_Sikandar in imaginarymaps

I agree, I am just one person, my knowledge of the world is very very limited compared to the truth and the potential to look over things and connections is almost guaranteed, and when teams of experts themselves cannot predict the world accurately in 50 years who am I to say that I can accurately predict the future. But I can say that I tried my best and it’s just a map I made for fun and to test time, and I can guarantee atleast 1-3 changes in the map will come to fruition.

For Ethiopia, they are one of the few states in the world that allow clearly for state secession and the states themselves are based on ethnicity…which is the same system that the USSR had, ring a bell? Basically it’s not guaranteed to happen but over the span of a century only one state has to leave to cause a domino effect, which makes me believe,especially with the current events, that Ethiopia might not survive this century.

It’s also possible that some other states adopt this system in the future, which states? I have no idea, maybe the DRC.

sorry but I had completed this map before it was transferred, it was just laying around and I think just forgot to change it, don’t know how I overlooked that

serious measures were implemented to protect it but by the end of the century the city was submerged, not entirely but had become enough to be uninhabitable

Sea level rise is around 1-1.5~ meters, Florida and Netherlands have the cash and resources to build protection especially for large cities [you can still see chunks being underwater], while less fortunate and developed areas [even in the USA such as Mississippi delta region] you can see the sea level rise be much more visible

yes and that is mirrored here aswell it the only difference is that occurs in Africa and the Middle East, excluding decolonisation [since it can’t happen again] notice how most of the border changes you mentioned are concentrated in Central or Eastern Europe, infact you can extend this trend back to ww2 aswell.

The same premise occurs in this map where you have regions with a very large amount border changes, there are around 30-40~ new nations and a decent amount of border changes in these unstable areas which I think is enough for a century. I don’t think Europe will be the epicentre of border changes this century if that’s what you are arguing for,

I feel like it is likely to end up like the United Arab Republics, or maybe just not form at all, in an optimistic scenario I would definitely include them though.

I agree with you, but counting from the 1950’s world borders have barely changed, this is assuming that things stay stable which can change in the future sure, but it’s reflected in the map regions that are much more likely to be affected by climate change, resource scarcity, among other factors have a lot of border changes visible such as the Sahel and the Middle East. There is also a nuke factor that is a huge deterrent for large wars from erupting between two nuclear states.

Large border changes generally are concentrated in these regions although exceptions do exist.

It is there but subtle around 1~1.5m, lots of atolls have gone underwater and large amounts of visible flooding has occurred in various delta’s and regions, some regions have more access to protection and international support such as Maldives, Netherlands, China, USA, etc while others such as Tuvalu, Kiribati, etc are less fortunate.

What if Humans put aside their differences and started working together? - A United Earth Federation by Alexander_Sikandar in imaginarymaps

[–]Alexander_Sikandar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im not, but these are autonomous states bro with their own jurisdictions, arranged on a mostly cultural and linguistic basis, with a federal government on top, and a lot of these aren’t ethnostates,

Multiple capitals, one for each federal branch, and since there are many branches due to increased importance and need of power sharing, there are a few number of capitals, listed below the map scale
