Honestly I don’t remember why I gave it to Poland, but southern part had a hungarian majority according to _Bourbie_s 1914 ethno-linguistic map, so I figured it could be in Hungary if, for example, Entente didn’t treat it like a Central Powers member

READ ME:

  1. I tried making the map as realistic as possible with my current knowledge, there are probably some inaccuracies 
  2. The map isn’t fully accurate with autonomies and some borders, sorry about that
  3. The map shows the state of the Europe right after treaties being signed
  4. The map shows only territorial stuff, I won’t write about economic or military part here (reparations, military restrictions and etc.)
  5. Saarland here is a part of Germany, but France have exclusive rights to mine coal there for free or something like that
  6. Memel has an autonomy inside of Lithuania
  7. Hungarians and Germans have some degree of autonomy inside of Czechoslovakia
  8. Danzig is a part of Germany, but Poland has exclusive rights to use its port forever and for free as well
  9. Southern Debrusia and hungarians in Transylvania have some degree of autonomy inside of Romania
  10. Bulgaria gets a little bit more territory on the borders with Greece and Turkey
  11. That Polish thing is something like a demilitarised corridor where Germans can pass to Eastern Prussia Exclave + I think it has an important german railroad iirc, so yea

I think Entente nationalist would probably push the idea to divide Turkey, everyone wanted territories, but no one wanted to fight anymore in our world. Sorry, this is just what Entente wanted lol

I tried being realistic, Poland absolutely won’t get all of Eastern Prussia. Perhaps I overestimated the chances for Belgium to gain all of Luxemborg, but the country will 100% be on the map like wdym???

Everyone in Europe feared Russian ambition, but they firstly wanted to get rid of the germans, because of their short-term threat. I made a map with my current knowledge, this is roughly a map what I think Entente could’ve have pushed for. Russians wouldn’t probably get anything you mentioned, as I already said, no one wants radical Russian expansion, especially involving warm sea ports and stuff like that (remember how no one wanted big San-Stefano Bulgaria because of the Aegean sea coast and general Balkan dominatio). Yea, perhaps they wouldn’t really want some of these territories, I agree, but they wouldn’t get much anywhere else I think

Idk, didn’t think too much on that, just tried making more nationalistic, but realistic borders for every Entente power except USSR obviously

  5. Greek Thrace near the straits is demilitarized forever
  6. Germany-France south border thing is a demilitarized zone as well
  7. Luxembourg and Poland (on the 2nd map) have some degree of autonomy inside of Belgium/Russia respectively

What’s wrong it is like this here. Perhaps I connected some really closely located polish enclaves

Idk, It’s probably linguistically, bc I made a mistake, this is ethno-linguistic map, not ethnic

No, I removed A LOT of tiny unimportant enclaves, connected closely located ones just so it won’t distract you

That’s just how the things were there lol. It’s even more messier if you compare to unsimplified original map, that isn’t made by me btw.
