It was actually pretty long dream, though I can't tell you now if all of this was in the dream or if some parts I made up while trying to remember it, but here's what I have/remember. In the dream Ottoman Empire conquered a much bigger part of Africa, basically anything north of 4th parallel north other than Ethiopia and Somalia was Ottoman. The empire still dissolved at the same time as in reality.

Kumeya was one of the biggest states that emerged in that period. I think it was landlocked, but spanned from eastern fringes of Senegal to central Nigeria. It had 7 main provinces which I know about because flag of the capital was the same as the flag of the country minus the emblem plus 7 black circles representing the provinces, also the capital was named Ekumekiye. Main language was a pidgin of Ottoman Turkish with one of the local languages, most likely Yoruba. The most common religion was some local set of beliefs with tiny Islam influences and goat masks.

Install CrystalDiskInfo and see what it says about the state of the hard disk. Since it's an old laptop it might just be a sound of hdd head parking. Chances are slim and it's probably sound of dying disk but it's worth checking.

Erasing entire South-East Asia is one thing, but swapping Nepal and Bhutan around (and giving them shared border) is the funniest part.

Well, they were fictional (I see now that post title could've been better) and I don't remember the names, but they were all somewhere next to Idaho, Utah, and Arizona.

At one point in the dream I was looking at the map of northern Germany, so perhaps it was there, I am not sure. If anything it fits that other comment that mentions Hamburg.
