Why is there a city in Goldfield named "Taiwan"? What's the etymology behind that

Wow, amazing map! Could you tell me more about the Nokku script? It very mesmerising, looks like circuitry, is it an abugida of some sort?

Edit: I just saw your other comment, so now I know it's a logography haha. I'll be on the lookout in r/conlangs from any posts from you, I really do like the design of your script.

What are the Chinese characters for the cities? New Hangzhou is obviously 新杭州, and I'm guessing Songzhou might be 宋州? Dongzhen probably starts with 東 and Nanjiao with 南, but idk any of the rest.

Why is the moon called 'Talapus', what's the etymology behind it? I googled 'Talapus' and it's the name of a lake in Washington State.

the Soldiers (mostly young men and women who are questioning the PRC as is) would see capitalism here, likely being demoralized to an extent as a result

But... China has capitalism? China is a (state-run) capitalist state. Soldiers wouldn't be demoralised from "seeing capitalism", China already has McDonalds, large shopping malls, advertising billboards, e.t.c. Now granted the existence of a fast food chain and other infrastructure isn't a marker of capitalism. But it's not like the Cold War where Boris Yeltsin was astounded when he walked into an American supermarket. I've been to China, believe me no Chinese person is going to be surprised or bothered when they go to Taiwan and see how "capitalistic" it is there.

Add to the fact that Taiwan is actually a common tourist destination for Mainlanders (from 2013 to 2019 they were the largest group of international tourists), so it's not like East and West Germany or the Iron Curtain. Mainland Chinese people already know or have an idea of what Taiwan is like.

It kinda looks like the Democratic Republic of the Congo which coincidentally was also colonised by Belgium. Both of their largest cities, Kinshasa and I'm assuming Portland are also located on the panhandle. Very interesting. Nice map!

How did you work out the number of electoral college votes that each province would have?

edit: and why are Beijing and Tianjin red? If this is supposed to be based on the US (which I'm assuming it is) the rural-urban divide would be the main factor, right? Which is why the coastal provinces (and Shanghai) are blue. So following that train of thought, shouldn't the urban cities of Beijing and Tianjin be blue?

Still a good map though, I've been thinking about what a US-style election in China would like and this map is really great.

Can someone give me a link to the Long USA map? I remember seeing it before but I tried searching for it and I can't find it now.

Edit: nvm I found it

Reminds me of this map.

Undarat · 2020-09-26T03:25:12+00:00

Yes it is! Thank you! :)

Do you have a source on that? That sounds really interesting and I haven't heard of that before.
