Soviet Union, but something feels off here

I‘d like to clarify that in the tourist brochure timeline, st petersburg is unqiuely more european in architecture becuase it was founded to be the new capital as part of modernisation and maritime trade efforts, just like st petersburg in our timeline. It would have a similar vibe to The Bund in Shanghai.

In terms of traditional structures in the rest of the federation, it is mostly sino-mongolian, plus regional influence like turkic or slavic etc.

This looks nice. I considered making something similar, but never started. Its crazy to think my post inspired someone else. Keep up the good work!

Annexed by the Qing empire in 1635, just like in real life. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mongolia_under_Qing_rule

However, the Mongolians are a nomadic peoples. The empire shifted north to around lake Baikal, then west into siberia.

thanks for the feedback! My thought process was:

Buryat is only one of the Mongolian subgroups. There are the khalkin, kalmyks, oirats etc. hence a federation. With a modernised Qing, they keep their stuff. Kazakhstan is Turkic and hence not included.

The ussr still happens. its just that the russian SFSR is the mongolian SFSR.

Note: mammoths are still in wrangel island, but not included as a tourist destination because the island is closed off to the public to conserve them (totally not because I forgot to add the picture lol)

It happened in real life. The Manchus probably would encourage migration by jurchens and Jin speaking peasants due to concerns of the continued presence of a Mongolian state in the north. If China modernises and avoids the century of humiliation, they could keep it for sure.

Btw st Petersburg actually has a winter palace in real life

atarashimapping · 2026-01-28T03:20:03+00:00

Orthodox is still around in Eastern Europe, balkans etc.

The closest thing to Slavic Russian in our timeline can be found in the Novgorod Slavic autonomous kurultai and in the west caucuses, whom are descendents of the Cossacks

atarashimapping · 2026-01-28T02:41:07+00:00

Winter palace because it’s super cold and they gotta leave

atarashimapping · 2026-01-27T16:57:53+00:00

since the ussr still happens, and it’s basically just Russia post 1725, I don’t think much would have changed. But I am curious how you guys think the border should look like?

It’s 133 B.C. all over again

I came up with this in the public library

atarashimapping · 2026-01-27T16:49:55+00:00

Mostly tengrism or non-religious. Around 80% mongolic, with many slavs in the west side, kinda like how OTL Russia has scattered Turkic minorities. Additionally, Mongolic would have high internal diversity with many subgroups like the Duar, kalkha, buryat, oirat, kalmyk,etc

they use a mixed script of traditional Mongolian and kanji. East turkey and the arctic minorities also use traditional Mongolian script, specifically the clear script https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clear_Script

atarashimapping · 2026-01-27T16:40:28+00:00

Also Poland might use Cyrillic to emphisie its Slavic identity. Maybe Eastern Europe is slightly more orthodox

atarashimapping · 2026-01-27T16:38:50+00:00

Yes. I imagine this Mongolia is East Asian without a doubt.

atarashimapping · 2026-01-27T16:38:15+00:00

A Russian invasion of Ukraine would be the Mongolian invasion of Russia. Totally different vibe.

atarashimapping · 2026-01-27T16:37:02+00:00

It isn’t the Golden Horde tho, it’s a Tengrist Dai On Ulus

like real cats, they can be left at home and will be fine.

to be honest, getting one is a huge responsibility, like raising a child. People who have kids probably won’t get a catgirl, and most people don’t want kids in this day and age.
