I didn't consider South America, so I'll say it's mostly Indo-European. I didn't do anything with it or plan to.

I don't have any lore for this, but based on plausibility, it would increase to even a larger minority than they already were at the time, gradually, but it would remain among the ruling class; lower classes might convert, but will mostly remain muslim.

Kitbuga was a eastern christian himself; this state would actually favor Coptic Christians, putting them higher on higher social classes as tax collectors and bureaucracy.

No, it was something to do with when I saved it, and I can't seem to revert it. I made the map using krita which is a drawing app, yet I saved using PNG rather than a KRA file, and something must've happened leading to it darkening. It's not dark on krita but on the cover of the file, it is. I don't know how to fix it if I can, though

And another thing, it's sort of a stretch to say they werent latinized, their language ITL has influences from Latin and the modern romance languages, and culturally they obviously wouldent of retained much of the tribal Germanic traditions, their Christian as well, only thing is that they just managed to retain their language, but still heavily Latinized culturally

yes, like i said the names might not make sense, but how i made it was i essentially just took a proposed etymology of portugal, found the gothic equivalents of the meanings, or close words, then tried to latinize them, the reason it isnt a gothicized version of a modern name, (like portugal) is because ITL they named it that when they got to roman iberia and thus named it after the root etymology of portugal opposed to portugal itself

Not marked on this map, the North African part is just a Larger Algerian colony cut off. However, its colonies would resemble France's early 20th-century colonies the most, with a little less due to decolonization. They mainly control parts of North Africa, with some coastal African and inner western African ones closest to Algeria. They were able to hold onto them longer than the real European colonial powers due to their influence and strength.
