I've made a map! Damn I'm proud.



Yes I know that maps looks extremely shitty compared to what MARS or other professional photoshoppers regularly do but that's the best I could do.
Okay, maybe some backstory for what on Earth this is:

The red parts of the map represent the European Coalition, officially the Socialist People's Co-Prosperity Coalition of Europe. Fancy right? Basically, the Axis wins World War II, yatta-yatta, but then all of a sudden the Wehrmacht does a 180 since they have no-one to fight they depose of the evil Nazi Party and transforms the Greater German Reich into a more benevolent, not-fascist-but-still-totalitarian confederation/coalition/alliance of European nations and occupied territories. Basically, the German Empire and her commissaries represent a confederation, right, and the allied nations stand with them to form a coalition against foreign threats (behold the south-east corner). This map is from before the disastrous Euro-American War of 1992, after which they had to give independence to a whole lot of Eastern European nations. Hrm.

But anyway, the German Empire is the heart and brain of this Coalition. She holds 13 seats in the Parliament, and the Chief Minister may only be German, right, and only in Germany is national conscription in the Eurowehr enforced, which makes sense since it has the biggest population. Despite being the one that leads everything, anything referring to the Coalition or even just Germany is usually called 'European', or 'Euro' for short.

Then there's the allied nations which joined them up because what else would they do? They are, in descending order of strength and influence: Spain, Turkey, Finland, Transromania, Sweden, Greater Hungary, Bulgaria, Portugal, Ireland, Rome, Milan and Venice. They all individually hold 7 seats in the Parliament and elect a Representative Minister to rule their own land. People of these nations are not forced to enlist in the Eurowehr but anyone that does sign up to the army are transferred to Germany for training regardless.

There's also the matter of commissaries, who are an unusual bunch. They are, essentially, ruled by Germany except they have their own commissars elected by the people yet the ones they can elect are chosen by Germany, so it really doesn't matter. In decreasing order of permanent military presence: Eastslavia, France, England, Italy, Norway, Caucasus Republic, Kazakhstan, Greece, Scotland, Flanders, Baltic Union, Wallonia, Wales, Palestine, Denmark, Italian Tripoli and Albania. People here are not conscripted except in wartime when cannon fo- er, reinforcements are running low, which happened a lot during the Euro-American War, to say the least. Should they decide to revolt they become:

Occupied territories are the bad-boy lands that just don't want to submit to German might, would you believe that? What the Eurowehr does to these dissidents is strip away their freedom to vote, lock down the border and not let anyone out until they behave again. Shame on you! They are, in descending order of riots-per-hour: Yugoslavia, Ukraine, Netherlands, Brittany, Lombardia and Algeria. These people are, during wartime, forced to work in factories since what else are they supposed to do with them? They cannot enlist because giving a gun to people that don't like the one giving the gun is a bad idea.

Finally, we have Switzerland, which was never invaded and only pretends to be part of the Coalition so the map would look complete. There you have it.

Iceland is United States territory, in the process of becoming the 53rd state, ever since Operation Oakwood where several hundred thousand US soldiers landed on Iceland and Greenland and took it for themselves. What a bunch of land-grabbers!

The Empire of Persia has been free from European dominance since the end of WW2. Nazi Germany thought it'd be wise to let them do what they want which was, suffice to say, a very big mistake. They proceeded to, over several decades, expand into Arabia and conquer Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait and Sinai and now holds the entire Arabian Peninsula as their puppets. Turkey was originally not part of the Coalition but joined them in fear of Persia. The bulk of the Eurowehr is stationed at the border and regularly conduct corpse-duty; cleaning up the bodies of dead civilians trying to crawl under the electrified fence. What a disgusting world...

But yah that is basically it if anyone is interested in knowing more about this alternate history scenario feel free to comment.
