Anno Nubarnis

Anno Nurbanis
Much of the world's modern countries are now divided, allowing smaller ones to grapple for influence which would have otherwise been theirs. Colonial empires still stand strong and many nations remain unchanged in a world frozen for a single year, allowing numerous governments to never progress beyond their as-of status of yesteryear.

Africa

 * The Anglo-Boer War in South Africa never occurs, allowing the OTL RSA to remain divided into Afrikaner "Boerstaats", a Cape Commonwealth nation, and a separate Zulu state.
 * Botswana remains divided into an independent nation and a southern British protectorate.
 * German Kamerun (Cameroon) is allowed to remain a semi-autonomous republic leagued to Germany following World War I. It becomes the Timeline's apartheid pariah due to its policy of maintaining white supremacy.
 * South West Africa (Namibia) is now ruled by an unrecognized settler-led regime headed up by the Democratic Turnhalle Alliance.
 * Zimbabwe is led by a moderate biracial government headed up by Bishop Abel Muzerowa.
 * Angola's Marxist government is toppled by a right-wing revolt led by the 400,000-strong Portuguese population, which proceed to install a rightist military dictatorship.
 * The Congo Free State, nominally an independent nation, is a Belgian-dominated protectorate controlled by Brussels. It continues to use the Belgian Franc.
 * Somaliland becomes a stable, model, democracy led by a moderate government.
 * Kenya becomes independent only under white minority rule.
 * Ethiopia remains a Communist dictatorship and one of the Soviet Union's closest client states in Africa.
 * Nigeria becomes a commonwealth realm, an independent union bound to Great Britain.
 * The Islands of Refreshment become an unrecognized micronation such as OTL Sealand.

Middle East

 * The Federation of Southern Arabia continues to dominate the southern Arab states.
 * The Armenian nation of Cilicia survives to present day. Also known as South Armenia.
 * The County of Tripoli, a European-ruled Crusader state, survives to present day supported by the Vatican. It gradually evolves into an Israel-type pariah in the Arab Middle East.
 * Syria enters into a federation with Lebanon and remains closely bound to its former administrator, Frankistan (France).

Asia (Outside the Middle East)

 * India becomes a commonwealth realm, similar to Nigeria.
 * European powers have carved out their own territories in China, and Holland administers Formosa (Taiwan).
 * The Khanate of Khiva continues to present day.
 * Georgia remains divided between an independent, unrecognized Georgian state and the Soviet-backed Transcaucasian Socialist Democratic Republic, which controls most of Georgian lands, OTL Armenia, and Azerbaijan.
 * The Sultanate of Sulu remains the only absolute monarchy in Southeast Asia.
 * The Principality of Kalat remains an independent portion of Pakistan, the only part of former British India to retain sovereignty.

Europe

 * Scandinavia remains united under a Kalmar Union, and is a constitutional monarchy over a federation.
 * Crimea remains autonomous as the Soviet client state of the Crimean People's Republic.
 * The County of Foix survives until present day, retaining a Monaco-type agreement with Frankistan.
 * Germany remains divided into a patchwork of seventeen separate states following the Great War (Waged by a German-type Napoleon)
 * The Austrian Empire survives to present day, continuing its domination of Hungary.
 * Czechoslovakia becomes a model Socialist oneparty state and constitutional monarchy.
 * OTL Italy is divided into nine different nations, including the Papal States, which survive to modern day. The Italian Unification is crushed in its infancy.
 * The Duchy of Courland survives to modern day as a European microstate.
 * The Free State of Fiume and the Free State of Ragusa exist as enclaves in Yugoslavia.
 * Granada, granted as a fief to the Spanish nobles who vanquished the previous Moor emirate there, remains an autonomous monarchy.

Americas

 * The United States remain divided, including several autonomous enclaves, microstates, and republics. In 1984, (Excluding the autonomous American enclaves) the US proceeds to establish a Liberal Socialist government based on Leninist principles.
 * The Federal Republic of Central America holds together to present day, fighting off violent separatist movements, a failing economy, Communist rebellions, and a series of military dictatorships until it is considered a failed, albeit still legal and recognized, state.
 * Most of the Caribbean islands are united under a West Indies Federation linked to Great Britain as a commonwealth realm.
 * Brazil overthrows Portuguese rule and establishes a Marxist dictatorship supported by most neighboring states and opposed by Paraguay, South America's wealthiest military power.
