Deletion: Nasser of Arabia
I recently came across an AltHist term, ASB. Pretty much, it means to create a POD which is implausible. Well, Nasser of Arabia in IMHO has been a big ASB for me to figure out. Because of which, I am deleting the timeline. But I am going to keep the files for my records here.

"I am sorry. I wrote about it here, but I got deleted it primarily because I feel it was an ASB timeline. I just came across the word, it means "." Pretty much it means to create a POD which is impossible. After years of trying to have it work out, I can't get it to. IMHO, the Arab world is too complex and diverse for a completely pan-Arab state. I couldn't figure out how to have the Arab monarchies agree to become republics, I couldn't figure out how to correctly divide the states, and as recent history shows, it might not have been successful for long. Recently, VENEZUELA made mention that Lebanon should not be part of this nation, as it was primarily made as an Arab Maronite state (not Islam). That, and recent events in Egypt, Tunisia, and other Arab states, it is too confusing for me to work out. --NuclearVacuum (Talk) 19:37, January 30, 2011 (UTC)"

States of Alaska
Alaska is a federation made up of sixteen states.

Historically, Russian America (the first incarnation of Russia's claim) acted under direct government of the Russian-American Company. After the victory in California and Oregon, Tsar Alexander declared the reorganization of Russian America to ease government. Fort Ross and surrounding regions would become the Ross Oblast. New Archangel, Pavlovskaia, and Unalaska were also reorganized into oblasts. Over the decade, more oblasts would be organized. All the oblasts of America would later be organized into the "American General Governorate," which acted as a military alliance between these oblasts. Many of the original oblasts would be divided to create more as populations grow. When Britain's claims are sold to Russia in the 1860s, they remain undivided until the end of the Empire.

With the beginning of a new century, Russian America would gain independence. The oblasts north of 54-40 would become the "Commonwealth of Alaska," with the remaining becoming the "Commonwealth of Oregon."

When the Empire falls into revolution, Russian America goes into semi-conflict. Oregon becomes a republic overnight, while Alaska remains loyal to the white government in exile and the royal family. Alaska would be divided between democracy and communism in only a few years. Oregon attempted to retain its full power over its region, which would lead to the collapse of the Oregonian government. New Albion and Sonoma split off of Oregon, with Oregon agreeing autonomy and equality for the Anglophonic east in order to prevent it from also seceding. These independent nations would later agree to reunite in a federation of states. Over the years, many of these states would divided into new states, and so on.

Gagauz SSR?


What was the border of the Gagauz Republic around 1991? is currently an autonomous region within, and is made up of four enclaves. But maps like this one and and this one seems to suggest that Gagauzia was once a single entity, while maps like this and this one too seem to suggest that Gagauzia had more enclaves.

From what I can deduce, Gagauzia began only as a unification of the Gagauz people in southern Moldova. During the Parade of Sovereignties and the continuation of the USSR, Gagauzia was supportive of the New Union Treaty, and supported the same ideals as Pridnestrovie. Though Gagauzia was not involved in the war in Pridnestrovie, Gagauzia would be in border change as well. The Gagauz decide to cooperate with the Moldovan government, which lead to the modern day border. But what if the NUT was signed, and Gagauzia continued to support the new USSR. It could be possible that the Gagauz would see Moldova's attempt to retake Pridnestrovie as a threat to their existence as well, leading to Gagauzia going into war and having Soviet backing. What would this mean for the border?

I do not support the idea of Gagauzia having small enclaves. Gagauzia for TTL would look much different from OTL. During the war, the Soviets would have the upper hand against the Moldovans. But I dough the USSR would want to go as far as to reclaim all of Moldova, but would rather secure Pridnestrovie and Gagauzia. Pridnestrovie's border is easy to make, since the makes up (the majority of) the border. There are some regions over the river which Pridnestrovie claims, and would be recognized as the republics border by the USSR. Gagauzia's border would be based on maps like this one here, which make Gagauzia out as one, solid area. Based on the map, it would appear that all of the "northern enclave" would be included, with the remaining enclaves remaining under Moldovan control. It also appears that Gagauzia would gain portions of the (modern day) of Moldova. The communes included would most likely be:
