The subject of this month’s main challenge is too tempting for me, as for some time I had in mind mapping something showing a before/after situation with an evolving map in the middle. Perfect for this month’s theme if only there’s one problem: what I had in mind is an alternate history map and so now I have to play completely out of my comfort zone in the main challenge, with only half of the time left: a poor, really poor showing is coming, but you will forgive me, I hope.
Also you fellow australian members here, have to forgive the most implausible partition and subdivision of your country, as I’m going to show the bloody war between the Workers’ Republics of Australia and the Royal Dominion of Australia sometime after the 1950s.
A more detailed backstory will (..mmm.. might) come; for now my first wip map:

I'm always a sucker for good althist; hope you finish it!
@TheHoarseWhisperer: I fear that you will be even far more outraged by the final result of this work.
@Diamond: I know, and your a.h. maps have a special place on my hard drive.
Anyway, my alternate Australia is slowly taking shape; next to come, more details and the other maps, with the evolving and changing situations.

Looks like a promising map to me.
Oh, I do not envy the militias fighting on that border. One of the reasons there's never been a civil conflict in Australia is probably because no-one can be bothered leaving the beach and the nice cool sea.
Si sta cercando bene, fabio (e dispiace per gli errori nel mio italiano)![]()

Thanks guys!
A major update on the map; I also want (and hope) to add some more stuff, time permitting.

A fourth and maybe final iteration of my map.
I didn't say (as it should go without saying) that you are free to suggest, criticize, be merciless.
Well, now the time left is scarce, still I will try to implement suggestions if I can.

Looks good. Typo under the WRA flag!
Pretty set of maps! I dig the nuclear mushrooms.
