For Brazil, I believe that Uruguay should come back (more 2 Football titles, Mujica, marijuana will help our country) and French Guyana too. All lands east of Paraná river should be Brazilian too (East Paraguay, Missiones, Corrientes and Entre Rios). Venezuela Amazonas if an anti-Chavez government gets in. And Ascension and Saint Helena too.

All irredentism is by definition Horrible Irredentism.

But German and Russian claims are particularly The Worst (normal Pole).

I think Germany and Poland are well settled now.  But the story of the way innocent Germans were treated in the forced migrations needs to be told.  It was a trauma they haven't been allowed to discuss much.  Same goes for the Poles.  The Poles really got it.

second page and no-one has mentioned Ireland?

I'm gonna give Jamtland to Norway, Aaland to Sweden, most of Karelia to Finland and, yeah, Kaliningrad/Konigsburg should've gone to either Lithuania or Poland

My Dad on the other hand is one of those strange people who thinks that Monmouthshire is part of England, and that Wales (until 1999 or the 1950s) didn't technically exist

I'd like Flanders to join The Netherlands, 1830 was a mistake. Wallonia can have Brussels Cheesy

Nordic borders should be returned to this and the white areas on the peninsula given to the Saami.

I'm gonna give Jamtland to Norway,

Herjedalen is even more logical and they still speak Norwegian. I would give them Bohuslen as well except the part that is de facto part of greater Gothenburg.

I do have a fondness for the borders of Gustav-Adolf's Empire, though.

Well, for me it is not weird but my position in Chinese politics is a return China's boundaries to the official ROC position



Which should be implemented once the illegal PRC regime is overthrown and the rightful Chinese government of ROC is restored on Mainland China.  I actually back PRC on an issue by issue basis but does not take away from my view that they are an illegal government.

First I do not recognize the name Ulan Bator.  It should be called Kulun (庫倫).  It was only changed to Ulan Bator under the puppet Soviet regime.   Of course it was our mistake.  The ROC actually recaptured Outer Mongolia in 1919 but made the mistake of making the Outer Mongolian nobility pay outstanding debts to ROC banks based in Shanxi Province that they incurred before 1911.  That turned the Outer Mongolian nobility to instead work with the White Russians and they were followed by the Red Russians.

Yes, I would make this point although I will be very careful to be on the lookout for groups like Tsagaan Khass.

Anyway even this map is phase one for me.  The long term goal is Chinese boundaries of 1820.  

This is actually my computer screensaver.  

 
Of course these claims are a lot more dangerous as they include Russian occupied Outer Manchuria (外滿洲).  When I mention us Chinese taking back these territories to my Russian friends at work they mostly mutter something along the lines "you can have it but most likely it will be radioactive when you managed to take it."   To be fair even the current ROC claim includes the Russian occupied Tanu Tuva which I insist is called Tannu Uriankhai (唐努烏梁海).

Canada should invade some Carribbean island so vacationers don't have to go through customs when the escape to warmer climates.
Annexing Turks and Caicos has been proposed before. Apparently it's supported by the locals, too.

Not so long ago, wasn't it the car that T&C was to become a (semi)-autonomous part of Canada?

Turn Brussels into a city-state, divide the other bits between NED/FRA, sorted.

That would be well weird/amusing. Lots of non-Swedish speaking friends would suddenly live in Sweden and I would be from Denmark. The True Finns would be active in Sweden whilst the Sweden Democrats would be strongest in Denmark..

I think the US-Mexico border would look prettier without the Gadsten Purchase.

Kalingrad to Lithuania
Dubrovnik to Bosnia
Trieste to Slovenia
Geneva to France

Some country's borders are just ridiculous, like Armenia and Azerbaijan.

Also get rid of worthless crap like Transnistria.

Why Nepal? Its culture and history have been clealry separate from those of Indian States AFAIK.
