Nobody’s asking anyone to draw a map from memory. They’re asking a news channel to put in the 5 seconds of googling it takes to procure an accurate map.
==============================
Russia
==============================
Iran | China | Japan
==============================
Saudi Arabia | India | Vietnam
==============================
Maybe Tibet. Maybe Pakistan. Not sure about Afghanistan.
Australia would include Papua, Vietnam would get the rest of Southeast Asia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Myanmar, you name it. It was a big war, must’ve been a big place. Who even knows what countries are there? It’s like the Balkans of Asia. India would look mostly the same, a bit bigger.
If Pakistan is included it probably would include Afghanistan as Afganistan is definitely in the Middle East and not in Asia, but Pakistan (If they remember it, with the weird border ritual video that became so popular) is so closely associated with India that there’s a chance it’s included. Maybe India gets Pakistan while Pakistan ends up around Iran.
China gets a lot of Kazakhstan, all of Mongolia and some of Russia. It’s possible some random chunk of western China gets the name Tibet. Russia stays mostly the same, whether they or China get the Korean peninsula is a toss-up. There’s a decent chance the Russian border just gets moved way north.
Depending on who you ask, Korea might also be included as it’s own thing. But it might end up in a weird place like Vladivostok, the Kola peninsula, or some place in China.
There’s a decent chance they know most of the main islands of Japan and it ends up looking a little cursed but mostly in the right place. I’m thinking it would either stop short of Hokkaido or seize Sakhalin.
That’s cool and all, but if we’re directly correlating this, then I think it would be more like you drawing out the provinces in China or India.
China I could maybe get Manchuria, Inner Mongolia, Tibet kinda right, I’d try to get Guangdong, Szechuan and Xi’an, the rest I’m screwed (Heibei maybe? Guangzhou? Idfk). Perhaps I’d be better to stick to the 3 kingdoms.
India I’m much more screwed. Kashmir, North India, South India, Delhi, something called Gujurat maybe, Bengal, Pashtun?, Bombay, Goa? Throw the Ganges somewhere in there in the North and East…a desert in the west, North and South Mountains that are not called mountains?
Now that I’m thinking about it, I’d probably draw it out as Kashmir, that big strip that hugs the Ganges and Himalayas where Delhi is, and Texas.
If you think I’m going to take Israel’s side just to give a contradiction you’re wrong
I support Scotland but I realize the biggest push in the movement is Russia trying to fracture their enemies (same with anti-EU sentiment that Scotland is not part of)
Tibet doesn’t give China that support. Of note as well is the prevalence of Scottish flags to Tibet flags. A unicode example 🏴vs no result. A stock photo in front of parliament and you show me a Tibetan flag at The Great Hall
I think Catalonia has a right to independence but like Scotland to England. An independent Catalonia should ally with Spain
You can’t make the argument that China needs Tibet to stand up to America or India. You could make the argument that China needs an independent/neutral Tibet to act as a buffer to India. Much like they need DPRK to act as a buffer between ROK
Most of the Americas are independent from Europe so I am not sure on your argument there but native nations should be elevated from their current status
If breaking up Myanmar stops the junta’s genocide then it should happen
Quebec’s separatist movement doesn’t have the backing of the people (their votes keep failing) but if we assume they are fixed then yeah Quebec should be independent however even that movement still wants to keep it’s current ties to Canada
All those Russian provinces that voted for independence should be allowed to leave
There are way too many independence movements to list them all but if you have any more you want specifics on feel free to ask
China and India are about right, Japan’s south of Taiwan, Vietnam is labeled South Korea, all the other islands are “you get the idea” squiggles. The rest is a wash. Anyone who remembers the Philippines is in the Armed Forces. Anyone who can place Thailand encrypts their hard drive.
Eh, close enough.
I was gonna say.
Want to see the map of Asia that most US-Americans could draw.

I’d add in Mongolia and call Myanmar Burma at first but otherwise, yeah.
Basically China, India and Japan with a Vietnam somewhere but they don’t want to talk about it.
Hey now, North Korea is in there somewhere by Vietnam, too.
No american knows India is in Asia. They think Asia is just south east Asia. I’ll allow that for the Brits tho
Why would you allow that for brits? India was a British colony you know?
?? By allow it I mean I’d understand if the shown map was what a Brit thought Asia was
China, India, Vietnam, Russia, Australia.
Probably Japan.
Maybe Tibet. Maybe Pakistan. Not sure about Afghanistan.

Central Asia doesn’t exist.

Read a book.
I would hope you’d find Russia on a map too
Hmmm, never heard of it
You mean eastern Ukraine?
So … China, then

Tibet should be independent after Republic of China liberates the mainland of terrorists
The Republic of China also claims Tibet.
That’s irrelevant to “Tibet should be independent”
I do want to hear the difference between #FreeTibet and #FreeCaledonia and all other separatist movements. Hell even, #FreetheAmericaFromTheEuropeans

All of central Asia is “Afghanistan?”.
