Another Big Ethiopia (but federated)
The map is set in the modern day. It follows a timeline where Ethiopia managed to modernize much earlier, conquering nearby nations. It managed to not only avoid European colonization during the Scramble for Africa, but rival European empires in its size and power.
A nation as large as this one, however, is bound to run into some internal strife. Ethiopia was no exception. After years of unrest and a bloody civil war, the country underwent a heavy reform in which it gradually federalized and gave greater equality between its various states and ethnic groups.
Simplistic and probably not very realistic. Maybe some mistakes. I know. This is my first map so I’m hoping to get some feedback.
