The most hilarious thing about the Balkanized New York, speaking as someone from upstate New York, is that Watertown gets its own country named after it for some reason, but Syracuse and Rochester both get absorbed into other nations (Onondaga for Syracuse, and the Finger Lakes Region for Rochester).

[@Tounushi]

On Russia, its structure is essentially counties plus nominally sovereign republics and other autonomies sprinkled along the empire. So all of it is Russia, without there being a Russia Proper. In practice it's the hegemon's territory in counties plus the autonomies, which have their executive seats filled by Moscow's top picks. IF Russia were to become a more decentralized federation, it'd at best look something like in the map 9:40. The Republic of Muscovy in the federation would be de-facto Russia Proper, but there'd be more layers between Moscow and the counties. However, since power in the Muscovite empire has projected from either Moscow or St. Petersburg for the past half-millennium, I find it hard to believe that if that power ever diminished, it'd ever hold the eastern reaches of the empire at all. Last time it happened China was in its Warlord Period, so they couldn't do much anything to exploit the situation, now could they?
