  1. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    I have an idea, actually. Instead of using the OTL flag of the Dominican Republic (minus the coat of arms in the middle and a swapped palette), how about the flag instead sports a the cross fleury ("cruz flordelisada") of the Dominican Order in yellow, on a red background. Something like this...

  2. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    ¿Asturias, región foral querida? Ok, so what about having merged León with Asturias? Also, I can't see Andorra within Cataluña. Also, I can't see Pensácola... just kidding. I'll shut up now. :-D

  3. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    I know. You and your realpolitik considerations. :-( Then again, it's fun to play the war hawk every now and then. :-D

  4. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    War. Oh, boy. Time to wrestle back Florida from the Americans! Pensácola included! Although... while we're at this... what shall be both UK's and France's reaction to the Spain(s)/USA war? I bet both will be heavily tempted to aid USA in secret, just to make things difficult for Spain.

  5. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    Dude, I'm fully bilingual (Spanish/English) and I also have serious trouble understanding what you write.

  6. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    Great update! A question, though... So... ITTL the *CP is (essentially) Germany, Austria-Hungary, the Ottoman Empire and Spain. How politically tenable would be in Spain to be allied to an infidel country? Let's remember than even IOTL, today, not few Spaniards haven't forgiven France for...

  7. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    Late night musings. I can't stand this any longer. I know I'm asking milarqui to spill the beans on something that's still several decades away, but I want to know NOW: Will this TL's version of Verano Azul make better use of Quique?

  8. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    More questions... - Where is Isaac Peral now? I would have expected Spanish submarines to be mentioned as a part of the naval blockade. - About the hymn: the one thing that I like from the Carlista version of the Spanish hymn is the rather potent line "Viva España, que es madre de Naciones". I...

  9. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    First, great update, Milarqui! Portuguese integration into United Spain(s) could be appeased by giving them some quotas of power. Hell, if I were the King, I'd make sure to spend time in the Lisbon Castle. Which makes me think of the other side... Catalonia and Valencia could resent...

    Hey, nice OTL. But... ... what about Switzerland? Haven't seen it mentioned much.

  11. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    Looking again at the map, something strikes me: a sea trade route between Ajaccio and Barcelona. Or, perhaps, Mataró? Will both cities fight over it? People from Tortosa will certainly watch this with interest. :-D

  12. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    I wonder if at some point in the future, the Habagatan Foral Region will have to be divided in two, given both its larger population in relation to the rest of the Philippines and cultural differences between Mindanao and Sulu.

  13. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    Given the local geography (both France and Italy want to absorb it) and the unlikelihood of British help, I'd expect Corsica to turn its eye to Spain. Commerce should certainly head that way; that, plus a couple decades passing after the Hohenzollern's War should help warm up Spanish-Corsican...

  14. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    Yes, it is indeed.

  15. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    I can't say anything yet, but... ... I hope I pull *something* through. You'll see (I hope!).

  16. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    A corrected version of the coat (in heraldry "silver" is white or silver, not that garish gray I left in, thinking it was brighter than it really is).

  17. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    And then, the full coat of arms (please pretend the black fillers aren't there): Credit: I used three images from wikipedia to do this mashup.

  18. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    I'm... not too crazy about that design. Corsica had its own flag and coat of arms, and copying/adapting the Sardinian one makes little sense (IMHO). Also, in heraldry the heads (and animals, etc.) are supposed to look to the right (to the viewer's left). To do it the other way around implies...

  19. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    But... have the Aranese ever wanted independence or even autonomy? ISTR they actually voted (back in the Middle Ages) to join Catalunya, so there shouldn't be any roots for independence movements. IMHO. However, REUS' independence movement... :D What is going to be interesting is the change of...

  20. The Legacy of the Glorious (Milarqui's Cut)

    I just thought of something. Besides Barcelona and Perpiñà, what other strongholds do the republicans have? Unitarian or federalist?
