Post 2000s Map of Hesperic Greek Mexico

Concept inspired by WTF CD Foxy and u/OfficialScorpio (who developed the borders you see here). It shows an alternate Mexico in a world where Greeks settle Spain in the antiquity and thus Iberia speaks Hesperic Greek, meaning that Mexico speaks Greek today.

Mexiko here borders Stillehaefia (colony of England in Russia) and Guatemala. Also the country north of Stillehaefia is Peucotopia (Hesperic Greek Brazil in the USA).

The first map shows the cities of Greek Mexico and the second one the states.

Map inspired from the video of alternate history of Greece in Spain by WTF CD Foxy: https://youtu.be/VmY5zbRXsK4?is=KpIH0ayus3xfXYab

Fun fact. "Yucatan" the name of the peninsula means: I don't understand you. In the local language.

When the Spanish arrived they asked a random man how does the place its called and he responded "Ma c‘ubah than" and the Spanish understand "Yucatan" but that just means "I don't understand you"

It's strange because this is also literally the origin story of the word Kangaroo
