The Promised Lands

A random map I decided to make. Thanks to America and Russia, the Islamic continent now looks like this.

Trump becomes President of the United States. He's heavily influenced by his advisors, and the Middle East becomes a priority for the country. The new President also aims for better relations with the Russians, which he achieves with a plan to divide parts of the Middle East. The deal is, if Russia will aid in the expansion of Israel, then Russia will gain 2 states over which they have a lot of control, and NATO will be disbanded. These two states are Kurdistan and Armenia.

Greece was kicked out of the European Union, which led to serious economic consequences. Russia offered Greece the chance to join the Eurasian Union, which was hastily accepted. Along with Serbia, the newest members of the Eurasian Union flourished under Russia's light.

Turkey was abandoned in the 2020s after additional conflicts with Russia. They were left to Russia, as Russia's allies prepared for war. Greek forces stormed Istanbul in 2024, as additional attacks by the Kurdish and Armenians made the situation evident. Turkey was forced to surrender in 2026, after the capture of Ankara. Turkey was kept alive, but under Russian influence, as Greece, Armenia, and the newly formed Kurdistan gained their desired lands. (Although Armenia and Kurdistan had some land disputes, they were quickly worked out by Russia.)

American forces entered Israel in 2017, as ISIS continued to gain land. Palestine was swiftly taken over, with American and Russia authorities stating that they were a secret branch of the well-known Taliban, and had to be eradicated immediately. Soon after these events, Jordan fell into anarchy, as the Islamic State moved in and captured land. It is at this point when the leader of the Islamic State was replaced by someone else - this is when the tides change.

Saudi Arabia and Iran's relations didn't change over 2017, as Iran delved into a massive civil war and Saudi Arabia invaded Iran. In response to this, the USA invaded Saudi Arabia, occupying and annexing northern Saudi land.

A secret treaty between the Kurds and the Islamic State resulted in the partitioning of Syria and Iraq. The United States pushed the IS back through Syria, and eventually defeated them in Iraq in 2019. Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Kuwait, and Jordan were transformed into American Puppets. Coupled with Israel, the unification gave birth to a new Greater Israeli Kingdom.

Following this, Egypt was invaded successfully, and Israel participated in the partition of Turkey.

NOTE: I made the map before I made the scenario, so no hate please.
