@Carking the 6th challenged me to draw a map of Africa with borders and stuff. He failed to specify whether I was allowed to use a proper map as a reference, so I first did one from memory and then a better one with the help of Google Maps.
Apologies for the photo quality; I have an actually good camera but was too lazy to dig it out, so you can nobly try to read my now-blurry handwriting.
Here is the good one I did with references:
With zoomed-in images because this is a pain to read:
It's still not great because it didn't occur to me to sketch in some of the borders lightly before filling in all of them, resulting in some countries like Ethiopia being wildly off scale.
And here is the one I did from memory:
I know it's bad. While I was drawing it I could tell some things were off but didn't know how to fix them without making it worse.
I don't think I'll be ready for the 1700s follow-up challenge from memory, as I know next to nothing about African history.

Oh and for the source of the beef, let's say it has to do with your incurable love of treachery for all situations, as well as other things.
I don't know why that would cause anyone to have a grudge against me.
'Other things' now include Algeria, yes?

Scratch africa 1700’s, we’ll need the Middle East. Actually I’ll try my hand at the Middle East! I’ll throw in the whole Arab world so I can get Algeria as well! I’ll avenge you @TheZhukov! Glory to the Union!You and Aragosta have some sort of beef and I still don’t know where is originated…
I have no idea where it came from either.
Also you using an !? I can’t believe it is possible that you can show that amount of emotion!
Where?

Ohhhh... I thought you meant a '!?' rather than a '!', but the question mark was part of your original sentence/question (which is why marking such things out with other punctuation is a thing people should do). I have never unironically written a '!?' in my life.
You just did.
Unironically, I said. By which I mean 'I actually want to emote to this degree'. The one I wrote there was not exactly ironic, true, but it was for demonstrative purposes so it doesn't count.
Alright then. I’ll send Zhukov knocking on your door to make it happen unironically.
Hah. None of you even know which city I live alone, let alone which house. Good luck.
Zhukov can cross Manchuko in a day, which is 3x larger than the UK. This is while restraining himself from his full power. He’d find you in a month tops.
I'll deny everything, just like every other person who'll find him on their doorstep.
Well… I guess if you take them all out then there will be no chance…
Even so, the spirit of the revolution shall reveal your ignominious hideout to the glorious defenders of the workers!
Glory to the Union! You can never hide from justice!

Plus the DRC is barely even a country with normal borders in its current state…

Aren't they having civil wars or something down there? Kinda like Nigeria...
And I've heard they are using child soldiers. How inhumane!
Very long and bloody civil war that has costed millions of lives. Not fun.
