Reference excerpt

The Outline of the Post-War New World Map was a map completed before the attack on Pearl Harbor and self-published on February 25, 1942 by Maurice Gomberg of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It shows a proposed political division of the world after World War II in the event of an Allied victory in which the United States of America, the United Kingdom, and the Soviet Union as well as the Republic of China would rule. The map includes a manifesto describing a "New World Moral Order", along with quotes from Roosevelt's Four Freedoms speech. Gomberg, a Russian Jewish emigre to the United States, created the map as a personal project, and little else is known of him. The map has been highlighted by New World Order conspiracy theorists who believe it represents some broader view of the US government, and has also been widely circulated online.

Description of proposed territories on map The map proposes a total of 14 independent sovereign states, 4 military powers and 10 demilitarized states, and 3 "quarantined" states (the fate of 2 are to be eventually integrated into sovereign states).

Military powers

United States The United States has 82 states, not including Security Outposts in the Pacific and the Atlantic, gaining all of Canada, Mexico, and Central America, among other places: States: Alabama - Alberta - Alaska - Arizona - Arkansas - The Bahamas - California (historical Alta (Upper) California) - Colorado - Columbia - Connecticut - Costa Rica - Cuba - Delaware - Florida - Georgia - Greenland - Guatemala (Guatemala and Belize) - Haiti (including all of Hispaniola) - Honduras - Idaho - Illinois - Indiana - Iowa - Jamaica - Kansas - Keewatin (pre-1999 Northwest Territories east of the 110° meridian) - Kentucky - Labrador (mainland Newfoundland and Labrador) - Leeward Islands - Louisiana - Lower California (consisting of the Baja California peninsula) - Maine - Mackenzie (pre-1999 Northwest Territories west of the 110° meridian) - Manitoba - Maryland - Martinique - Massachusetts - Mexico (the remainder of Mexico) - Michigan - Minnesota - Mississippi - Missouri - Montana - Nevada - New Brunswick - Newfoundland (Island Newfoundland and Labrador) - New Hampshire - New Jersey - New Mexico - New York - Nicaragua - North Carolina - North Dakota - Nova Scotia - Ohio - Oklahoma - Ontario - Oregon - Panama - Pennsylvania - Prince Edward Island - Puerto Rico - Quebec - Rhode Island - El Salvador - Saskatchewan - South Carolina - South Dakota - Tennessee - Texas - Trinidad - Utah - Vermont - Virginia - Virgin Islands - Washington - West Virginia - Windward Islands - Wisconsin - Wyoming - Yukon Protectorates: - Celebes - Hainan - Halmahera Islands - Iceland - Moluccas Islands - Commonwealth of the Philippines - Taiwan and Penghu Port "Peace-security bases": Dakar and Freetown on the Atlantic coast of Africa and the islands of the Pacific, excluding Solomon Islands.

British Commonwealth of Nations The British Commonwealth of Nations is headquartered in Britain. The Commonwealth includes the Faroe Islands and the former colonies of Madagascar (in early 1942 still a Vichy French colony), Ceylon, the Andaman Islands, Cyprus, Malta, most of Indonesia (in 1942 a Dutch colony occupied by Japan; other parts are given to the US) and the current Papua New Guinea, as well as the then British colonies that are now Singapore and Malaysian Borneo, South Georgia, the Bismarck Archipelago, the Solomon Islands, and the countries of Australia and New Zealand. It does not contain Northern Ireland, which is instead part of a united Ireland (Éire). Port "Peace-security bases":

Gibraltar on the southern coast of Spain, Alexandria, Algiers, Benghazi and Oran on the Mediterranean Sea coast of Africa, Djibouti City and Port Sudan on the Red Sea coast of Africa, Berbera, Mogadishu and Zanzibar on the Indian coast of Africa, and Cabinda City and Cape Town on the Atlantic coast of Africa

Soviet Union - Union of Soviet Socialist Republics The Soviet Union would expand to be far larger than its then-current size, expanding to 24 (later 25) Soviet Socialist Republics (while "downgrading" some SSR's to Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republics): Soviet Socialist Republics: Armenia - Azerbaijan - Bulgaria - Czech Republic - Estonia - Finland - Georgia - Hungary - Iran - Latvia - Lithuania - Manchuria (Heilongjiang and Hulunbuir) - Moldavia (all of Bessarabia) - Mongolia - Poland - Romania - Russia (which includes Karelia, Karakalpakstan, Kazakhstan, and Kirghizia/Kyrgyzstan) - Slovakia - Tajikistan - Turkmenistan - Ukraine - Uzbekistan - White Russia (Byelorussia) - Yugoslavia

At an unspecified later time, Germany (which includes Austria but not East Prussia). Germany is termed quarantined Germany until full integration

South America - United States of South America Everything below the Darién Gap, and offshore islands including the Falkland Islands: - Argentina - Bolivia - Brazil - Chile - Colombia - Ecuador - Guiana - Paraguay - Peru - Uruguay - Venezuela

Demilitarized states

India - Federated Republics of India The Federated Republics of India has a common capital Delhi. There are 22 states or provinces in the country. Goa is now the part of Federated Republics of India. States are: Afghanistan - Baluchistan - Bhutan - Burma - Punjab - Bengal - Bihar - Andaman and Nicobar Islands - Ajmer-Merwara - Assam - Bombay - Central Provinces and Berar - Coorg - Delhi - Madras - North-West Frontier - Orissa - Panth Piploda - Goa - Sind - United Provinces - Nepal

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Outline of the Post-War New World Map

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Outline of the Post-War New World Map claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Outline of the Post-War New World Map before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Outline of the Post-War New World Map ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Outline of the Post-War New World Map

In research: Outline of the Post-War New World Map appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Outline of the Post-War New World Map in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Outline of the Post-War New World Map is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1942 works, 20th-century maps and globes, Anti-German sentiment, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Outline of the Post-War New World Map outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
