Diplomacy: 1900

Description
A variant of Diplomacy using an updated and more historically accurate board. The major changes are as follows:
-Starting unit placement has been altered to be more historically accurate.
-6 New Supply Centers have been added to the board. It is now 19 supply centers to win.
-Units can now pass through the Suez canal in Egypt, and sail around the horn of Africa to get to the Mid Atlantic, allowing for large east to west flanks and vice versa!
-Most countries have had geographic balancing changes. Turkey now has more naval options, Italy has been given more territory to compete for in the Med, etc.
-All countries have been given historically accurate rules, to help further distinguish each country and their play style.

This has been an on and off passion project of mine, as I find that the standard Diplomacy board is not the best it could be, and that there are blatant disparities between country's power levels and opportunities, as well as some countries not needing to talk to each other. This aims to provide an experiance that not only more closley emulates the first World War, but also provides a breath of fresh air from the standard Diplomacy "meta". There is now more to consider, while maintaining the same core rule set.

Please feel free to message me for any rule clarifications or other questions.

Looking to play this with my group who is new to diplomacy, could you use a map that uses full names like this one?

Otherwise I noticed there's a depature from Powel's ruleset with no german fleet in kiel.
