I think it's pretty clear that the USA is like all the citystates of Ancient Greece, and that Canada is like Macedonia. Canadians speak and write a slightly different dialect, just as Macedonians spoke and wrote similarily to the Ancient Greeks. To most Americans, Canada is a joke, nothing but wilderness and moose. What harm could they possibly do? The Greeks thought of the Macedonians as harmless barbarians. There are more parallels that I can't think of right now. Anyways, once Canada is united under a strong leader, the US, then the world, will be conquered by those crazy canucks.

That's the way I see it.

Other than that, the original post with the map and such made sense. I think Mongolia represents the Saka and the Sarmatians, just because Mongolia is almost completely rural and still has a bunch nomadic people living pretty much the same way they did thousands of years ago.
