I haven't really had a chance to look at the book until now and even then I've only skimmed some parts of it. One bit that did surprise me though, aside from the slightly ham-handed 'Oh that's the nuclear exchange no-one ever talks about', was that India managed to keep itself together. Apart from Khalistan in the north and Assam being absorbed into the Bangla Commonwealth - I always thought the tribes out there were closer to the Sino-Tibetian family than the Bangladeshi one.

I figured with all the chaos and death that went down out there there'd be a bit more Balkanisation, especially considering that there a number of active independence movements calling for greater autonomy or straight out seperation either active or currently with a cease-fire that there are nowadays. So I started this thread mainly to ask the author/s, I forget who wrote it, why they decided to go this route. So, gays and gals, why did you? :)
