So having received what turned out to be the first map of this entire thing, I immediately assumed 'A-H goes Syria in 2020' and bounced through a few ideas- wikipedia style civil war maps for some areas, some sort of emergent state based around an Austrian-ruled Serbia/Montenegro.
Then I realised that a divided Italy would probably mean that Venice would be using the Venetian Language rather than the Italian language, and sort of spring-boarded off from that into an Italian language map with the assumption that there's no such thing as standard Italian.
So having drawn the whole of Italy out, plotted official languages, then spent over a week just doing Tuscany, I came to the conclusion I needed to just pull an extract out and send it on (I'll finish the rest later).
So I extracted this (and apparently substituted Parma for Mantua), and then sent it on to @Indicus.
