First, the story so far, for which the map has minor spoilers.
Then:
I can link to Google My Maps, apparently.
Most of the ideas people have brought up have been incorporated in one way or another (often combined - hence the Polish-Lithuanian Papal State, under its Pope-President-Grand Duke.) Juliette, I've pretty much adopted yours wholesale, down to the Kootenai Nation (population: 165). I had to laugh at 'I'm not entirely sure what your future chronology looks like', though - yeah, I don't even know when this is set, let alone how we ended up with a world this cracked. It's NaNo - who cares?
Specific things people have mentioned that I'm considering but haven't yet put in:
-Newer York. I'm not sure what else is going to crop up on the east coast, so I'm keeping it unmarked for now.
-Neotsarist Russia. I've left a space for it, but don't know if it's the only state up there.
-Australia. The idea of a bunch of Australias all insisting they're the real one is hilarious; I just haven't decided whether they're dotted around the world, or different fragments of Australia itself.
-Japan. Given that I've reduced the British Empire to Gibraltar and the Pitcairns (sun status: still not technically set!), I'd quite like to give the other island nation the opposite treatment. I remember Japan occupying swathes of China at some point, but I've drawn a blank on precisely which bits.
If you've got expanded suggestions from the above, or entirely new ideas, go nuts! There's a lot of world left to fill.
Places namedropped in the narrative so far:
-Celtic League
-New Etruria
-Imperial Liechtenstein
-Greater Sealand
-Euskadi-Catalunya
-Deseret
-Tex-Mex Republic
-United Kingdom of Israel and Jordan
-Persian Caliphate
-Golden Mongolia
-Cascadia
-New Netherlands
-Holy Prussian Confederation
Which is a pretty decent chunk, actually.
No idea where we're going next, of course. NaNo!
