Honestly, we should just do it like the original model of zones worked: 1 time zone per zone of latitude, i.e. each time zone aligned with each 15-degree-apart meridian.

None of this "Oh we used to be part of [Input Empire Name Here] so let's keep our time zones the same as them." Damned colonial bullshit...

Edit: Longitude, not latitude. Lol. Was thinking it but wrote the opposite. Haha.

Longitude, not Latitude.

Hey, you don't even need to be a part of [Input Empire Here], you can just be a Hitler megafan and change your time zone to impress Senpai (ahem, Spain)

True.
