This is, in every way, the best thing I have ever seen on this site.
I don't usually like fantasy maps, but how in the bejebus did you make it look that good???planet Terrneva, 2870 years after the colonial transport MIMAS crashed down on the planet (after being pulled into an unknown region of space by a unknown hyperspace effect).
The freight of the MIMAS consisted of: 300.000 colonists including material and animals bound for planet Roma Nova (Roman Revivalists/low level tech), 40.000 colonists bound for planet Triibaaldii (Inventive Creativists) and 15.000 frozen specimen of recreated sauroids including 40 persons of scientific staff bound four planet Crichton's Vision.
After loosing modern technology (which the Roman Revivalists didn't have too much anyway) civilization rose again and the Celesians (descendants of a group of the Roman Revivalists) built the largest empire on the planet. The actual level of technology is comparable to mid 16th century Terran Standard Calendar. Language is a bastardized form of Latin.
The pictures of the ships and dinosaurs I took from Wikipedia, everything else is my creation. Mountains and trees are brushes I found in the resources thread on www.cartographersguild.com - for its September Challenge I made the map.

Plz tell me you have a tutorial for making a map like that. Thats just epic.-AWESOME MAP-
I can not begin to adequately express the pure awesomeness of that map.
Oh, also, was it intentional or not that the world looks sort of like Greece?

planet Terrneva,
I cringed too...
Greece takes Istanbul? Really? Really?
CUT CARTOGRAPHIC BRILLIANCE
Impressive. Both maps. Especially the sci-fi one. Just...mapgasm.
Anywho. My unimpressive contribution.
Europe and the Near East, circa 2035. After the end of the war between NATO and the Middle Eastern pact, Jordan consumed all of Arabia and Greece was expanded at Turkey's expense. Iran had many lands returned to her. Turkey was booted out of the European Community, though her membership with NATO was maintained out of necessity.
This is stupid.
