The Q-BAM Improvement and Core Thread

Okay, there's British Island in 814.
- I'm not sure if Pecsaete and Lindsay were turned into ealdormancies, as were Hwicce and Magonsaete. If someone have a clue about it...

- The situation in Ireland is a bit too blurry, to me, to represent the kingdoms : some sub-kingdoms traditionally assimilated to given kingdoms seems to have been on their own, and without clear Ard Rì...
I'll check deeper later, but it would be first for checking where were the first Viking bases in the island, I think
Again, if someone have a clue...

(The borders aren't precise : I just based myself on either natural features or some relatively recent maps about such or such region, checking with Anglo-Saxon Encyclopedia. They are supposed to be roughly correct, but not in detail. Feel free to check.)

There was apparently an Ealdorman for Devon later in the century at least. Odda held it from 851 but there was Karl/Ceorle before him. It looks like Ceorle might have been the first, but it's not unreasonable to suppose that the title may have been created by 814.

Looking here, it appears Lindsey at least is unlikely to have been an Ealdormanship- it's all very, very patchy and full of guesswork of course but there doesn't seem to be any evidence for local rulers after the late 8th Century.
 
Elbe's region looks a bit off. The river (or its immediate region) doesn't really fit the maps I have : did it moved importantly historically?
I'm going to use, at least for this portion, cjblack's map : maybe it could be a good idea to check it over.

EDIT : Mmm...Cjblack's Elbe is a bit off as well...That's going to be fun.

I'd need the Franconian Saale to be added. Can someone do it, please? (Meanwhile, I'll do Spain)

so are those administrative borders color codes adopted by everyone or we can choose, since i have noticed theat they differ from map to map sometimes ?

there are officil ones but yeah most of the time everyone choices what he like or thinks which is the best.....:eek:
 
Is there a BAM of the world around 1740/1748/1750? I've found a 1789 but something closer to these earlier years would be very much appreciated :D
 
i don't realy know and even if there is one (most likely there are several different versions) i coul;n't tell you which would be most common or best to use i say just look how other people did and try to keep close to that but further use your own stuff... ;)

Non-exist yet! but most likely i will make one before newyear or something but for now you'll have to do without or ask somebody to make it or make it yourself!
