Was just asking, since I like Pacific-centered maps, and there was one for 1991 in the AH.com wiki.

Being honest, the 1991 one is probably completely wrong in terms of the actual projection.

Such sadness.
I suppose I should consider commissioning or something in the future.
That is really beautiful. You have plans to use the same key on earlier maps? Hint/beg?
I didn't plan on it, but now that you mention it, I might try 1914.
You are our saviour and the saviour of map games, @hadaril ! @Fenrir_Angerboda , @Ellie , @Upvoteanthology , @Baconheimer , @AltFuture , @CannedTech , @Falkanner , @AK47Productions , @Lalli , @Whiteshore , you shall immediately learn of this great deed! @hadaril , I revere you for this!
Is there any chance of an updated 1838 map (or generally, an updated OTL worlda map between 1815 and 1861?)
Or of a 1783 map?

Huh? I mean, hadaril did a really good job, but I haven't been in a map game in like two years.
I'm not sure if this is the one you're looking for (I don't know what you mean by "updated"), but here's 1838:
More can be found here.
I finished editing the Wiki's base map section; it was annoying me to no end how much of a mess that place was . I seperated the older map series from the newer ones, as well as reorganize + expand the list of current base maps to better clarify what the forums are actively using in the present day. Thank you all for the kind words; I feel really humbled. What I did was nothing compared to the authors who actually created these from scratch - I just needed to fix coasts, a few borders here and there, and some colors.
@theminer2020, That 1838 map is one of the realllly old worlda's - so much so that it would be a lot of work to fix that one up; what's annoying about those is the use of the "polka dot" colors for colonized territory; additionally, it looks like that one is built on one of one of the oldest worlda editions, meaning that coastlines are wildly inconsistent with more recent maps.

@hadaril : And a new wiki update! Finally!
How could you, or we as a collective, do something about the lack of updated Worlda maps from 1815 to 1861 - and what about 1783?

The map itself is terrible (blobby, badly drawn, the states are little more than vague shapes, no Great Lakes ect, ect), but the unusual driving laws presented on it are pure gold;

To be fair, most of them make sense.The map itself is terrible (blobby, badly drawn, the states are little more than vague shapes, no Great Lakes ect, ect), but the unusual driving laws presented on it are pure gold;

Louisiana's law sounds to me like it could come from a Shari'a-enforcing kingdom/emirate of the Middle East more than Louisiana...
