WIP Map Thread

[Isaac Beach]

This is basically done, I'm just doing the writeup which will take some time, and deciding if I wanna put 'greenery' on the map, I'unno. But I don't think the finished product is too revealing about the lore behind the planet itself, so I'm happy to share it for the time being. More to come!

Is... is that an Italian Texas?

 

[TapReflex]

If there's one thing I'm good at, it's creating names for any administrative region imaginable

I volunteer!

So we have Japan in the West, Italy in the Southwest, France in the Appalachians, GB with the South and Northeast/Midwest, Belgium with a small chunk of new England, and an International NYC. I've been having trouble francifying the Appalachian city names, beyond 'burg->bourg', especially cause a lot of the names already end in '-ville'

Back to mapping China.

A WIP (obviously) I think the premise is Europe is swept by alt-communism and North America is the refuge of royalist/anti-communist governments. The Brazil color in North America is the descendant of a stratocratic republic in Portugal while *Mexico is a set of landowners gone Rhodesian as Spain fell to communism and took Portugal. The same with English Central America, though I'm thinking the British communist state is even less centralized and with semi-independent Welsh and Scottish republics.

I've done more work on that map. Now including an Armenian Empire and many brother republics for Britain.

Wait. You mean that this Super-Turkey is actually...?

Yeah, that's Armenia. I'm half tempted to have it ruled by the House of Kardashian...

 

[Tomislav Addai]

Dunes of the Desert, 800AD (except Sahel and India)

How I never notice you are same person? :d
Thanks

 

[xmoose]

By the way could these borders in Zaire and Tanganyika (mhm, and Angola maybe :d) work? Please ignore the rest, isn´t finished.

 

[Baconheimer]

Yet more work. Any thoughts?

This is my feedback and style, I'm not saying this is the one correct way to do it.

1) For the Alaska+BC territory, the border is weird. I recommend you use a combination of longitude and latitude lines plus rivers, since that's what the (European) powers demarcating the American territories used.

2) Europe looks good, but I'm a bit unsure about the purple blob where Venice is. If you have a HRE, the more logical (and aesthetic) border would be more south-looking. Venice was decidedly a maritime power, it would not have means or motive to extend its reach that far inland, especially in such rough terrain.

3) I'm assuming the gray part of Africa is still WIP.

4) You should separate the Ethiopian and Somali parts of Africa on ethno-religious lines.

5) The Sahelian African state looks a bit blobby and weird. If you tell me what your ideas were for it, I can help you further.

6) I like Asia. Good attention to detail on Turkestan.
