Perhaps I can find some friend with a quality photo camera
I have a couple of ideas for some mofts:
Double-Sided Coin: Show a war/cold war map between 2 nations with almost identical ideologies (like between soviet and american stratocracies)
Death of a Bachelor: A map of a nation that has finally (re) united with another nation
It's Always Sunny: A map where you have to show a nation, or a part of the nation, on the Equator, or close by
In the Shadows: A map of a nation that has always been less important than it's neighbor, until that neighbor collapses. you have to show the aftermath of them becoming a major nation.

There be dragons
Show a country along side what their perception of the known world is, preferably done in a style reminiscent of old maps of the world.

About 12 hours left for anyone who wants to enter MotF 208. In the meantime, I have posted the entry for Map of the Month 7: The Way I See It! This extended round will run through the month of December and into the new year.
Does the second map need to be of the entire world? Could we have a map of a particular neighbouring region or even continents?

First of all, congratulations to @Višeslav for winning MotF 207 his map of Ukraine and its allies!
The voting thread for MotF 208 is now posted, so be sure to check that out and vote for your favorite!
This would be fine, as long as the inhabitants of that province/state/prefecture/etc. have a significantly unique worldview that is reflected in the second map.
The second map does not need to be a complete world map, but it needs to show some portion of the world beyond the country portrayed in the first map. A regional or continent would be fine.

The Holy Elsewhere Make a map showing a pivotal holy place that is away from the main areas of the religion it is important to.
World Police Make a map showing a regional conflict or its aftermath where a superpower or world-spanning empire has militarily intervened.
No, WE'RE The Real Government Make a map showing a country during a civil war that's gone on long enough that most people outside the country just think of it as having split into multiple countries. Examples from OTL would be Korea with the ROK vs. the DPRK, or China with the PRC vs. the ROC.

I second this. I like the idea of In the Shadows...though perhaps it should be named "Out of the Shadows".
I Am Error: Make a map depicting a nation or border anomaly created by mistake (e.g. Minnesota's Northwest Angle).
It's Dangerous to Go Alone: Make a map depicting a nation or region who has managed to prosper/start winning thanks to foreign aid.
It's a Secret to Everyone: Make a map depicting the aftermath of the revealing to the public of a territorial change or treaty that has been kept secret for years.

I am! It should be ready halfway through the week hopefully

We only have one entry in so far, and I know there's at least one that is stalled by some computer trouble, so I will go ahead and extend MotM 7 out until January 13. In the meantime, let me know what topics interest you for MotF 209!
