Map of the Fortnight: Main Discussion Thread
- Thread starter Upvoteanthology
- Start date
Going to try to finish a map tonight - I'll update in a few hours to see if I'm actually close to pull it off or not.
I'll hold the voting thread to Tuesday for you if you figure you will be ready by then.
Go ahead and post the thread whenever you are ready, I don't think I will finish on time.
My map displaying the secularization of an independent Valais will have to wait until another day to be posted.
I think the meaning of the prompt is, rather, to show a map detailing alternate historical pseudohistorical maps, if that makes sense.
I am. Not sure when I'll finally be done with it, but it's presentable as it is
Hi, long-term reader and lurker with a folder full of half-finished maps here 
I'm a little confused about this challenge: should we be depicting a world where a revisionist/ahistorical/pseudohistorical theory (like say, a conspiracy theory) has gained mass acceptance with the public and/or is being presented as true by the authorities? OR should we be depicting an ahistorical/pseudohistorical/revisionist theory as if it were actually true?
(I assumed it was the former, but now I'm not sure 😅)

I am also not sure. The submission was not very clearly written. Feel free to submit maps along either interpretation.Hi, long-term reader and lurker with a folder full of half-finished maps here

I will hold the voting thread to tomorrow if you have one in progress.
Four Corners: Make a map of four or more entities which share, or almost share, a common point. Examples: Utah/Colorado/Arizona/New Mexico, Namibia/Zambia/Botswana/Zimbabwe (they almost meet), the four suyus of the Incan Empire which all meet at Cuzco, that one proposal to slice Europe up like a pie, Egypt/Hala'ib/Bir Tawil/Sudan, South Pole, Mount Etna (10 communes meet there, one twice), the original 1947 UN partition plan for Palestine that had two points where Israel and Palestine crossed over.
Hello all! I'm going on a camping trip this weekend, so the new entry thread will be posted on Friday rather than Monday. However, I won't post the 257 voting thread until Wednesday or so. In that time you can submit to either or both contests.
