    Being originally from Girona, Catalonia - just like to point out that the language is called Catalan - not Catalonian. Olso, Occitan is an over-branching term under which Gascon and Provençal are categorized. I believe Aquitaine is the French name for the historical province - not a language...
  2. World War Z

    What I liked most about this book was not only its realism in the sense of how the "zombie virus" came about (African Rabies) but in the fact that it wasn't entirely an apocalyptic book. Eventually, humanity prevailed over a population of diseased human beings, not supernatural minions of Satan.

    Interesting. I like the idea of Gondor stretching around the northern Mediterranean more, though. Gives it more of a Romanesque feel. I used a little book that has some stuff that Tolkien said about where Middle-Earth is on the map.

    Just for fun. Just FYI - Moria's in the Alps, not Provence.

    I mean, it's all up to negotiation. There's another version I thought of where all of the powers were European and Asian countries in their early days. Something like: England Scotland Switzerland Wallonia Holland France Normandy Castile Catalonia Portugal Lombardy Tuscany Sicily Venetia...

    Sultanate. Seeing as there was a Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, it seems appropriate to deem the state a "sultanate."

    The Uighurs will be angry that you left them out... ;)
  8. Developing Website

    So I've had this idea for a while now. It's essentially a spin-off of "Mosaic Earth" only there are several countries that are pre-determined and then set in a world where the majority of territories are unclaimed by any country. It's essentially a "start-from-scratch" colonial game where...

    I would have thought that young witches and wizards would go to schools based on linguistic borders. I mean, maybe the US would have two schools simply because of sheer size, but that wouldn't apply to most places.I could see maybe Belgian, French, and Monagesque students attending Beauxbatons...
  10. Map Thread II

    This is a project I've been working on for a long time. It's been a developing work with lots of research behind it. I'm hoping to actually develop it into a sort of online encylcopedia pretaining to this world I've created. It's called Allovictorian Earth. It comes from "allohistory" which is...

    Londo: It's very interesting that you think the Congo will still be in tact, and that China/Russia would allow for all of those territories to secede. But I could see Russia losing a lot of territory in the Caucasus.

    Acadia National Park and the Acadian region are two entirely separate entities. I believe (although I could be mistaken) Acadia was a general term used to depict eastern maritime Canada?
  13. Map Thread II

    Basically a "steampunk"world set in 1940, before what would be an alternate World War II. Points of interest include a German confederacy under a Hohenzollern (King Wilhelm II), a Bolivarian monarchy stretching from Colombia to French Guiana, several new states in North America, a bigger and...
  14. A Flag Thread

    This is a flag for a TL I'm developing where Atlantis never "sunk" beneath the sea and developed into a modern day country.The flag includes the crest of Madeira (which is an Atlantean possession) with a crest bearing the Greek flag in the right hand corner, representing the influence of Greek...

    Or even a Franco fascist state in Majorca?
