I like these two.
We do quite enough political maps as it is, so something like these would be great.

There's never enough political maps, and besides, I'd rather start off with something simple... despite, admittedly, giving something not so simple).
Why are we all bolding if all we're doing is posting bolded stuff? Surely something non-bolded would stand out more?
The idea of ethnic groups settling differently has been done a bunch before and the trouble with it is that it all ends up a bit too fantasy and only really appreciated by those who know about different old ethnic groups and whatnot.
I like the Henry VIII as HRE one. Has that ever been done in a TL?
Could be very interesting to have so weak a emperor at that time....

I dunno, the socio-geographic steampunk suggestion gives me an idea... if that isn't picked, I'll probably do something like that anyways.

I took a few shots at it - I had Catherin of Aragon succeed to the Castilian throne via her older sisters dying, and their child *Edward inheriting the Aragonese throne, so England and Spain were united under a single Tudor dynasty. But then it went a bit downhill for me.

A metro or subway system for a city that currently doesn't have one or isn't very big.
Alternate population density map of a country or region.
I agree, we need to have more maps other than political ones.

Subway maps are really boring and require intimate knowledge of the city IMO. Drawing lines with circles that have names on them... eh.
hmm....ish.
I'd tend more towards fun to do but not so grand to look at if you're unfamiliar with the place.
How about a train system network? Like a subway but on a bigger and more widely accessible scale

A train system's fine too. We just don't see enough AH transportation maps.hmm....ish.

Rail/transport systems are cool, too.A train system's fine too. We just don't see enough AH transportation maps.
Come to think of it, while occassionally someone will do a rail or road map, I don't think I've seen a canal-centric one before. Anybody here recollect seeing a map focusing on canals? We should totally go for a CANALWANK MAP CHALLENGE or something like that.
