A random burst of creative energy that couldn't really be directed at my existing projects with more moving parts. Here is a basic projection of the Earth with the 'land' hemisphere to the North, and the 'sea' hemisphere to the south.
Antarctica is the next phase if I get an hour or so, or get lucky eye-balling the projection issues around it, then the
mind-breaking Canadian Archipelago, then taking a look at the new Arctic Circle region to see if anything is going to form glacial lakes or ice-shelves, and then maybe consider how the Antarctic Circle or ice-cap acts when it's mostly water surrounded by mostly water. This last one is something I can't get a proper handle on still, so any notes would be appreciated (by everyone, I'm sure).
So far I'm thinking Guinea in West Africa could end up as a kind of *Europe dominated by a *Russia which extends across North Africa; the New World is still likely to be out of contact with the Old World by the Atlantic Route, but not the Pacific; the Silver River in South America could end up being very important but maybe not a superpower seed; Madagascar could be our *Britain; North America, Antarctica, and Australia are potential USA style superpower seeds; Japan might be Japan, India might be India, Indochina might be Indochina, the geopolitics seems to shake out in the same way for them; I think China is a desert now, but not sure; I never know what might happen in a more fertile and accessible Siberia, so that's interesting again; and that's it for obvious ones.
