Well, Lake Chad was way larger during the early Holocene, encompassing an area of around 1 million square kilometers at an elevation of 329m. It lasted until around 5,000 years ago when the African humid period ended. But, an area in the north called the Bodélé Depression still had standing water until the 11th century.Lake Chad next;
Plenty for 20thC
Prior to that not so much if at all
I am so happy to see a new historical map made by someone who knows how to make them (alas, I am too incompetent). As per frickin usual, I am left with a few questions. One of them is brought about for my love of Osprey Military History books.View attachment 711556
August 6 750, the Abbasids kick the Umayyads to the curb, but then they both troll a bunch of usurpers in Spain and North Africa
Thanks for still creating the Patch, I really appreciate it.Despite the patch for Mega Chad I'm not going to be producing a world map for that timeframe
No probsThanks for still creating the Patch, I really appreciate it.
The Nordalbingian tribes were finally defeated at the 798 Battle of Bornhöved by the combined forces of the Franks and their Obotrite allies led by Prince Drożko. The Saxons lost 4,000 people, 10,000 families of Saxons were deported to other areas of the Carolingian Empire.Nordalbians
The Franks had a land ruled by a Single monarch, who had already subjugated the Lombards {allied with the Avars previously] and who was co-operating with the Bulgars to the Avar's south.What did the Magyars have that the Avars didn't
Not quite, Samo's Empire, for whatever reason, was heavily linked with Samo himself, and so effectively died when he died. We don't particularly know all that much about his empire after him, if it even stayed around, because there aren't any written sources from either native slavs or even Franks concerning it. That little state in the Czech Republic is just what I used for the Czech tribes in the area.Is that's all that's left of Samo's kingdom? Do they play rhapsodies there?
On another note, I'm going to take advantage of this opportunity and ask if it's possible, when making a Roman Empire map (if anyone is interested in doing that) to show the provincial subdivisions, the conventi iuridici? Just a question, not a demand.
This is the best I have, see the Jutland folder; google link named "From Bremdals Historiebog"@Bob Hope What is the straight in Denmark that separated Vendsyssel into 2 islands called?
Thank you, I eventually want to start a TL with a PoD around that time so this is very useful to me.August 6 750, the Abbasids kick the Umayyads to the curb, but then they both troll a bunch of usurpers in Spain and North Africa
I see there are dates with it, I just would like to get a range from when it existed to when it was eventually closed. From the patches it looks like it was fully closed around 1450.This is the best I have, see the Jutland folder; google link named "From Bremdals Historiebog"

The data shows a gradual silting of that area but does not give any dates for its final closure. I have made the assumption that the storms of the 1280's would have contributed and that the final nail would be the storm of 1362 which definitely affected the west coast of Jutland; https://da.wikipedia.org/wiki/Den_Store_Manddrukning [translated].I see there are dates with it, I just would like to get a range from when it existed to when it was eventually closed.

Just checking, I'll add it to the updates that I'm making to the old maps I've madeThe data shows a gradual silting of that area but does not give any dates for its final closure.

It was an informed decision to do the patches for closure between 1300-1450.
good map, try this link https://omniatlas.com/maps/sub-saharan-africa/19050919/After much work, I have finished translating the 1905 Hisatlas Africa map into QBAM!

I do think this needs a lot of improvement (especially in terms of native African entities) so feel free to point me towards sources for them! If I get enough stuff I will 100% make an improved version.
