I'll try making a new request. Alternative you can inset the Water Resource Region on this map here.
I wanted to have this alternative USA to have the Water Resource Region as its internal border
This could be a simple one: Dragon Warrior III has this neat overworld map based on the real world, with the exception being the giant continent between little Australia and the Americas.
If you were to "un-morph" that continent back to something that would fit in the real Earth (in the same way that the fantasy continents of this setting are morphed versions of our world), what would Aliahan look like?
Here's a fan recreation for reference:

Not a map request, just seeking advice.
If I've got a rough sketch of a physical map, and want to give a 3D-esque impression of hill and mountain formations, is there some way I could, for example, select the coloured area I've assigned to hills and bend/warp said terrain in such a way I'd get a 3D-esque undulating effect, like in some Wikipedia maps? Or any other similar trick.

I forgot, this is an example of the kinda effect I'm after:

That's different shades of colour for different heights, combined with a bit of map shading (simulating the light coming from the top-left of the pic, which is best for perception, apparently). Here's a couple of sites which might be of some help - one focussed on real-world maps, the other on fantasy:
