What is this you may ask? Well, it's a (rough) patch of Somaliland. (Wow..Somaaliland...casaan aad u badan ayaa aad ku haysaa halkaas!)
There's also Puntland on this map. Somaliland and Puntland do not like each other that much. Hence why so many red lines near the border.
Enjoy! (Sorry for the edits, I was fixing mistakes.)

The red dots on the corners aren’t aligned.
Hope its not interfering with the current project.
I made a quick rough Hydrological map.
Based it on the Robinson 8K map.

Sorry for taking this long to reply but thanks for that site, I think later on when I am done with what I'm doing now(may take as long as the end of the year), I'll start doing some of these. And really, thanks for it site it and some wikipedia Maps might actually make this doable.
What Apps do you guys use for Geo-referencing. I get its easier to do for stuff like X-BAMs but trying to do by eye is killing me.
What did you use to align this map?

I don't use geo-referencing qgis or anything like that. very old fashioned, mostly done by eye.
I overlaid the new map on my previous maps to achieve the terrain, re-did the rivers etc all by eye.
This is not as difficult as it seems as I keep any maps I do of this type in the same alignment so an entire world map can super-impose over another entire world map.
I'm going to have another try at qgis this year but frankly, I enjoy taking the time to produce minor details
What I do is go over the source map I'm using with bright colours in a new layer in PDN and then overlay it onto the basemap, that way you do things better than eyeballing but without needing to warp shit with gis.
It is not, the scope of the project is way outside what I'm able to invest right now, which means that I'd encourage that, if anyone wants to pick it up in my stead, they do so
(and I'm working back thru my reservoirs project now anyways)
The farthest limit of Barbarossa (02.12.41)
Ight so I decided to pull myself up the bootstraps and make some Qbammys (probably not too accurate but eh)

Hey, I've been working on the Ganges, but the locator maps on wikipedia have different administrative boundaries, which makes it somewhat confusing to base it off of that map since theres just a couple discrepancies. This is mainly with their second-level divisions, but there are a few first level divisions which have some small differences between these maps and the qbam ones we edited.
I was wondering how much of India we ended up working on. I know we did coastlines, 3rd and 4th lvl divisions in a few states, but was there a big patch for India and the surrounding India? It's just throwing me off a bit working with different maps, and I'd like to know if I need to go through and make a couple patches here and there

I would have expected more of Bangladesh to be under water.Ight so I decided to pull myself up the bootstraps and make some Qbammys (probably not too accurate but eh)
Actually, the ND/SD line is specifically based on 45'55 because of the Coteau des Prairies
Do you have a normal sea level version with these graticules and coast shadows?Ight so I decided to pull myself up the bootstraps and make some Qbammys (probably not too accurate but eh)
