OK...

Version Changes

1.01: Updated RRC - MK borders; Sichuan and Qinhai to RRC.
1.02: Updated Australia:  Increased size of great lakes and moved NS border west.


I will get move onto Tirol and the Pacific Islands some time later today.  Also I need to do Brandenburg and Maoria.  Those are larger projects so I don't know when I will do them.

1.01: Updated RRC - MK borders; Sichuan and Qinhai to RRC.
1.02: Updated Australia:  Increased size of great lakes and moved NS border west.
1.03: Added Moaria to the map

Next up Brandenburg

At some point put ports on the map maybe a little anchor and a number 1 to 5 next to them.  Not any time soon as I have other things to do with the map first.  Like making the territories better match.

I'm confused, in the newest version, you seem to have reversed the RRC-MK changes.

Where are the two canals in Central America Located?  While I try to come up with something for Brandenburg I am thinking about improving the details of who controls what.

There are *3* Central American canals.

The GC controlled canal is the Darien canal, following the OTL Panama Canal route.

The Rohan controlled canal follows roughly the OTL proposed route for a canal across Nicaragua.

The French controlled canal can be divined from the little strip of French territory on this map: http://www.navalism.org/index.php?topic=2001.0

There's also a map somewhere showing all three, which I can't find right now, but I'm looking.

EDIT: aha! The map in this post has two of the three: http://www.navalism.org/index.php?topic=68.msg2444#msg2444

Version Changes

1.04: Added Central America Canal Notes
1.05: Added Chiloe Island
1.06: Added Chuvosa Archipelago Island Names
1.07: Added Chagos Archipelago and Some Island Names (I need to put the color in for Brandenburg islands but they have their names)
1.08: Added Brandenburg homeland.  Not sure its big enough.

In theory the "rough" outline of the world is done.  Now time to move onto detail items.  Africa and Europe are the first places that will need some work.  Any thoughts on what I have so far?  Any islands people want to be added or claimed as more than a few are oversized and white currently.

Shouldn't Maoria be a bit further West? Now it is closer to mainland South America than to Neubrandenburg.

Hmmmm - Italia Aquired all of Libya right up to the WWII Borders I believe.   Tobruk and Bengahzi are Ports within the Empire.

But the border only goes south so far  we can discuss it Friday if you want.

Version Changes

1.09: Moved Moaria west a bit
1.10: Changed Control of Rhineland to be split between Baltic and France to remove the direct connection between Bavaria and Netherlands.
1.11: Split Venetia into Venetia (Italian) and Triest (Bavarian).  Sawed off  part of westen Austria and added to Tyrol Province (Bavarian).
1.12: Added Cyrenacia and Kurfra to Italian N. Africa.
1.13: Created Paratehys Sea out of Caspian Sea and Aral Sea.  A quick observation from Mike for the sea to matter it really needs two things. 1st a sea connection to Black Sea.  2nd another power on it besides Russia that can build things.  Otherwise its fairly pointless change.
1.14: Increased size of Tanganyia (Italian) at expense of Songea (Brandenburg).
1.15: Added color to Brandenburg Chagos

So - does anybody think we need a bigger sea in the middle of Asia?

For that matter, do we need wonky geography around the Rohirrim coast?

It's cool. And we can explain it by the existence of the Sarmathian Gates - a sea level passage between the Parathetys and the Black Sea ...

I say leave Rohan's wierd coast in; I don't want to remove it.  ;)

As to Black Sea to the Paratehys connection that would still require a nation on it other than Russia that can build something.  Its a neat idea but its time might really come in Navalism 4 I suspect...

Borys by the way where is this "Sarmathian Gates" exactly?
