Howdy,

Here, belatedly, are the End HY 2, 1920 maps.

A river port has been added.
Readings for the potential Mayan conflict have established that seagoing vessels may reach the port of Cuidad Bolivar Venezuala below the cataracts.
This is the first spot bridged, and the river is still a mile wide.

There has been a port about this point since the age of sail.
It kept getting sacked and moved, but 'counts' for River Port.
Basically - it can hold modern ocean going ships, but was developed long long ago.

It is mapped as belongs to the Maya. But they have to go through the Parthian-controlled Delta to get there.

For Resources, there were a couple new spots added.
It's really odd to toggle back and forth and see spots folks have 'just missed' Psst Maddox has done this allot.

Vilnus finds ... I don't recall what it was for, but guessing Gold, as in 'Gold Coast'.

The Norse find that the Boreal forest is very expensive to develop and yields little, but the Black Hills have Gold..and a bunch of other minerals,
they will have to negotiate with the locals. Who due to the different history probably would not be Sioux, as they came to the plains from the lake states. But may be.

Parthia discovers the Nevada Silver Mines and some minerals in New Zealand

China discovers that the swampy jungle in central Borneo is not so good.





Did they beat the drum slowly,
Did they play the fife lowly,
Did they sound the death march, as they lowered you down,
Did the band play the last post and chorus,
Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest

Just as well that the Norse didn't find the Yellowknife gold belt.  The historical one's left quite the arsenic problem behind it.

The old Atlas with the resource symbols was pretty small scale (zoomed out), so everything is approximate...somewhat intentionally.
But I took guesses as to what known resource they were connected to when putting them on the original resource basemap.

Did they play the fife lowly,

Now I look forward to seeing if Nebraska ends up as the flashpoint for a new war or if endures as a lonely neutral NPC with four major powers for neighbours.

Much like on our South American border, there's an agreed line of advance from the West.   
However, the Norse...who Parthia wants to link up to..at the Missouri,
well they are an NPC and so may take the Missouri from me since I can't talk to them.
I do have to look hard at where the presumed Norse IC is, and count provinces
as they may not be able to reach. ...1921 problems.

I can't make it to Nebraska, so I'd say the likelihood of war over it is nil.
