Long term map project

[G-Klav]

I need native names for cities of provs Ermeland (?Erme), Halicz (or Galizien) and Zemgale (or Semgallia) along Dougava river.

I need right text for Zolyom, Sopron or Szaszfold (with the right o) by Jorian.

I won't give 1 precious prov to territories with an extension under 1000kmq; here are some examples just to be serious:
Lakhadives with 32 kmq absent
Bermudas with 59 kmq absent
Channel Isles with 200 kmq absent
Elba with 226 kmq merged with Maremma prov
Maldives with 300 kmq absent
Malta with 316 kmq merged with Messina prov
Wight with 380 kmq merged with Sussex prov
St. Helens with 410 kmq absent
Seychelles with 455 kmq absent
Man with 572 kmq merged with Lancashire prov
Bahrein with 662 kmq merged with Qatar prov
Anglesey with 676 kmq merged with Gwynedd prov
Madeira with 900 kmq merged with Canarias prov

Some of these islands were important in history, so I really don't like your approach even though I understand the line has to be drawn somewhere.

And rather than merge, remove them completely, as merging e.g. Malta with Sicily or Madeira with the Canaries makes about as much sense as merging Japan with Korea or England with France.

The islands I would personally keep on a map are Malta, Bahrein, the Seychelles, the Maldives and Madeira.

Why so many provinces in Australia? And Madagascar for that matter?

 

[elvain]

May I ask on what is based your Arabia?
It is almost completely wrong

You have 2 small provinces in area which was never populated at all while some other terrioties that should get more provinces.. not speaking of really weird spelling which is hybrid between english and arabic? or what? how the hack you got idea to make Arabia like this?

Elio I'am going to work on a second job now after my first. And I never now what time the second job is, they will call me some days and then i most work.

So I will not have so much time at home any longer.

So maybe it is better to get another map maker or wait on me to come up on msn or icq, but that will not be every day any more.

Why did i start to work on a second job?
* Need more money
* Need to be in better shape (Going to be a big mountain if I will not start to do some thing)
* To much time at the computer

Are thinking on if I should abandon Paradox Interactive and maybe come back when EU3 will be released. Also start to learn some more languages!
I could start whit the nice german language!

Elio if you accept I could learn you to produce the map your self, I could take some pictures on how to produce the map and all settings!

I'm preparing my weddings in next August and try to keep on defining provs in my free time. My girlfriend isn't fond of EU II (You can imagine it).
I hope best things for You of course in real life. Read forum thread as more as You can.
This world map is a not ended study, new provs can be added in the future to reach EU II limit, names can be changed of course; edit Your suggested map.
I'm going on according to extension of single areas and trying to avoid PTI if possible.

Why I said Sweden looked weird...

It was missing Jämtland and Lappland, and it just didn't look very "Sweden'ish"

 

[unmerged(30948)]

everything is temporary in this map, open to new suggestions

 

[unmerged(30948)]

ok

You could improve already started map starting from northwestern corner (Alaska ...) with some provs a day linking 1 prov to another one ...

Looks really good.

Looks really good.

Any suggestion for Australia inland?
I could delete Great Australian Desert as PTI inserting few provinces.

 

[unmerged(49083)]

Make the PTI a useless province called "Great Australian Desert" but perhaps it could be a COT to indicate it is linking to SO many provinces.

 

[orimazd]

I'm interested.

 

[unmerged(51378)]

(even if not many ones are interested in it)

I like your project Elio and I've been following it for quite some time now. Don't think because nobody posts they're not interested.
Just dropped by to let you know .

Sincerely this forum was not open for personal comments, but for edits with historical maps or historical informations about provs; pls avoid spamming.

See why I didn't post .
