January Map Thread!
Welcome to a new year and also a new map! Nothing too out of the ordinary here, but a makeshift key was added! Not all items on the map are on the key, that may or may not change depending on how players feel about the key.

Someday Xen will bless us with something more official link wise, but for now, we meet pCloud.com servers again! There is a bit of a question mark as to the exact borders in the Far East, but that'll hopefully be fixed soon. For now, there are names in their place but no borders. Lastly, Italian City-State NPCs were added for additions like Tibur and other fun oddities. They should be treated as city-states on their own right, but should an Italian nation appear and want to absorb them, they can. Until then, we have some helpful history building that can be done there.

Many have complained about this link in the past saying they have to make an account! Nope! Not true! Make sure you read all the small print and if I remember right on mobile you have to click download. The the newest file is perhaps large for phones though, so if you have a data plan on your phone that you have to worry about, don't say I didn't warn you! The file size can be found next to the file.

To protect the fairness of our game, please make all requests for alteration to the map publicly. The Mapmaker will not make changes based on Discord, PM, Skype or any other private or offsite conversations. We will not accept requests forwarded anywhere other than official public map threads.

INACTIVITY & DISCLAIMER

Role play activity will prevent deletion from the map, there is no minimum activity needed to prevent removal as it is due to Mapmaker discretion, though an announcement of departure in the Absence Thread will excuse a drop off of activity. Prior to removal, the inactive player will usually be placed on the Inactivity Listing, allowing new players to assume their map spot should the player not return to in-character activity. The Mapmaker & Administration can remove, edit, add, or deny changes to the map based on existing rules or past lessons learned - clarification on the reasoning of these exceptional decisions can and will be given upon reasonable inquiry.

INACTIVITY LISTING

LOL - I noticed one of Justosia's airline routes didn't move along with the city. It's fixed on the .psd file and will be reflected whenever the next update launches

I do have this slight request, rather than simply turn of the light switch on CaliNatal and flick it on on South African Natal, if you could edit it a little, and make the border to the north go along the black line, rather than how it was, with the city of Mzuzu being moved where the green dot it. Also, if Drei would be okay with it, although I hardly see why not, if you could give the Dune Sea that area around the orange line, as I would want a direct border with it, but I'm not a big fan of the borders Natal will have if it would be given to it.

I am not going to offend you with poor map making skills but I would like the spot below Hajr and to the east of the Himyari People's United Republic.

In terms of shape, think an elongated Sudan (so my southern border close to where that massive lake / inner sea finishes).

Location : As described
Name of Country : Azraq
Capital: Jugol
Location of Capital : Between the two small lakes in the north east
Additional Major Cities and Locations : Fashir (near border with Hajr), Zariba (somewhere in the middle), Gabood (somewhere on the coast not too far north), Haradhera (same as Gabood), Waw (near border with HPUR)

A) Originally had this in mind but I noticed Tarusa's territory got enlarged during the last update. Did I miss a claim or something?
@Tarusa I guess you want to preserve that situation?
B) @Tarusa I would in that case propose this situation, where the space in between is further divided amongst @Tarusa and Hradreych perhaps?

Location : Prefer situation A, but given the situation hopefully B ^_^
Name of Country : (Karzask People's Republic)
Capital: Uzghin AND Kuzan
Location of Capital : Map
Additional Major Cities and Locations : Albatay, Bura, Ezenkent, Kusdukasim, Kuzan, Manasaz, Uzghin


And green Madaray (keep Salen!)

I mean I am unopposed to either option really. The westward expansion was kinda a coro inspired idea amongst other things and I was like ehh sure, it'll give me some more siberian feels as I left it to his creativity.

I get the Kazakhstan vibe here if I'm looking at it right? so maybe option B as it will be that mix of Eurasia feels of being that blended pot.

The most appropiate label for Karzask would be that of , a political union of Ural-Altaic and Turkic peoples. In a nutshell, imagine Karzask as Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan forming a country with Russia's ... I use combined derivatives from Kazakh, Kyrgyz and even Mongol as placenames etc. Kazakh translations and transliterations are used for the factbook - as the Karzask language. That will explain the Kazakh vibe being visibly dominant. With Hradreych and Tarusa neighboring Karzask, I envision a small Rusic minority as well.

I'm okay too , if Coro and Touzen allow it. I could also redo , whereby I move your border from Ilimsk to halfway Batistayga and close to Bura...? Then your plot would indeed be bigger, but not as it is now?​

I will be joining in and request a fellow deletion of Cyrene, as part of the great Pelasgian Tide. It went, as it came... fast.

As I simply cannot do without a second, I apologise in anticipation of all the ire I attract with all of this, but meekly request the following:
Location :- Ivernia and Prydein
Name of Country :- Deira
Capital :- Newham
Location of Capital :-
Replacing Caladbolg
Additional Major Cities and Locations :- Holbury (replacing Dun De), Easton (Penydarren), Clutton (Saint's Cross), Poulton (Vedrarfjord), Barnsley (Waesfjord). Keep Portcastle, Lowport and Sandycroft.

As part of replacing Prydein, could Deira also keep its colony, the Green Free State? If it could be renamed to Andros Islands and its main city renamed to Southaven.

I added the factbook for the new label of Andros Isles for Prydein's old colony, the Green Free State. I also want to combine Natal and Deira by making the former an official colony of the latter, with the factbook of colonial Natal .

I'd like to note that Nouvelle Bourgogne has a problem in that I have redrawn the map in that location. Do you authorize me to create something similar-ish in that region on the new map geography?
