The aim of the game is to create a world. There is no game at the end of the creation, it is an effort in world building to create a realistic impression of a world, but starting with creating the countries.

A bonus map is a map that is separate, has a limited time to fill it, and if it isn't completely filled everything else becomes Terra nullus, and/or has a limited amount of nations that can be put on it.

The POD of this world will be decided. The current year is 1850, and there can be major colonial empires on one continent, but on most of the others they would rebel or mostly rebel by this point. You may edit in nations when a nation already exists there, mostly in the example of filler nations would this be needed.

Areas coloured grey on the map are NOT allowed to be claimed on, as they are part of other continents. Borders must be ONE PIXEL THICK and coloured black. The map must always be saved as a PNG image.

The moderators are myself and Naru so we have reserve a right to alter borders slightly if we see fit. Note that you may claim several nations on one continent, as we may have not many players.

PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT a map game/nations game. This is a map continuation. This one is also only to be used when either Map Continuation 1 is locked, or is finished.

I thought you meant the other Map Continuation.

POD? Period of Display? I think I'll jump in here.

Darvince · « **Reply #7 on:** December 10, 2011, 06:55:48 PM »

POD = Point Of Divergence.
ATL = Alternate TimeLine

atomic7732 · « **Reply #8 on:** December 10, 2011, 06:56:02 PM »

Point of Diversion, iirc.

Ninja'd by Darv.

smjjames · « **Reply #9 on:** December 10, 2011, 06:58:35 PM »

I got the ATL part already, just wasn't sure what you meant by POD.

Iceland-Scandinavian Alliance An alternative I thought of was Norselandic Union, if you want to use that, but I wasn't sure. Also, Svalbard (the name of the island group near the top I believe) isn't really inhabited (unless you want armored bears in this ATL

), just claimed by Scandinavia.

Edit: The nation is now called Nordic Kingdoms.

Oops, Naru, could you merge that one and mine? I put mine up while you were posting I guess.

Edit: Or I'll just slap it on myself.

If I draw the borders horribly, can you please fix them or do I have to draw them correctly or my map is invalid?

Just use the most recently posted one and you should be okay.

Edit: Updated map. I made the line as similar as possible, but as Darvince said, he or Naru can adjust them as needed.

Naru523 · « **Reply #14 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:17:56 PM »

Quite.

smjjames · « **Reply #15 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:19:40 PM »

Now people are going to be confused whether you want the one with the border in the austrian alliance or the one without.

Naru523 · « **Reply #16 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:21:16 PM »

Nah, me, darv, and atomic were discussing about the situation in the IRC. It was for a border change since the Danubian Union/Austria was a bit large (not really much a problem, though.)

deoxy99 · « **Reply #17 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:24:47 PM »

New Roman Republic has formed. Fix the borders if necessary.

smjjames · « **Reply #18 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:31:18 PM »

Anybody think we should have the United Kingdom islands, well, united? I was thinking of them being as one, but also add the Normandy area and the northwestern part of France since the British kept that area this time around.

Darvince · « **Reply #19 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:31:28 PM »

WHY DID YOU CLAIM GREECE?!
AAA

smjjames · « **Reply #20 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:33:23 PM »

It's an alternate timeline, I like that idea though of what deoxy did.

@Naru: Which IRC? universe sandbox?

Darvince · « **Reply #21 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:37:16 PM »

Grand Duchy of Naples

Redid smjjames's nation a bit to fill in areas and chopped off Iceland, as it looked a bit weird.

deoxy99 · « **Reply #22 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:38:10 PM »

Dude, you didn't add mine...

Darvince · « **Reply #23 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:39:23 PM »

Well you kept the old Austria-Hungary/Danube Republic

smjjames · « **Reply #24 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:40:10 PM »

Now I need to rename that as Icelandic-Scandinavian alliance doesn't fit anymore. IMO Norselandic Kingdom should be okay, although sounds a little on the fantasy side for the map. So, will Norselandic Kingdom work for you guys?

deoxy99 · « **Reply #25 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:42:07 PM »

Nordic Union would sound better.

vh · « **Reply #26 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:42:46 PM »

um taken while i try nationcreating.

Darvince · « **Reply #27 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:43:57 PM »

Actually, Norselandic doesn't sound fantastical, as Norse doesn't inherently mean fantastical things, such as fairy tales or Yggdrasil.

deoxy99 · « **Reply #28 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:44:51 PM »

Uhh, no, you may not take this turn because Darvince didn't put my nation in his map.

smjjames · « **Reply #29 on:** December 10, 2011, 07:47:22 PM »

I meant the way it sounded tone wise as far as the nation names already put up. However, I'd agree with deoxy, Nordic Union (or Nordic Kingdom, or Nordic Empire....) sounds somewhat better.

Also, I think deoxys nation should be on there as well....

Poll

Should Siberia be a bonus map or a normal one?
