Description My take on a realistic possibility for San Escobar, a fictional country born from a slip of tongue of the Polish foreign affairs minister Witold Waszczykowski, on January 10th this year. He meant to say "Saint Kitts and Nevis", but his mouth thought otherwise and unleashed the internet. Many maps (mostly satiric) are present already, so this is my take for it to exist realistically in our world. I've placed iton a shallow bank just west of Saint Kitts in the Caribbean sea, and I've added some places from satiric maps and the "Know your Meme" page of San Escobar, which contains a detailed description of the island complete with photos. It even has an "official" flag, capital (yes that's the name)
This is my first physical map ever! Tell me if I missed or made something wrong.
I think I'll make a political map soon.

Guess the point of divergence is that Spain got there first and stayed.

I didn't really think of a story, it's just a meme after all...
