Description
It's a fantasy map revamped from my old, old sketches.Not especially original land mass, as certain similarities to the real world were unavoidable, given the fact that two warring superpowers, Makranian Dominate and Samarshahr, are based on the Late Roman Empire and Sassanid Kingdom of Persia.
Scale:
Distance from city of Videric to the city of Ulahid is roughly equivalent to the real world distance from Oslo, Norway to the Cairo, Egypt - 3657.11 kilometers (2272.42 miles).
Only the biggest or most important settlements are marked.
Underlined names are for capital cities while crosslined ones are for sites of famous ruins - capitals of long defunct empires of old.
The Argent Wall is the largest existing built structure, a massive belt of fortifications separating The Silvery Kingdom of Elves from the realms of men. It is comparable only with the real world Great China Wall or Hadrian's Wall.
Main political powers and factions:
Humans - the Makranian Dominate - [link]
Humans - Samarshahr
Humans - Northerners
Elves - the Silvery Kingdom - [link]
Orks - the Scourge of the Steppes - [link]
Dwarves - the Nine Kingdoms

Just yesterday I uploaded a very much less original map than yours. So it was a plesant suprise to see you upload a map as well.
Have another fav, as I dont think you have nearly enough of them.

Actually, this map is utilitarian as hell. The only reason for such placement for major factions is to give them as much trouble and reason for warfare as possible. And to prevent faction from ultimate victory each of them has borders with at least two other major factions. It's a world of constant warfare made on purpose.
