Updating the map
Spoiler: show

I forgot to tell you that you can also use conscript that will be used in some maps(but others will require romanization so that they can be read)
Sometime in the coming week I'll make individual map for every worked-on country and also a list of its toponyms and names.

p.s. red means that the country is already taken

Pulling out one of my naming langs, 8 would be Ondéiris or Djilysch, whichever you prefer. (from *ndíl-wyʃ)

Nortaneous, would you mind doing the toponyms for 15 and 17 also? They and Ondéiris are historically connected, so it makes sense for the people to speak languages from the same family also.

That first lang I used is part of the only actual language family I have, so:

8: Ondéiris
15: Hýnčen
17: Pirnákri

Ill claim 4, but before giving out a name I am wondering. What degree of creation are we given? Are we just naming them, or are we allowed to describe the conculture of that region?

Here is the map uploaded on a different site:

I switched to a more common way of projecting the planet's surface, so I need to get rid of pixelization - an annoyingly slow process.

Rather just naming them, the story, concultures and such are already made. Though if you are that much interested, there are lots of small indigenous tribes and cultures around the globe.

While that is slightly less interesting, I do understand. Are these cultures and stories someplace we could view? I wouldnt want to name the region modled after south-east asia a name better fitting to a culture of eastern Europe

As of yet - no. I'll post the history of 4, I see you are interested in it. It'll take me some time though, as it's lengthy.

The individual maps of countries are coming later today(hopefully).

I also forgot to mention you are free to name the continents, straits and other geographical objects spanning in more than one country.

edit: I was about to post a seperate map for every country, but then I realized the zoom makes them too pixelazed, so the only difference are the cities; I will do bother to create higher-resolution maps later when I have the time and need
