* New York City had seceded and claimed Long Island * Something weird is going on with the eastern tip of North Carolina. * Maryland annexed the Eastern Shore. * Florida annexed Alabama. * The Atlantic Ocean annexed Canada. * I've seen many representations of South Carolina but never one that put Charleston on a huge-rear end peninsula. * MaryLand * SERIOUSLY? SOUTH COROLINA!??

GyroNinja posted:You haven't heard of the Outer Banks barrier peninsula? Actually I meant to say western, but eastern is also looking rough. Edit: For the other map, the division between "Mid-Atlantic" and "East Coast" makes no sense. And ID/WY/[western]MT are Mountain, not Plains. No sir, I don't like it.

Poor Maine seems to have lost most of its land to the vast ocean that used to be Canada.

Notable European countries: Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Turkey. EDIT: Well, since it includes places like Norway and Switzerland, I guess it's more like a "Europe" thing rather than a EU thing. Given those countries long history with Europe, I'd buy it! DrSunshine fucked around with this message at 15:08 on Jul 13, 2016 |

the uk has been claimed the Chernobog DrSunshine posted:Notable European countries: Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Turkey. It's not a map of European countries, it's a map of the European Union. notice the little flags. Any other countries is just shown incidentally. such a colourful map would be ill-served by grey blobs all over.

Apparently Kaliningrad Oblast is great though. Transnistria too I loved the wrong map NATO's official Twitter account put out showing "Russia" and "not Russia". Good going guys, educating people on their mapmaking skills like idiots who try to correct someone's grammer alot with they're own mistakes.
