Okay, I think we can't use Keroas's map, it is too big, because as of the moment, we only have 8 nations. So I propose, that we find a map of The USA or something, and fraction of states to eachother. Just a suggestion. All I'm saying is that it is to much trouble to make a map for an 8 nation region, so I suggest one of us should get one already made, something 8 people can fit into. Any suggestions?

East Ying is suggesting what I suggested back in the old region: A real map but with our countries.

However if Kearos does move here we won't have to much of a problem...

In that case I suggest Europe. But who will edit the maps?

Well I could try my hand at it, just let me have a look for a sec.

As I thought I can't edit this particular map at all so I will use another European map that I know works, However can anyone suggest where i could find a website where i could store the maps?

Here is what I was looking for. It's a great, clear, definable, accurate, large map that we can use.

European Map

Fantastic, let me just write up a law defining the sub-laws of the Cartography Minister, it will be up within the hour.

There is one last thing, The map of Europe is rather small with limited spaces available for people to claim and some places that are more advantageous then others like the UK (Island) and Russia (huge) for example. Then I thought that whoever gets first pick would have a huge advantage over everybody else and so I thought this is too unfair.
However there is one continent that has none of those problems: Africa.
Using the same styled map we could use an African map, its landlocked and doesn't have any overly huge land plots. That way we don't need to have any amendments or anything like the one I suggested before that way keeping the peace.

here is the link: Africa

Once again, My Role Play administration will be put to use.

RPAG response:
Approved.
It is large enough to give everyone a proper choice on what type of landsize they would want. Cartography Act W1 laws still stand, and the ratio (see Cartography Act W1) is still in use.
RPAG promotes Imperial Overlord to position of Head of Gallican Cartography.
