Hey folks, first official map here and shortly on the sidebar.

Couple things to note:

• A scale. A pixel is 4.5km wide/tall (roughly 2.8mi) and 20.25km^2, or 7.91mi^2. Yeah it's a little inconvenient but it was what worked best in the design stages for latitude and stuff.
• Everybody has both a fill colour and a border colour. These are your culture and state colours respectively. What they represent is described on the Expansions wiki page
• Not everyone elected to give me colours to put on the map, but many of you did. It isn't too late - if you'd like specific colours on the map, please make a comment in this thread.
• Actually, if there's any errors or requests at all, drop them in the map changes request thread.

Finally, one question worth asking and answering:

• Q: Admortis, why bother showing all that fog?
• A: It's a stylistic decision made so that when we have albums full of claim (and other) maps, we can flick through them chronologically and know with certainty that things will be in the same relative position, thereby making for the smoothest aesthetic. If the map was instead expanded as discoveries were made, this would look janky and make reference to what was actually discovered week to week harder. Basically, we want cool gifs of exploration once we're in the year 1500 and colonialism is booming.
