We already have an ireland map. and ireland is not the only celtic land.

I suggest you make it set in the dark ages when the celtic nations were some of the major powers.

then you could have:

Scotland-west scotland & northern ireland
Pictland-East scotland & outer hebridies
Strathclyde-south-west scotland at some points streaching down western england almopst to wales
Wales-wales
Cernu (west Wales)-Cornwall
Mann-Isle of man
Bréton-Brittany France


(these are mostly spelled wrong tho)

Now that does look promicing It looks pre-roman era so you want:

Brittania- UK
Gaul france & italy
Hispania-Spain
Germania-Germany-poland aria
Dacia-Around serbia
Thrace-Romania/bulgaria

I dont think the origional celtic names survive so you'll hacve to use the ones given by the romans


*why is there a boarder on northern ireland?
*at this period the celts didn't have nations
*your avvy is horrid BTW

All of ireland was a celtic nation, i suppose i should have said uk and ireland.

2. i'm working on the time when they did.

If were making a celtic map there two time periods that are where the celts reached peaks.

1. Pre-roman era: Celts spread through europe in a simular pattern to the map you've got now.

2. Dark age, post roman era: Celts no longer occupy mainland europe exept brittany in france They do however occupy all of ireland, all of scotland, a small streach of the west coast of england from scotland to wales (they lose this to the Northumbrians pretty soon though.), And cornwall


3. what is avvy?

4. do you want to help me with the inside territorys?

This map is on a great site, anyway, it shows the provinces of the roman empire, but underneath it shows the names of the tribes that were there before (see Dumnonii in cornwall)

I had thought of this before but didn't persue it. I did find a lot of info for the Celtic tribes for some of the areas. I'll go find it and post it for you.

What a celt is is a very difficut concept but the first people who the romans called celts were in germany and the celtic culture did spread to northern turkey

nice coming together a lot more work though.
maybey for an added layer to this you can have celtic cultural centers be bolded and given some sort of bonus for holding all or a percent of them
