well these are original ideas that i think people would like. i mean the F and I war map is about america, canada, france, england and many Indian nations. i dont see why you guys hate that. and if a guy made a US apocalypse, why can't i make a Washington State, i could add more territories, those are just counties

The countries dispersion and borders dont seem ok. The black continent and the red one are wasted. The light gray one is ok, but looks like a box. In fact, the west portion looks like a shelf.

Maybe you dont realize, but this doesnt seem a good region to create a map. Even why, we shouldnt have a map of one insignificant region like this (no offenses, please), unless it has new features, I believe.

French and Indian war... I thought it was a war between France and India (that Asian country)... Instead of another one North America based map, wouldnt be more interesting a map of China, or Russia, or maybe the whole Asia (our Asia map isnt from Asia, but "Far East")?

The FI war was between France and the Iriquois and other tribes for control of the Ohio Valley, mainly. Maybe shift from Washington to Pacific Northwest and include southern BC, northern Cali, parts of Idaho and Montana and all of Oregon.

well, first you forgot about Britain. the whole thing was who gets control of NA. if britain wins, we all speak English, if France wins, we speak French. Indians were used as allies


Second, i dont have enough expertise on the Pacific NW, i can barely do a Washington map.

If anything, you need to have a border signifying the cascade mountain range in the middle through chelan and okanogon counties, which would make whatcom and skagit more apart of a western territory. Hell , the cascades effectively split the politcal, economic, and temperature climates in the state in half. Also, the columbia river is pretty big, and that should probably be a factor surrounding the north west side of grant county as well. If you need more territories, seattle and spokane could be made into their own individual territories as well.

i find this hilarious, when my history teacher was talking about the ethnocentricity of renaming the seven years war the french and indian war in America he said if we asked anyone outside of the US about it they would give this exact response!

I try to learn the administrative divisions of different anglophone countries so I'm not totally left in the dust during conversation.
