I think china is sort of covered with the maps currently available / in development. Specifically the asia map but also the yellow sea(?) map which is in development.

edit: OR give it a historical focus, maybe the three kingdoms period.

I personally dont like continents with 2 countries, but they are becoming very popular...

Beyond that, most areas have too many borders.
And, you have some tiny and some huge territories, you could make better use of space.

yeah i know about the borders, i haven't had time to make impossible borders, and the huge territories is for a reason i think, because there are much mountains in the west.

here comes anather update:

without lines

Guiscard · Post by **Guiscard** » Sat Jan 27, 2007 8:40 am

Without, and I like the visual style. The sea texture is wonderful. I don;t know whther these are your actual territory boundaries but the two little ones in the darker blue continent and the little one in red probably need to be merged, else on the small version they'll barely be visable. Also one of the yellows needs to be changed in my opinion as they are very similar. Maybe a darker green?

Wisse · Post by **Wisse** » Sat Jan 27, 2007 8:42 am

thats what i thought too, but here is anather something:
i have made sea routes, they are not ready yet (i don't know how to make them good) but here are where they will come:

does someone know how to make them good? and i coudn't found a picture of a bridge because when i typ that in google i get 5mil things...
lone.phropet can i use the brown bridges u tryed for your map but didn't used? (if i can can you post the image here)

i will merge them and eum the litte one in the red is big enough i think,
and i think i will change the color of the yellow in the right above

But what should i do with the little one in light blue, because thats a very important "state"

Guiscard · Post by **Guiscard** » Sat Jan 27, 2007 8:45 am

I wouldn't bother with sea routes yet. Get the territory boundaries right first and some names up there so we can talk about it properly.

Wisse · Post by **Wisse** » Sat Jan 27, 2007 9:08 am

ok i've merged some country's:

But what should i do with shanghai?, because thats a very important "state"
