What could this month's feature map be about, considering it samples landscape paintings such as this?

@theatlaspro if you want to jump into fiction mode a bit. This is heavy nerdage worldbuilding.

@Haematinon I love the back/semi-torso armour of the slinger. The helmet designs are also beautiful.

@dascalufloriin Yea, so there's tons of things off/wrong about this map/infographic because it's fiction! It has impossibly plausible lore, but the point of it is to be recognizable to our contemporary times while also surfacing marginalized culture that we don't see in normal political maps.

@Omniglossia Is it...Korean?

[Telamon Tabulicus @atlasaltera]

@pampatype Yea! As this is a fictional project, I had a little fun in dabbling in some minor alt-geo, mostly for strategic lore reasons.

@glyphs_fi @EAlphabets Do let me know which ones you think are missing!

[Telamon Tabulicus @atlasaltera]

@glyphs_fi Most of the scripts are from Google Noto btw. A lot are unoptimized but gotta still respect the idealistic script creators around the world attempting to do cultural revitalization in their own way (regardless of how hopeless it may seem). This project is not prescriptive, btw.
