Oldworld.mp is an extra-large (80x125) map of Europe & western Asia.
The civilizations that lie outside this area begin the game at the 
following locations: the Americans at Amsterdam; the Chinese at 
Istanbul (Constantinople); the Japanese at Baghdad; the Sioux at 
Stockholm; the Zulus at Algiers (headquarters of the Barbary Corsairs);
the Aztecs at Lisbon; and the Indians at Baku.  Also note that the
Egyptians begin at the site of Cairo (or Memphis), and the
Mongols at Samarkand (which served as their capital under Tamerlane).

This map is intended to be played as a flat world.  When you 
begin the game, choose the "Customize Rules" option and then select
"Flat World".  I saved it as a flat world in the map editor, but don't
ask me why you are even given that option: all worlds are round by
default.  I don't recommend you play it as a round world, but it's 
your life.
