My Secret Project:)

[St Leo]

I wasn't going to reveal this until I was further along, but what the Tartarus. Guess what the map is of (considering the current education standards...). Any and all geographical suggestions will be appreciated.

P.S. Mountains have been replaced with Coniferous Forest.

Seems people just want to be the North Star these days.

Hmmmmmm.....due to my great educational value to this forum, I would venture as far as to say that it is a map of buttocks

[WarVoid]

Why does Colonization pop into my head when I see that map...

[Mao]

Because you're an idiot! Freak!

One question- what are the little islands in the mid Atlantic? The only thing I can think of is Bermuda, which is a lot further west, south of Newfoundland.

The islands seem to me to be the Azores (sp?).

Also, as a very uncreative and slow-minded person I had to think "Colonization" when I first saw the map.

[Stefan Härtel]

Era of Napoleon Bonaparte?
Or plain colonization?
(I wonder why noone has mentioned WW2 yet... even the "secret project" by Polaris was thought by someone to be WW2)

If it was WWII, it'd be really one-sided. The US would be huge while Germany, USSR, and Japan are either not even represented or very small.

My vote is for the Age of Piracy.

[Paul Hanson]

Definitely something to do with the era of colonization. The fact that Europe is small while the rest of the world is ripe for expansion would certainly indicate that.

[Michael Dnes]

Just as a warning about the nile: The ancient Egyptians had real trouble with the cataracts (I hope I spelt that right), sets of unnavigable rapids. This would make it impossible to sail from Alexandria to Khartoum. There's also the matter of Niagra Falls: it appears you can sail straight down the St Lawrence to the great lakes.

[William Keenan]

Every day ships sail into and out of the great lakes via the St Lawrence. However, as far as I know, a ship has never entered the great lakes via the Mississippi River.

Any and all geographical suggestions will be appreciated.

I think I need to dither the Tundra/Forest boundary.

Why does Colonization pop into my head when I see that map...

Because that is the most logical guess.

The ancient Egyptians had real trouble with the cataracts (I hope I spelt that right), sets of unnavigable rapids.

I am sure Arabs can drag ships overland or something.

However, as far as I know, a ship has never entered the great lakes via the Mississippi River.

If you look closer, one would have to build a city there for that to happen.

Ah, yes. I see that I was mistaken. A thousand pardons.
