Anyway, I'm still working on the World level for this map right now (although after this post I'm going to start work on a more detailed region). The last version I posted was an Equirectangular or Cylindrical Equidistant (and technically Plate Carree) map projection. Today I'm posting an Equal Area Azimuthal projection developed by Karlheinz Wagner in 1949 (commonly called Wagner VII). This projection (or similar variations) are often used for today's world maps.

The border and background are not necessarily what I'm going with right now. I was just piecing together a basic look for now.
