Here is my first crack at a map, Earth 400 years in the future. It's going to be part of my Vir Inter Astrum project and I am going to aim for a traditional atlas style look. Obviously a lot has changed, both in the topography and the countries.

This looks very interesting, I can't wait to see how you develop this. I just hope you fill us in with hows and whys the world looks like this in the future, it might also help on how you develop it.
Looks like a great start, looking forward to seeing this develop.

Well, I'm going to be starting from scratch... It's just too pastel-ey for me, plus I managed to screw up the projection and I cut of New Zealand.
Looking forward to seeing it develop and finding out more about the world. Heh. Mainly interested in knowing: what the heck happened to Africa?

I knew I missed something!
Anywho, here is the new style I'm going for
Bwahahahaha! I always knew that little chunk of upstate New York belonged to Canada! (Darn'd war of 1812...)Originally Posted by bbzwbbzw

Interesting changes, both political and geographical.
I take it that the sea level has risen abit?
Yeah, about 100 feet. Here is the last update before the final. Still have lots to add and tweak. The image is 70 percent of full size, so the names are a bit blurry.
I love the sound of an 'Asian Co-Prosperity League'. Lovely stuff!
I'm not sure what to add, other than: I like the colours; the subtle shading on mountain ranges and such looks great; but I wonder, is your spelling of "St. Peterberg" intentional? Just wondered in case it was an easy oversight.
