    Default Erandas (Djaïa regional map)

    Hello fellow guilders !
    Here is a personnal work on mapping Djaïa.
    Erandas is a regional map of Djaia. This part of the world is dominated by the ancient Elven nations of Ankdas and An'Ankdas, two federal republics of City-States. This version is focused on birth and the rise of the human nations with the decline of the Sankdomien empire. Ekanarn is a warrior Kingdom consisting of many Lordships in permanent conflict. Misgarn brings together three territories around three cities Minarn, Riarn and Kelter. These are the hydraulic achievements of this Kingdom which allowed to connect the Sankdas sea to the sea of the Ank. Avoiding the Kara Sea, den of pirates, and the sea of Lasha, place of permanent maritime peril, Misgarn ensured a commercial wealth in linking the areas of Sankdom imperial influence and the nations elves.

    This work was done under procreate with an Adonit Jot Touch stylus and an iPad. The labels have been added with inkscape.
    I hope you'll enjoy it.
    Many thanks to all (Ilanthar, Snodsy, J.Edwards, ChickPea, Lingon, Schwarzkreuz, SteffenBrand, Arsheesh, Apeiron, _witchborn, Jshoer, Klaus van der Kroft, Gudnyt, and the Guild community) for the help and the support you provide me in the wip thread.

    Great work Warlin! Some labels aren't easily legible and could have used some outline or outer glow to make them more legible though. (Also you seem to have some temporary black circles on the insets overlapping the definitive frame on the bottom of the map )

    You did a great job on this Warlin.
    It was a pleasure to watch this one come together.
    I like your use of different colors for the text, though I do agree that some are harder to read, as Max said.
    That said, splendid work.

    Thanks for your feedback Max. I must improve my labellings . For the circles overlapping, i don't know if i can edit the map ? I think i can clean that mistake.
