Hello.

One month passed since I posted the previous picture.
I can not believe. Where did the time go?

The previous thread is here.
I thought that the title should be simpler.

How to make this map (outline only) rich？ #Multiple_Island_arcs_World #多重島弧世界

I added the place name on the map.
And I've color-coded the area to make it easier to understand.

I was wondering which is better. Kanji or alphabet.
Thinking now, The letter I created was also one of the possibilities.

I chose kanji. However, it is not modern.

"紅凰島", "虎峰島", and "皇澄島" ... ....

How should I tell this embarrassment?
For example ... ...., "von Grimmelshausen"?
Ah! Subtle differences are very difficult. .

Anyway, for me, these names are "very old fashioned atmospheres".
If you go to the countryside in Japan or China, you may be able to see it.
You may not be able to see it.

Still, I wanted to do it! I am embarrassed, and very fun!

In addition to that, I put in a spice of "fantasy".
For example, the elements of earth, water, air, and fire.
Generally, "flames" are unusual for place names. In the area where I live.
But what about a world where magic is real?
I am sure that it will affect the name of the area.

Islands in this world have naming conventions.
Important islands can name "color" in their name.
The five islands closest to the center have privileges. So, the name is "the only color" and "great character".

On one outside, and the names of the big islands are "only color" and "nature and topography". "Red Clouds", "White Mountains" and so on.
On small islands, "nature and topography" and "nature and topography". "Waves of the forest" etc.
The names of the outer islands that are not aristocratic are "beast name" and "nature and topography". "Tiger Mountain", "Rock Head" and so on.

Perhaps, this is very hard to read, for you.
I am going to make it easy to read.

I thought while watching Wikipedia.

Prefectures of Japan - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefectures_of_Japan

"Prefecture Kanji
Aichi 愛知県
Akita 秋田県"

Is it easy to understand?

Thank you for viewing!
