Heh - 120/sq mi isn't terribly dense. Wall to wall people is closer to 50,000/sq mi (Macao), 20,000/sq mi (Singapore), or 17,000/sq mi (Hong Kong).Originally Posted by Mouse

120/sq mi is roughly the same as modern South Africa or Afghanistan.
As for the castles, that's primarily why I dropped the area.
The population in people per sq mi is interesting, but remember that most of the population is concentrated in small areas with large empty areas for cropland, forest, grazing, and "other" uses like desert. The traditional estimate of an acre to feed a person doesn't mean that there's one guy standing in each acre. It generally means that there are multiple acres with a village in the middle.
An image search in your favorite engine for "3D population density map" shows some appalling examples of the great hives of humanity and the flat spots in between that feed them.
You're quite right, Diastallia. I flipped out there and was thinking in population densities per hectare, which is the way they are represented sometimes in UK census stats. Really don't know why that happened, since I haven't had anything to do with census stats for at least 6 years now

BTW, "ai", not "ia".

I even have trouble spelling that sometimes! Depends how tired I am.

I've added you to my dictionary now, so we should be ok from here
Looking forward to this new realm of yours

Well, there's a preliminary map. The working map is scaled at 900 px/sq mi,and the land mass is *exactly* 7,425,000 pixels. Scaled down to 100px/sq mi, it loses a few pixels - 822,243, rather than exactly 825,000 - giving a land mass of 8222.43 sq mi rather than exactly 8250. I suspect/hope nobody will be terribly upset by it not being *exactly* perfectly 8250 sq mi...
I've got a touristy brochure or guide book map in mind, at least at the moment. Something along these lines:

And note Belize and Fiji are in the same size range. Puerto Rico is much smaller, but I have an affinity for that style.
