Ah, see the difference here is I just wouldn't bother doing on map labels for cities at that scale- or rather I'd do it as numbered plus external key if it was needed.
If we're going for a new standard, can we nudge the font size up a bit please? I spend a lot of time squinting at tiny font on labels as is and even with that practice some of those are a strain for me.
How does the Kubasta look at about size 10?
Yeah looking at what you've got there, that's about the best choice you're going to get for that scale- and good job on not falling into the 'England/Wales/Scotland are first level divisions' trap which is literally only a thing since Devolution in the late 90s (and even then not actually the...
I think you've got the modern Ceremonial borders in the UK there? With a couple of missing borders in England by the looks of it.
The difficulty is that the County Boroughs were administratively entirely independent from the rest of the counties and they mostly just aren't going to show up on...
Autonomous communities.
Spain is a bit wierd in that technically it's a unitary state it's just every part of it is part of an autonomous community, but it's not strictly speaking federal as the powers each Community has are defined according to that Community rather than there being a blanket...
Eh, to be honest I was finding the grimdark dull and kinda-difficult to work with.
There's honestly more merit in looking at that setting without forcing the faux-Lovecraft elements in IMO.
It's honestly very moving, albeit I'm speaking as someone with no connection to the event myself (hence why we ended up going on the 12th and left the anniversary itself to those it was meaningful to).
I'll be honest, my gut instict with that design is it looks horrifically tacky and the museum...
Actually did a map of that once.
And then I realised that given the eventual demands for democracy, it's likely that at some point the Mayor of the Leonine City becomes the de facto Head of Government.
For what it's worth, I think this entire matter is just a bit ephemeral in the grand scheme of things. We're talking about 'how to show an unrecognised de facto independent state that is no longer de facto independent for the 5 months between losing that independence and completely disbanding.'...
For the record, I have a pretty beefy laptop but the stiched-together VT-BAM of Eurasia is enough to make that struggle with just loading the image over in that thread. Might be alright with just the Raj though.
