Map


A map of the world my story is going to be based on. Each number is a different country, and they are numbered in the order that I came up with them, which does not always indicate the importance of the place. These are names in progress, if the spelling annoys me, they may change at some point.

1. Callania
2. Aetyorthiri
3. Tygeriq
4. Setzenein
5. Arrozale
6. Koutuamaa
7. Silvetera
8. Genterare
9. Daiiroda
10. Maoniong
11. Walananang

Ooh, cool map. You can tell it's proper fantasy if it starts with a map.

By the way, when you label your posts, you separate the different ones with a comma - so, this one, you'd label "Jester, Map". Unless you wanted "Jester + Map" to be the only label, in which case, ignore me.

Ignore him anyway, he smells.

I like the names, they all seem to be from different dialects, which is cool. I get a mostly African and Nordic vibe from them, if that helps in the naming and any changing you may want to do.

Yes- there is supposed to be a different language for every country apart from Silvetera and Arrozale because they used to be the same country.

So far I've only used one line of foreign language, which is based on Tygeriqan. It might get tricky later on when I have some characters travelling around between countries.

I think my favourite name is Koutuamaa. I like the sound of it- its the sort of icy tundra country with hardly any people in it. But a very fun storyline.
