The storyline seems a bit cheesy, but that's a beautiful map of the South Atlantic. :)

1:00 am and I wanted it finished.
That was the only thing I could think up at that early of a time.
Please forgive for the cheesy storyline.

Perhaps you could use the map for a scenario about the portuguese and spanish colonial empires... I guess the sotryline would make more sense...Great map anyway...

Basically, Brazil and Angola(in Africa) belonged to the portuguese, while the rest of Latin America belonged to the spanish. The rest of Africa was mainly unexplored. In the North of South America, there were british, french and dutch colonys. All of this colonys had borthers with Brazil, and there was a lot of tension. Brazil invaded French Guiana in the end of the 18th century.
There was also a lot of tension on the borthers of Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay. This tensions led to the Paraguay War, wich killed more then 5 million people, the bloodiest ever fought in all Americas. This war was on the 19th century, and all of this countrys were already independent.

You went way to far! I think that in "La guerra de la triple alianza" (Triple alliance war) the casualties were something like this:

1 million of paraguay's citizens
25000-30000 from Argentina
10000-15000 from Uruguay
50000 from Brazil

I don't remember, but in that time Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay all together they were less than 3 millions.

Anyway, that war is a nice idea for an scenario.

I dont know... Im sure much more then 1 million paraguayans were killed... actually, almost 80% of Paraguays adult male population was killed.
And at least 100.000 brazilians were killed... Im not sure abou Argentinas numbers....

Argentina also had a war against Brazil when they invaded Uruguay (Uruguay in those times was a province of the argentinean confederacy), the war ended with British mediation, and they established Uruguay as an indepedent country.

Triple Alliance War would be nice to see. Paraguay lost like 1/3 or 2/3 of its population (many killed) and a large expanse of territory. Too bad more information isn't readily availiable through the internet.

Oh well, I got mine off ebay, as its no longer in production
Sad, very sad to see one great game (civ3) get such a glorious community, while another (SMAC) rots in the cellar.

I miss those psycho worms :( But I reckon Civ3 has better graphics. Anyway, cool map but doesn't Argentina have a big desert in it or is it artistic liscense for another planet?

I really don't know about tha actual Geography of South America.
The program that I used the colors of the original pic and matched them up to nearest color with 16 specific colors that comes with the program. Those 16 specific colors represent specific Terrain in Civ3.

Hmm... Well Argentina doesn't have a big desert, but it does have a large area of plains in the mid-south area.

But Chile does have a really dry desert in its center.

This is another South America.
It is not to look like the original except the land mass.
