Please note: I am not a climatologist. I read up on wikipedia and looked RL winds, what do you guys think? I am only pleased with the western sea's winds. The northeast's climate (around the little sea) also displease me.

Tada, mountains.. wait, they look like colors, though! No! They are mountains. My initial reaction was "this is awesomelol" but looking at it now I find it difficult to distinguish between heights.. Perhaps darkening the layers, and removing the climate would help? Suggestions, with which I will experiment and then show you guys?
My initial thoughts:
Add the mountain/hills layer underneath/on top of the grey contours.
The above, without climate.
Climate:
Purple: Sub-arctic or Mountain. In all cases very rainy.
Green: Mediterannean (Cool winters, hot summers, heavy rainfall)
Dark Green (F7): Tropical/Sub Tropical (warm autumns, hot hot summers, seasonal rains)
Darkest Green: Tropical (warm autumns, hot hot summer, seasonal rains)
Tan: Continental (somewhat-seasonal rains, cold winters, hot summers)
Darker Tan: Arid Continental (southern half of the southern continent) Above, but drier.
Brown (B8): Semi-Arid/Arid (Hot summers, cold winters, little seasonal rains)
Cyan: Arctic/Tundra (deathly winters, cool summers, seasonal severe blizzards, semi-seasonal rains, seasonal floods)

10 points - add Barbaric Races [species. sentient. go nuts.]
With each addition, I'd like you to write a little flavor for your civilization,
posted with your orders. How is it's army run? What is it's calendar like? What are some names for countries that might develop, leaders? What are internal struggles it deals with as we progress, what delicious coups have happened, what governments formed? Also, as you add religion, I'd like you to write on these things as well.
Warning: If you do not, I will make up whatever I want for you, and it will be badly written and you will not like it and I will throw pencils at you like my music director. That civilization with the most Flavor will be given a reward at the end of this phase AND the beginning of the next. Note: Please actually post it -with- your additions.
