Altered Maps 2: Uber-Yugoslavia FTW

[Bill3000]

Because Lithuania was at that time a sparsely populated forest with less then around 100,000 people in total? compared to our around 10-15 Million people?

Pah, the Lithuanian nobility were essentially Ruthenian anyway, and they were hardly irreverent.

We must coin a new term... it's probably been said before, but, "Polandjacking." If Poland is mentioned in any historical context, it will somehow take over the thread, be it through the Central/Eastern Europe debate, or the "Poland once controlled ___" argument. No offense to theLastOne or any other resident Poles, of course.

DANG! O.O That's a mutated Europe. Thank the Reds for Chernobyl.

Seriously, could that land possibly have a worse reputation?

 

[Mirc]

To be honest with you, I don't think it could!


I like how you can see the British Isles as hills. Also, I approve of the big "MIRKWOOD" text at the north (RL Finland)! Also, interesting how Helm's Deep is in France, Isengard is in Germany/Denmark, and you can even see the Danube across RL Hungary (although it goes in the wrong direction afterwards ).


Edit: So apparently I've been to Mount Doom when I visited the Bihor mountains in Romania!
So here's how Mount Doom looks like, in real life:

Quite a change of landscape after the big guy was defeated!

Nice map!

Ha, I knew it! I always knew that I actually live in Isengard !

Is Moria on the right spot, though? Seems slightly displaced to me. I think they meant something else, but I forgot the name.

This map makes me think... is it possible that dear Tolkien actually intended these connections? *conspiracy*

edit: and here is proof! Not far away from my home is the very Tower of Isengard - this is what it looks like now:
