This is your world, it is weird and grey

You somehow become green and wonder what happens when you move off the edge of the world while also ageing 1 turn and turning yellow. (From green hex, you can move to any yellow hex)

You also wonder how this would be displayed to some all-time-powerful-god-national spirit-thing that is somehow in control of your people for over 6000 years.

Basically I thought this would be a more interesting world wrap type than the standard "rectangle". There are less polar regions and more tiles around the equator (higher % of playable tiles). The trick is that the tiles displayed off screen shift around based on which part of the world the human player is looking at. When you stop looking at the edge of the map, the off-screen tiles there "reset".

Or alternatively there is always an ocean there that ships are teleported around to the other side of the map.
 
I've long thought we should have two maps, centered on the poles, meeting at the equator.
