Introducing Westramine

bluemoose

231 Views

I received a comment A while back asking where Sunderland was set....

So, after a bit of work, I present, a Map of Westramine, the Nation in which Sunderland is located. Sunderland Is the County Head of Northumberland County. Gloucester, Northampton, Castledon and York are the other county heads of their respective counties. EXETER is the National Capital, home to Parliament and government offices. I hope to eventually build Exeter on a custom map, but that is a long way down the line.

The Key:

Red: Major/Included Cities and metropolitan areas

Yellow: County titles and Borders

Green: A-Roads

Dark Blue: Motorways (Major Motorways are signified as {M+an Even 10 multiple for E/W routes} or {M+an Odd 10 multiple for N/S routes}. Secondary Motorways are spurs or connectors signified by the parents first digit with an even second digit for E/W spurs and an odd second digit for N/S spurs)

Light Blue: Parkways (Minor, car-only motorways, usually signified by a single letter other than A or M, or by a three digit M###)

M-1 is the Nations first large-scale Motorway, and the only fully tolled road. It acts as a thruway, so speeds are not strongly regulated, and interchanges are rare. M-1 Interchange Numbers are shown on the Map. Most of the other major Motorways (aside from M-90) radiate from Exeter and its Metro Area. (spurs of M-1 have numbering as if M-1 was really M-10)

The Is. of Pembroke is a sovereign dependency of the Nation of Westramine, and there is a movement for Melancholia to become a sovereign dependency as well.


I do hope to have actual game pictures for you guys next time!

So, pretty much a bit distorted map of England with some of the cities moved around? :P

Just kidding. The map looks really great. ;)

Thanks for the ... amusing ... feedback guys!!

It is indeed modelled after the Isle of Great Britain, but I did start from scratch! And of course you'll notice that the land-side of the island is the Northeast rather than the south. Also, I've added barrier islands in the east for beaches and such, and It is obviously a much smaller island than Great Britain.

Thanks for commenting!
