Apolytonian Geographic Society - Requests & Info

Aro · October 13, 2002, 17:10

We are now a Republic, and the new name of this Society is "Apolytonian Geographic Society"

. If you need a map, or some information about maps, post here.

Btw, two new maps in my site, http://www.arociv.com/Maps.html : World Map 580 AD and the Empire Map, 580 AD.
Our Empire is big...
Here, a thumbnail:

Quite nice.

BTW-- isn't it about time you updated your avatar? (It's quite outdated-- no Persian territory, Uber Isle largely unexplored, etc.)

Aro · October 13, 2002, 17:36

Thanks, Vlad... Is done!

Nimitz · October 13, 2002, 18:37

How about a map with our empire divided into it provences?

i'd like to see the entire continent of Abananaba divided up into all the nations territory, with an overlay of black lines showing all existing provinces.

that way i can see who we have to destroy

I'm not sure if this question has been asked yet, and am even more not sure if it's been answered, but have we named our surrounding oceans?
There seem to be four oceans surrounding our continent; one to the north-east, another one south-east of Uber Isle, one to the north-west near the Greeks, and another one all the way past the Romans in the west.
If these large bodies of water have yet to have names, then I suggest we get on that; it'll become very useful in the future once we are an ocean-faring race, as well as when referencing to locations through order threads...

When I finish the map of provinces, will be easy make this one.

I hope I can finish this tomorrow by night.

Aro · October 13, 2002, 20:41

Meshelic, I fully agree with you.

Mr. Orange · October 13, 2002, 22:44

So cool... and from that view we look to own 1/4 of the world's land. We rule!

Wasn't GePap trying to get an organization together to poll and name our features? "The Apolytonian Toponymy Society"?

Meshelic · October 13, 2002, 23:14

I believe he was but don't know if that was to include bodies of water...

Vlad Antlerkov · October 18, 2002, 20:10

*bump*

Can someone ask OPD to top an AGS thread or something? (These don't seem to be listed in the Directory...)

Meshelic · October 18, 2002, 20:31

Who should set ocean boundaries and name them? I tried in a seperate thread but nobody really paid any attention.

E_T · October 18, 2002, 22:25

I'd like to see some time frame comparisons in the ongoing exploration process, Ours & the other Civs.

In other words, In 640 AD we had bought maps. We also have gotten some recently so their should be a difference between the two (I know that Rome has two galleys out exploring).

Thanks

"Exploration compairisons"

Gee, that sounds like a lot of work for some poor person...

Sean · October 19, 2002, 00:40

And another excellent map, Aro, BTW.

Sean.

Apocalypse · October 19, 2002, 02:22

I request a map that can easily be used for a desktop background, preferably in 1024X768.

Aro · October 19, 2002, 06:48

I have to travel right now, but I come back tomorrow (Sunday). I'll be without a connection and as soon I return, I'll take the map work again.

nz_upy · October 19, 2002, 19:49

Aro I suggest that you take on a Deputy to handle this increased workload.

DAVOUT · October 19, 2002, 20:14

Aro made several attempt to hire deputies, but he allocates them such a workload that they left after a few days !

pikesfan · October 19, 2002, 22:42

What I would like to see is a simple, low-bandwidth political map that shows the boundaries and the cities for anyone (like me) who has a slow connection, something like the ones made with with paint you used to see in the Stories forum.

Vlad Antlerkov · October 21, 2002, 20:54

*bump*

I second Pikesfan's suggestion. Not everyone here has cable.

Pikesfan, I'll make the maps in two sizes from now on (I mean, as soon we finish the elections here in Brazil, I'm very involved in the campaign; one week more). I promise!

You're right, Davout. It’s very difficult to find good slaves nowadays…

Vlad, as I said before, I'll come back to map work after this Sunday, when the elections here in Brazil will be finished. I'm really involved in this process, and I'm very short of time. My apologizes to all for the lack of maps in this period.

DAVOUT · October 25, 2002, 13:16

There are rumors that you have been bribed by the French to not provide us with your wonderful maps as long as the second French Campaign has not been cancelled.
