That's beautiful - does Nouvelle Bretagne still control its colonies or have they broken away?

While I like the concept I find the actual geographic changes bizarre as you have shown some areas correctly while others have weird unrealistic overboard land losses.
The below is what the world would look like if there was a 70 Meter sea level rise (note that 65 meters is the absolute maximum possible);
^D-398 industrialisation map. Light is sort of industrialised, dark is heavily industrialised.
I've probably gone overboard then A lot of maps online assume an 80-100m rise; perhaps the science has since moved on.
Well Paris and Belgium were industrialising, and loads of rail lines were built connecting the two. With all that infrastructure Picardy began to industrialise as well. Meanwhile Lorraine's resources mostly got exported towards either the North where the factories were already going up. That and worries about a possible German unification leading to an invasion of Lorraine at some point the French wanted to keep from developing too much industry in the border regions. (That and I cut off the 'moderately industrialised colour a little too far south for Lorraine, it's somewhat industrialised, but not at the level of the North.)How is rural Picardy industrialised, but not coal and steel-producing Lorraine?
Dug up an old WIP and worked on it a bit. Will probably have more detail later, I really should be doing other things.
yup.Post apocalyptic, by any chance?
It's somewhere in the last thread. Can't upload now because it's already taken my around 5 minutes to post this. When my internet stops trowing a fit I will.Would you happen to have a blank version of the elevation basemap you're using?

I don't recall there being deserts in Mordor, just devastation. (And Tolkien seems unaware that volcanic soils are quite fertile. Maybe it's just that Mordor has evil volcanoes. )
I think it was just that Sauron kept the volcano active. Active volcanoes aren't good for farming. If I remember correctly there were times when he wasn't around and the volcano calmed down allowing people to start moving in (though turning rock to soil takes a long time).I don't recall there being deserts in Mordor, just devastation.

Well, here's the hopefully completed version. Let me know what y'all think.
