Technically, anything from 'the real world' doesn't exist in this one, so the [i]designations[/i] U.S., Germany, and Asia wouldn't exist, but there could certainly be countries/continents that share cultural similarities. I'll work on the map a bit more today. However, I think I will skip countries and just go with continents, and then 'regions' within the continent. As it is now, all the markers on the map, except Nautilus, are part of the same continent, but not in the same region. But, yeah, I'll dust off my photoshop 'skills' and clear this up today/tomorrow. Glad to hear it and looking forward to it, Insi.
