On that note: I'm going to try and start mapping everybody out in earnest. I'll be contacting each of you with posted Nation Sheets individually for this purpose.

A few things to note,

1. I'm making this map in Universe Simulator. That means that certain super-structures, such as the arms of the galaxy, are not a thing I am going to bother with. I mention this because I've seen some discussion concerning the arms and dark-space, so keep in mind that the map probably can't be used in order to resolve border issues - the only thing it's going to really display is the exact distances between all the miscellaneous objects that will be left around.

2. I have defined Sol as Galactic 'North.' This is completely arbitrary. As a reference point, this would be 27,500 light years at 0°

3. I am not responsible for Sagittarius A* snowballing and then devouring all your crap. Please be mindful of the galactic core.

4. Please note that the axial regions contain these:

These bubbles have such strong gamma ray concentrations that basically no form of matter can exist within these regions. Anything that enters them, regardless of how much armor or fancy shielding or high-faultin' tech it may have, will be nearly instantly reduced to a rapidly vaporizing pile of slop. This is, if anything, an understatement. Please do not tell me to put anything within these regions unless you have a very good reason for it.

5. Stuff moves, so exact distances will change over time. This is normal. Do not freak out.
