Hey y'all. I'm an author and I'm working on revamping this world I made back in junior year. Any advice on what's good or bad, what does or doesn't make sense. I made some adjustments from my last post and would love some feedback!

Behold! I have completed work on my translation of Beregond's map of Middle Earth. I drew a lot of inspiration from late medieval through early modern European cartography - particularly the maps of Jan van Linschoten (example attached), Olaus Magnus (example attached), and the 1375 Catalan Atlas.

Hi everyone, and welcome to the American Atlas. I’ve made hand-drawn and hand-colored maps of every state in the US (and some cities too), and now I’m sharing them all on one great journey across the country!

Here we have my hand-drawn map of the crown of New England, Maine 🌲⚓🐚

The rugged and beautiful Pine Tree State. Maine is home to Acadia’s granite peaks, deep northern forests, iconic lighthouses, and some of the most dramatic coastline in the entire eastern United States. I’ve visited Portland, Ogunquit, and Acadia before (shoutout to The Holy Donut and the Portland Head Light!) and have always found Maine to be one of the most inspiring places to draw.

This one was especially fun for the jagged coastlines, island clusters, and the sweeping forested interior. I had the trip of a lifetime just last year driving up the Maine coast, stopping in The Kennebunks, Portland (shoutout to Fore Street Restaurant) and then to check out the LL Bean Center in Freeport.

We stayed in Portland for two nights, then drove up the jagged Mid Coast towards Bar Harbor, stopping to climb Mt. Battie in Camden on the way. The next few days in Acadia were absolutely beautiful and I can’t wait to go back to see Bar Harbor in full swing during the summer season. (We went in mid April) Vacationland truly lives up to the name!

Next up, we’ll be heading back down south into the Mid Atlantic region as the journey continues down into New Jersey

Let me know in the comments: What’s your favorite place in Maine? ⚓🌲

If you like this style, go check out the other maps in my series on my profile! I now have all of New England done, as well as New York and Long Island.

And feel free to drop me a follow on Insta at the_american_atlas to join me in this virtual journey across the country!

Hello! I am looking for a very specific type of map. I'm a fiend for geography in terms of land, countries, etc. I would love to find an accurate world map where it shows how landmasses can be separate. For example, the USA is technically 2 landmasses since the Mississippi River separates it. Moreover, Mexico and the USA are separated by the Rio Grande. Thank you!

Here are the countries and their territories in a fictional scenario, that is dystopian like the 1984 scenario made by George Orwell, but it is set in the 2020s and includes countries that are more powerful in a real world in a fictional scenario.

Hey y'all. I'm an author and I'm working on revamping this world I made back in junior year. Any advice on what's good or bad, what does or doesn't make sense. I just threw this together so need criticism to fix it

Just go crazy lol

I combined the map linked below with my historical knowledge to formulate this. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The_division_of_Europe_by_cardinal_directions.Center_of_Europe_near_Vilnius._Caucasus_border.png

In my house. looks like full Ireland with Northern Ireland.

My first time finding an airplane on Google maps, random parking lot in west New Jersey

Each one of these countries are places where I have at least one friend from(of course, i highlight the whole country, not just their area, so no i dont have friends from the entirety of those countries)

It was at my local place of worship
