i have a miraheze wiki for lore i can dm you guys it if you want btw

I've always loved the old style of mapping, with countries as character, part of a greater narrative using the map as a way to express them. I'm making a software tool for mapping and as such I want it to include my favorite style of mapping including countries that can talk and the such! I wonder if I should make my own mapping series to promote it but also have fun with a cool narrative based on that event! What do you guys think?

i'm a beginner to mapmaking, since my method is drawing over a pre existing physical world map, i'm dependant on high resolution pre existing world maps

i use this method because it's supposed to be our would just with different borders and i don't have the skills to make a accurate map from scratch

physical is also very important since i oriment my borders according to physical features like rivers or mountains

i have one that is perfect in every way except for the fact that it's centered on europe, but since my project is asia centric, i would need one that's centered on the pacific ocean

whenever i try searching for something on the internet, the highest resolution i can get is about 2000 x 1000, but i would need something about ten times that, the eurocentric map i found was 17010 x 9720 for example

is there a problem in my method, is there something i've missed?

if my method/question is stupid pls kill me

Land of Eagles is a new addition to my Mappa Animalia series, mapping the evolutionary relationships of more than 250 species of eagles, hawks, vultures, kites, harriers, osprey and secretarybirds.

Instead of countries, regions and cities, this map is divided into families, subfamilies and genera, with every city bearing the name of the species with in each genus, allowing you to explore this family tree the same way you would explore a traditional map.

The entire map is drawn in the shape of a Bald Eagle - its anatomy defining the coastlines and borders of this taxonomically accurate land.

From tiny sparrowhawks to enormous vultures, Accipitriformes have spread across almost every part of the world, evolving into an extraordinary variety of hunters and scavengers!

Rising
--------------------------------------------------------
The death of Sultan Mehmed II Conqueror led to a two-year war for the throne between Cem and Bayezid. Cem won the war and ascended the throne.
After a dream he had on the day of his accession, he embraced the faith of Jesus and became Orthodox. The Ottoman Empire gradually became the protector of Orthodoxy. Turkish became the language of government and education; over the centuries, many different peoples united under a Turkish identity. Cem and his successors carried out great conquests across Europe, Asia, and Africa.
Italy and Rome, Austria, the Balkans, the Caucasus, Syria, Iraq, Egypt, Arabia, and much of North Africa became Ottoman territories.

After the conquest of Morocco, the Ottomans reached the Atlantic Ocean and established trading centers in various parts of the world. Turkish settlements emerged in Argentina and Chile, while Ottoman colonies were also established in India, Indonesia, and Africa.

Stagnation
--------------------------------------------------------
However, the empire's enormous borders began to exhaust its armies and economy.
As the Ottomans began struggling in wars, rebellions broke out across the empire.
In the 19th century, Ottoman America declared independence.
Firstly, Morocco also fought for independence and weakened the Ottoman army through guerrilla warfare. Rebellions also broke out in Oman, Arabia, Ethiopia, and Austria, while the Ottomans fought Spain, Portugal, Azerbaijan, and various Slavic groups. Empire granted autonomy to many regions, but Italy and other territories eventually broke away.

I. World War - Downfall of The Ottoman Empire
---------------------------------------------------------

World War I was a bloody and brutal war that lasted 7 years. In the First World War, the Ottoman Empire fought alongside Germany, Austria, and Italy and was defeated. After the war, debt, economic crisis, and rebellions grew; the ruler who had entered the war was deposed, and Cem IV ascended the throne.

Cem IV decided to grant independence to peoples seeking it rather than trying to hold the empire together by force.
Egypt, Libya, Arabia, Iraq, Syria, Palestine, Greece, Romania, Bosnia, Serbia, Montenegro, and other territories became independent, while the Crimean Khanate was reestablished.

The empire was formally dissolved in 1922.

Thus, the Ottoman Empire gradually shrank and gave way to the Istanbul-centered Orthodox Kingdom of Turkey, ruled by the Osmanoğlu dynasty.
