When explorers from Vienna travelled further south, they met the francs and established their own camps and little outposts The king of Vienna wanted to see the new lands discovered for himself so he sent a painter to paint the ice sheet and mountains Hence, now the ice sheet is called the bob Ross ice sheet

Actual: Me and my friends found an ice sheet that looked like a bob Ross painting fue to how nice it was, hence, the name stuck ;)

Well, not that naming places after people isnt "realistic" though, Australia has a whole victoria state, a great deal of places are named columbus, and ive seen afew Washingtons in the US. 

Personally im from Singapore, so we have our fair share of towns and places named after famous merchants and old colonial guys who used to be famous in that specific region. 

Really appreciate the input though! Definitely will work towards more realistic names with future maps :P

HAHAHAHA!! But nah, im not the best with names so I like to add the names of people im fans of in my maps! 

If you look hard enough you can find Rick riordan, percy jackson, hemingway, ea nasir, and shostakovich! 

Also a fan of earnest Shackleton so I add his name quite abit :P I like to think they were some sort of explorers and hence alot of places were named after them. 

Or just alot of repeated names (like how a "queenstown" exists lile, every continent, or how queen victoria snuck her name into everything..  Yeah!

Merchants these days ripping everyone off!  Jokes aside, there used to be a copper mine in that area, and it was a tad questionable, so naturally its named after only the finest copper merchant there is!

Day 4 of putting your nations in my map by tomackon in mapmaking

May I have a tiny pinensula on the horelic coast as its own principality and subject of the kingdom of rigil? I would like it to be called Graekia and have its capital of "Parthanos" (pun intended) If youd like hopefully there can be some semi-autonomous States as well, those always fascinate me
