LoZompatore’s Known World 3000-2500 BC
In November 2006, Michele posted a series of ten maps to the Italian Mystara Message Board. The sequence told the physical history of the Known World over the past four thousand years. He explained to me as follows:
It is a set of maps aimed at showing all major terrain changes in the Known World area since the Great Rain of Fire. Grey shading represents ice/frozen lands while green shading represents woods/forests.
This was the first map in the sequence, showing the state of the area immediately after the Great Rain of Fire. As the map shows, the area was slowly emerging from beneath an ice cap.
Fan-made Map by Michele Carpita (November 2006)
This is an original map created by one of Mystara’s excellent fan cartographers. For more information on the cartographer, including a gallery of all their maps, see also Appendix M: Mappers of Mystara.
