Brun (1986)
1986 saw two main additions to the continental map: the Wendar & Denagoth region, and the Sylvan Realm.
As can be clearly seen, Wendar and Denagoth’s mountains were completely at odds with those on the continental map. I have not revised these, although I may at some point in the future; in fact, thus far I have resisted changing any of the mountains on this map, as they were always rather generalised to begin with. The coastline of Heldann has been updated, though, to match X11’s coast reconciled with CM1’s Norwold.
The Sylvan Realm was not given an exact location in CM7 — just a general recommendation to place it in the northwestern corner of the continent. There isn’t a spot on the coastline that matches CM7’s map, unfortunately, so for now I have given it a general placement without incorporating it completely. In any case it’s a rather tiny area.
Chronological Map (February 2022)
This map is part of the Mystara 1986 series of chronological maps. It is an updated map, incorporating all available sources and made internally consistent with other maps in its series. But it only uses sources published in or before 1986.
For more information, see Appendix C: Cartographic Chronology.

- Nations — The Sylvan Realm from CM7 does not have a precise official location, just a general recommendation of placing it in the northwestern corner of Brun. Consequently, I have placed it only roughly for now, without adjusting coastlines to properly fit it in.
