Christian’s Hule, 150 AC

Of the four maps Christian posted to kick off his Hule project on the Mystara Mailing List, only one was a hex map; the other three were historical maps showing the extent of the Hulean Empire at various stages of its history.

This last map of the three brings Hule up to the first millennium AC, 850 years before the present day. It’s easy to see how much the empire has expanded over the past thousand or so years, absorbing neighbouring realms.

Christian’s historical map series followed in the footsteps of Geoff Gander and James Mishler, both of whom drew historical maps in the early days of Mystara fan mapping (for example, Lhomarr 7500 BC and Ancient Nithia). And of course it was far from the last such map, as many more of this sort have been made since.

Fan-made Map by Christian Constantin (May 1999)

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.
