Thibault’s Broken Lands, 8 miles per hex
The smallest nation of the Known World — and not even really a single nation, at that. Thibault had tackled it previously as part of larger maps, including his Glantri map from the same period, but this was his first version covering just the immediate region. Of course, it’s basically just a cropped version of that map. As with Thibault’s other Known World maps, he posted the original in August 2000, then a revised version with a black hex grid in September the following year. Both versions are presented below.
There is an error northeast of Corunglain, where the border should follow a missing row of hills around the broken lands. Thibault corrected this in his Darokin v1 map, but the error crept back in with later Ethengar maps. As far as I know, he never released a corrected Broken Lands only map.

The following lists are from the Let’s Map Mystara project. Additions are new features, introduced in this map; Revisions are changes to previously-introduced features; Hex Art & Fonts track design elements; and finally Textual Additions are potential features found in the related text. In most cases, the Atlas adopts these textual additions into updated and chronological maps.
