    The main problem is that it looks (from the shape of the continents) like a Hobo-Dyer or maybe a Gall-Peters, but the Lat/long lines look like they were lifted from an equirectangular. of course, it could still be accurate, but the continents would be a bit extremely shaped. for a pod summary of maps, see this interesting chart.

    Could you provide a description of the tech levels and maybe some major historical events in this world?
    This cavern is below all, and is the foe of all. It is hatred, without exception. This cavern knows no philosophers; its dagger has never cut a pen. Its blackness has no connection with the sublime blackness of the inkstand. Never have the fingers of night which contract beneath this stifling ceiling, turned the leaves of a book nor unfolded a newspaper.

    I might redo both of these maps in a better projection. FTPro doesn't do Winkel Tripel though does it? Any suggestions?

    Since you're starting from Equidistant Cylindrical, NASA's G.Projector tool would work. http://www.giss.nasa.gov/tools/gprojector/
