Thanks for the comments guys.
I uploaded some history to the wiki, plz let me know if it steps on any toes. I am not very good at wiki so I don't know if I did it right.
Let me know.
Looks great Bohunk. Completely cool and different style which just hints at isometric but isn't if you know what I mean. I'll have a look at the stuff on the wiki but I'm sure the editing types will get there before me.
Thanks for great work.

Looks nice! I like the style, except the river, which look like they bulge out (the water itself, not the banks).

Updated map. I think its done unless I think of something else in the history I am currently working on.
So I was making a detail B&W of this area when it struck me that Thaydor is sitting on the artic circle, (at least close to what would be the artic circle if this was earth). So I was wondering about a couple of things:
1. The river that flows north out of the map was FT generated, would that freeze and if it would, for how long?
2. How populated would the valley above the mountains be, and judging by how many small kingdoms or clan areas I currently have, and more to come in the west, would or could the area just south of the artic sustain that many people, I am guessing close to one million? Not really worried about the dwarves who I guess would be use to cold living in or under the mountains.
3. Although this is the valley between both sets of mountains, I imagine that its altitude is still high, would that be correct or can we believe that it is close to sea level?
Although it is a fantasy world, I would like this to be as realistic as possible, and if the area is too bleak to carry at least one million humans maybe an alturnative can be found that would give this area some population besides the claw-people(monsters) I have in the extreme north. i know, I know, realistic and claw-people dont go hand in hand but....
