    Thanks for the replies.

    As is, that's the whole world (40,000 km at the equator). This works out to approx 20 km/pixel.

    I've been writing the story of this world for nearly two years now, I think. I've been building it both for my own stories and for an RPG setting. I have a rough map of the early migration routes but I'm not sure how well it works. I may redo it.

    A simple explanation:

    Krodanoi are the first intelligent people, plains-dwelling felines that hunted megafauna.
    Syldanar are magically transfigured Krodanos exiles.
    Myrdanar divided from the Syldanar in a civil war.
    Rhuz are cave-dwelling hominids with a distinct evolutionary origin. Khazan and Rhayud are their two major nations.
    Humans are the product of a magical genetic engineering project directed by the gods.

    You might wonder why humans are an engineered species. The gods were human on their original world. That world was destroyed, and when they came to this one they found no humans. A few millenia of influence later, a few scientifically-minded gods managed to recreate themselves, or at least an apparent semblance of the original humans.
