    Post February Entry: League of Major Realms

    So, basically, this map depicts spheres of influence of Major League Baseball teams (re: CommonCensus - http://commoncensus.org/sports_map.php?sport=2) in the style of an old medieval map that is still using Latin because we're all learnèd and what not; let's call it circa 1654. The map features medieval reïnterpretations of each franchise's logo, even though some of them aren't exactly perfect - teams from each division share a common shield style as well.

    I'm liking it too! The overlay of colours gives the impression of stronger or weaker spheres of influence. I really like the effect and have never seen it before. Have some rep for originality!

    Hmmm...I'm torn: Do I route for my new home in "Red's Territory" or where I grew up that's under the influence of the hated "Yankees".

    This is coming out really cool!

    Hmmm...after closer examination it looks like I'm in a contested zone between Albvs & Ruber.
