    Your alternate America is one of my favourites, so I am very interested how this will turn out. You are on a good way.

    Actually it's a typo, but...hm, maybe the Lando dialect of Noramerikan English is different from the Texarado version. I think it is possible over a long time to change for a language in this way.

    I know what you mean, Djekspek. I used a clean path that matched the borders exactly and than distorted it to give the border an unclean, hand drawn look, to remove the impression of a 'too' exact impression.

    Well, I'm thinking about giving some seals or stamps on the map, but I won't overcrowd the map.

    I think it would be better to make the border a bit more in the sea to avoid this... don't know in english "die Grenze im Meerbereich sieht sehr unnatürlich aus. Vor allem, daß sie manchmal auf das Festland überlappt. Villt. wäre es auch möglich die Grenzlinie im Meerbereich genau an der Küste abzuschneiden. Dann wäre sie allerdings an manchen Stellen nicht gleich breit."

    Nice map and another with good likeness to the reference.

    Map

    OK, I changed the border line to follow the coast lines more exactly.

    Map

    I placed the original map under the actual Lando map.
