>>25354293I'd like to visit Santorini. They did make it a setting for a fantasy board game which is pretty fun
>>25354262North America had some of the most interesting geography IMO>Multitudes of different climates & terrains>Some of the most fertile land on earth>Navigable rivers that spread almost throughout the entire continent>Different kinds of mountain ranges that make for beautiful landscapes and interesting cultures>Tons of land allowing for bigger empires
The lands around the Aral Sea and Amu Dayria and Syr Dayria. Honestly most of Eurasia, especially Hungary too
Perfect place for a nomadic kingdom
>>25354309It's completely swamped with tourists and social media influences, don't bother
>>25354384Heard that Venice has implemented a daily fee system for anybody to go into the city, including native Italians.
>>25354465That's pretty sad
>>25354262I know this is a gigashitpost, but isn't living on an island literally the key to a strong navy
>>25354262Everyone says Westeros is based on. England but I disagree.>North of the WallAlaska/Canada>Northsouthern Canada>RiverlandsPNW>ReachSouthern California>DorneMexico
>>25354921It's riffing on people who complain about geography shaping cultures in fantasy stories being too cliche.
>>25354870Remove the ice and it's pretty cool.
>>25354465it's free for Veneto residents.veneto is not italy
>>25354465it's 5 bucks
>>25354966Geographically it's literally Great Britain on top of upside down flipped Ireland brother.
>>25354302It's the setting for Julian May's Pliocene saga. Worth seeking out.
>>25356955>will eventually rival the lord of the rings and the foundation trilogyAin't nobody heard of this shit. Still I like ooga booga stories. Quest For Fire is probably the best I've read. Clan of the Cave Bear was decent but the rest just becomes mommy porn. Is this one better?
>>25356955>When a one-way time tunnel to Earth’s distant past, specifically six million B.C., was discovered by folks on the Galactic Milieu, every misfit for light-years around hurried to pass through it. Each sought his own brand of happiness. But none could have guessed what awaited them. Not even in a million years.Wait no you trucked me what is this. Stolen ooga booga valor.
>>25354293Pre-eruption Thera is straight out of D&D.
Australia was wasted on Abos. If white men had been there in earlier times it would've been the Rome of the southern hemisphere.
>>25354921Not necessarily, but it can certainly motivate a power towards focusing on the navy in certain situations.
>>25357384Sometimes for woke events here they try to use 'traditional Aboriginal flavours' in dishes, like the native berries and herbs, but it's all disgusting and bitter and lacks substance because they were too busy eating each other to cultivate any produce. Really makes you wonder
Expo City from Air Combat 3 Electrosphere the PSone game
>>25354274fuck that's a lot of mountains>>25355551>under the ice you will believe>under the ice you will be free
>>25357384>If white men had been there in earlier times Then white people would've lived ghe same life that abos did. Asians, orientals and semites taught you civilisation. Europe was simply lucky to be an appendage to Asia
>>25358528seething brownie faggot lmao.
>>25354293It's literally Morrowind.
>>25354262It's a real pity that Robert E Howard didn't construct a coherent setting for Conan, based on actual history.Instead he bandies place-names like Cimmeria, Scythia and Hyperborea with no regard for their real locations.
>>25354262I don't know, but I based my fantasy world on an unturned map of a real world location and no one out of the 50+ readers have so far batted an eye
>>25354465i went there during covid and it was paradise with only european touristsunless there's a world war I'll never be able to experience that again
>>25354966what a mutt-tier post. literally 0/5
