Deciphering the Map
In #698 we were presented with a map of the continent the Order currently is on. Personally I can't read all the names and I bet I'm not the only one, so how about we try figure out what they all say?
The East has been made clear already in the strip and has the most readable names: Empire of Blood, Empire of Tears, Empire of Sweat, Reptilia and the Free City of Doom.
The South only has the People's Democratic Dictatorship clearly readable for me, and an East Something and West Something. Lastly there is a Dictatoria to north bordering the sea.
Any takers?Homebrewer's Signature | Avatar by Strawberries

Re: Deciphering the Map
There's also a "The Dark Republic". I'm wondering what most of the ones in the north are, though.

Re: Deciphering the Map
The nation bordering Scalya, Dictatoria, and Cruelvania looks like another <something bad>land. Fiendland?

You could make a cartoon in crayons about a red square that falls in unrequited love with a blue circle, and there wouldn’t be a dry eye in the house if you know how to tell a story.

Re: Deciphering the Map
There seems to be a border between the Empire of Sweat and the unnamed polity that contains Sandsedge. Great map!
