At the least, it should explain some of the directions and ideas I've talked about. The kill line is a latitude limit above which everything was killed (either immediately or poisoned) by the Great Rain of Fire. The various subregions of the elves, thonia, tanagoro and oltecs helped to explore why people were where they were. Lumbrai (on the thonia map) is an equivalent of RW Numidia bringing Oltec slaves onto IoD and Bellisaria on behalf of the Empire. The Oltec and Tanagoro nations are all based on RW cultures. Note the effect that glaciers would have on migrations. One correction needed on the map is flooding on the landbridges, all of which should be gone by 800 BC. -OldDawg

I have had a (pipe-)dream of creating a powerpoint presentation showing the history of Mystara and its peoples, but of course time makes this near-impossible, especially since I'd have to learn how to use powerpoint well first! ;) Thanks for posting these!
