The Áaaians are not pleased about that little blip next to their territory being inhabited.

Maybe if they count radioactive zombie-mutants as inhabitants...

Kosk is a small republic in the far west of the southern continent.
The country is renowned as a tourist trap: no tourist that came to Kosk for a vacation ever returned. This is even reflected in the slogan "You will never return, or even want to do so!", that is aired all day long on TVs all over the world.
In reality, tourists are immediately enslaved after they come to Kosk and they have to serve the Koskans until their death, or have all their organs removed and sold for transplantating all over the world.
The main exports include human organs, fermented olives and porcelain cups.

Italy has a market economy characterized by high per capita GDP and low unemployment rates. It exports pizza, popes, and peperoncinis, which they sell to neighboring countries. It is also noted for its automobiles and fashion design, as well as quaint villages among the hills and along the shores.

Eritrea is a poor country located along the Red Sea coast, opposite the JJJJ. It was colonized by Italy 123 years ago and was held by them for 46 years. Recently, the Eritrean emigration to Italy has increased because of frequent famines in Eritrea.

Tasnica is a republic located on the southern end of the western continent. It comprises a castle town surrounded by expansive terrain dedicated to agriculture. All of the most important and influencial citizens live in the castle town, while those that provide the resources to sustain the castle town are mostly ignored.
The castle became the centre of political life 15 years ago, when the leader Serin told everyone to move there. Later he was killed in battle. When he died, his best friend, Jema, stopped fighting and went north.
Tasnica's chief export is spies.

The Barbery Coast is a loose collection of coastal cities where the entire population is of a peculiar race of the human species wherein all members have beards. Yes, that includes the women and children. They are known for keeping extravagant and extravagantly decorating these beards, which requires there to be a special artisan class wholly dedicated to the maintenance of beards. Their primary export is beard hair. They also have a tendency to occasionally immigrate to the nearby Sea-public of Pirate-topia, where they are known as Barbery Pirates.
Re: Kool map game
Jemasworld consists of the remnants of the followers of Jema, "friend" of Serin of Tasnica as they fled northward following Serin's demise. The majority of Jemasworld is sparsely populated and borders are ambiguously defined along the Barbery Coast, while expanding to occupy the northern coast of the Western continent, whereupon they have begun assimilating into the local indigenous population. Jemasworld maintains an antagonistic relationship with Tasnica, which accuses Jema and her followers of assassinating Serin, as well as finding it necessary to fend off frequent inland pirate incursions from both Pirate-topic and the Barbery Coast.
Having been essentially nomadic refugees for the past few years since leaving Tasnica, Jemasworld's hegemonic population has as of yet been unable to capitalize on their fortuitous coastal location for economic growth.

The land of Mysidia was founded 500 years ago by the sage Minwu, and is well known for its wizards. After witnessing casual misuse of magic in Mysidia, Minwu sealed all magic and reopening it to only a select few. The crystal of water is kept in Mysidia, but it was once stolen by the King of Baron, who was actually Kainazzo in disguise.

Re: Kool map game
Aurora Rossa Federation
What began as an uncommonly fastidious coffeehouse has evolved over the decades into one of the great economic (and culinary) powerhouses of the world. The secret to its power lies with its near monopoly on the world supply of coffee, the main crop of its numerous colonies. The federation has established branches in nearly every major city in the world, allowing it to draw vast sums of wealth from the millions of addicts purchasing its overpriced and pretentiously named goods. Its only real opposition has come from the pirates of the neighboring haven islands, who prefer rum over coffee and so remain immune to its machinations.

Sorry, your map is wrong due to my screw-up. It should actually look like this:
Pretty risky running coffee shipments through Super Mario World.

Re: Kool map game
Agart is a small city-state on an island north of Jemasworld. It is a quiet place, and the residents generally like to talk about dwarves. It is primarily noteworthy because of the giant hole in the middle of the large mountain at the centre of the island that leads to the underworld.
There is a small treasure chest in Agart.

Meidscha is an absolute theocracy located in a desert. Its small population is concentrated in poisonous salt mines under the northwestern salt lakes, and in the eastern highlands where Meidschgh, the capital, is located. Meidschan economy is focused on exporting huge amounts of poisonous salt to Vórmósjimolót, where they are processed into chemical weapons.

Re: Kool map game
The twin nations of Sen and Unosen were formerly one country, called Sen. Sen was ruled by a line of kings, but when one king suddenly died without having named a successor, his twin sons, Uhata and Washihata, both claimed the throne. Supporters rallied around the two brothers, and eventually the country was split into two. Unosen means "Real Sen" and is led by Uhata, while the other Sen, called Igisen by the Unosens, meaning "Fake Sen", is led by Washihata.
Unosen is discontinuous after (Igi-)Sen took control of the narrow coastline route that formerly connected Unosen's central area, rich in farmland, with the western peninsula. Additionally, an invasion by the Meidschans to acquire natural resources resulted in the lost of significant territory that used to belong to both Sen and Unosen. This lost of territory has resulted in that the second largest city of Unosen, Omatubarakan, being located in a small exclave between Sen, Jemasland, and Meidscha.
Re: Kool map game
KCUF (Knotted Choghs' United Federation) and Nan are two warring states in the western continent. The two states were formed from the Chogh Empire when, on his deathbed, Emperor Gôngh divided the country in two parts for his two sons. The much more populous KCUF invaded Nan immediately after Gôngh's death to slaughter and enslave everyone without knotted hair and soon split Nan in two parts. Nan managed to retain the colonies in the eastern continent, though, and is currently plotting to invade the KCUF with an army of three million slaves from the colonies.
Re: Kool map game
The Name's Jerho is an absolute monarchy founded by Aurora Rossan billionaire "Jerh" after having a ten milliard dollar bet on whether a nation that sells condoms, dildos, and bibles as its main exports can be successful. He was wrong, but "Jerh" was such a sore loser that he took the money in the pot plus some of his own to buy numerous akers of unowned territory and claimed it for himself, then declared himself The King of All Cosmos, or At Least Just Some Places I Bought, and then he got diplomatic immunity in order to avoid paying his friends back.
While the country is only 8 weeks old it has an extraordinarily high average lifespan, education rate, and GDP. This is mostly having to do with the population being just "Jerh" himself and maybe a harem of some hookers. It's national animal is The Bird and its residents are known as Jerks.

Re: Kool map game
No jpegs please, that's what Cunningham's map is for.
Also please don't put the name of your country on unclaimed land when you can easily fit it inside the country's borders! The country's name is thicker now because I just quickly cleaned up the jpeg artifacts and that's what you're left with. Same with the borders, they only approximate your jpeg borders.

Land of Lakes (abbreviated LoL) is a noncontiguous country located in the center of the central continent. LOL is characterized by its prominently featured lakes which share borders with Jerho and Aurora Rossa Federation. LOL has well developed tourist infrastructure around its lakes, but has little in the way of natural resources.

Occupying an elongated plateau in the center of the Northern Continent, Ding Dong is a lightly populated nation of mountain-dwelling, goat-herding, and dairy-eating people. The chief exports are balls, liquid courage, and milk. Quite often, its armies gather and invade the fertile Lower Bay by exiting through the pass at the far southern tip of Ding Dong.
Recently Jerho has sprung up along the country's shaft; by royal edict, unwanted growths are excised quickly, so the fledgling state may not have much time remaining.
