This is one of the earliest AO Maps in existence (There are a handful of older ones that are a bit less organized and sensible). This map is from before the great war that led to the glassing of Tachbe, which was a crucial transition point that marked the beginning of AO as a Sporting Empire vs. a non-sporting one. The R.L. Date on this map is 05/2004 -------------------------------------- Historical Map Record: https://atlantianoceania.com/uploads/post-39-1324277149.jpg https://atlantianoceania.com/post-39-1324277585.jpg http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/aomap.jpg http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/aomapjan.jpg -- http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/aomapwater.jpg http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/aomapfeb.jpg http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/aomapmar.jpg http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2005/12/05/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2005/12/06/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/land/2005/12/06/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2005/12/10/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2005/12/10/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2005/12/13/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2005/12/13/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/01/03/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2006/01/03/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/01/06/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2006/01/06/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/01/21/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2006/01/21/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/01/28/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2006/01/28/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/02/03/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2006/02/03/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/02/11/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2006/02/11/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/03/10/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2006/03/10/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/03/15/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2006/03/15/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/04/01/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2006/04/01/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/05/01/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2006/05/01/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/06/17/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2006/06/17/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/07/10/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2006/07/10/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/07/29/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/large/2006/07/29/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/12/09/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2007/04/22/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2007/05/19/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2007/06/18/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2007/12/04/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2008/03/06/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2008/11/09/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2009/03/31/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2010/01/17/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/cities/2010/01/17/ http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2011/12/07/ -- http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/cities/2011/12/07/ http://i989.photobucket.com/albums/af14/ASMVandDandS/52312-1.png http://i989.photobucket.com/albums/af14/ASMVandDandS/0604-12.png http://i989.photobucket.com/albums/af14/ASMVandDandS/postwightmap.png http://2015-02-10.atlantianoceania.com/ http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/12-11-20.png http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/12-12-12.png http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/13-01-16.png http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/13-02-10.png http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/13-02-27.png http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/13-04-14.pnghttps://atlantianoceania.com/files/13-04-14-Timezones.jpg http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/13-05-17.png http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/2013-06-AOCitiesMap.png http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/13-07-05.png http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/13-10-15.png http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/13-11-07.png http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/14-01-20.png http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/2014-04-21.png http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/2014-07-02.png http://www.3wideracing.com/3wide/sites/ao/maps/2015-02-10.png |

Here is a map evolution from 3 Months after the map posted above. The currently accepted geography of AO becomes more prevalent, Tachbe has been glassed and future sporting superpowers Starblaydia, Sarzonia and Krytenia arrive as n00bs, as well as Lamoni, NEWI Cefn Druids and Pedriana. |

Those are awesome. it is really cool to see the progression from the first inw to where we are now. |

Somebody really had a nation called 'Abattoir'?!? I dread to think what living there must have been like... |
Posted by: Falcania Dec 19 2011, 09:01 AM |
Good god, this makes me feel OLD. When I set up shop, Xile, Abattoir and Crystilakere/Diamindokere were still knocking about. Obviously that's before I got my mittens on Diamindokere. And I remember some of the old guard. Nedalia, Khazaron, Bazalonia, even Lamoni, before we fell out over egregious miscalculations towards his tiny economy. |
Posted by: Vilita Dec 19 2011, 07:35 PM |
Here is the first map ever that had Falcania on it. I assume its from about March 2005. |
Posted by: The Bear Islands Dec 20 2011, 05:37 AM |
Was the island labelled 'UN' meant as a claim that this region was hosting the NS-UN's headquarters? |
Posted by: Nojika Dec 20 2011, 10:50 AM |
Wow... Like Falcania said, this certainly makes me feel old! I had forgotten about Nova Roma and Tachbe! No, The Bear Isles, that island was a part of Lamoni who was our UN delegate at the time. |
Posted by: Falcania Dec 20 2011, 01:18 PM |
Also, nice to know my current military outpost is squatting in Lamoni's dirt. |

Thank you for the explanation. |
Posted by: Vilita Dec 30 2011, 03:21 PM |
Interesting to see how the Nomadic Peoples of Krytenia have walked around too |

Valanora may never talk to me again for saying this, but I kinda enjoy the map from 12/9/2006, even though it's also the first one I was removed from. |
Posted by: Vilita Jan 9 2012, 12:11 AM | ||||
It was also very nearly full at that stage; ) |
Posted by: Valanora Jan 9 2012, 01:36 AM |
I hate both of you. |
Posted by: Vilita Jan 9 2012, 01:38 AM | ||
Don't shoot the messenger |
Posted by: Pacitalia Jan 10 2012, 03:38 PM |
Wow, it's hard to believe I have been in this region for just over 6 years... but I guess that's what happens when you play this game for almost 10. |
Posted by: Vilita Jan 10 2012, 09:44 PM | ||
I wonder, what region I was in before AO. I wonder if theres ever a way to find out |

AO Waterways Map, pre some of the recent landmass changes. http://files.atlantianoceania.com/maps/aomapwater.jpg |

That was probably our http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/12/09/ in terms of "look, we're like a real place" In my mind, Legalese slots into #2, Falc has expanded into #3 and Cockbill Street is still #4. Love it. |
Posted by: Falcania Jul 18 2012, 04:29 AM |
I remember that map. Halcyon days. You can see why I really wanted Diamindokere's soil, can't you? It was just a Falcania-shaped hole. |

Wow, I love this thread. I see I have inherited the broken version of Köseli Cumhurîyetler. I plan to continue 'The Great Remove' in AOCAF, and I think a little bit of archeology might turn up remnants of KCU. Does anyone have anything I can go on? Anyone remember something interesting about the user, or if they are still around in a different form, point me to their new nation? EDIT: OK, engaged research head and found a usable wiki article plus a few WC-48 RPs so I have something to work with. But if the user is still around in another form and someone can identify them, it would be good to make contact. |
