I’ve been drawing maps for
years. Early drafts of some maps were
completed in 2001; unfortunately the early background map was poor quality and
those maps weren’t satisfactory. I
finally found a good map background to use in early 2007. The new background was basically in several
pieces that I had to fit together to create <the background map>.
The first new map draft
was completed quickly afterwards (East-Hem_477ad_6-06-07.jpg, in
Each map has several
earlier drafts. I wanted to make map
updates page so readers can see how much research and work has been put into
project, and also to show what corrections have been made and what still needs
to be corrected. It would take me a LONG
time to go back and try to remember all of the updates to each map. So I decided instead to start listing my
updates starting on

12-29-2008
I probably spent too much time over the last few weeks updating the maps from 001 to 300 AD, but I think it was worth it! Those maps now show more consistency and they are easier to read and understand. Also updated the page on the History of Central Asia (still experimenting with that page).

Updated map of the East-Hem_400ad.jpg to include more accurate info for India and Central Asia.

10-27-2008
Made corrections to maps of East-Hem 480 AD, 486 AD, and 500 AD to replace Liu Song Dynasty with the Southern Qi Dynasty. Also edited maps of Hephthalites in 500 AD and Yueban in 480 AD to show Southern Qi Dynasty.
10-23-2008
Completed and uploaded map of East Hemisphere in 450 AD. Now I have 40 complete maps of the East Hemisphere, with plenty more on the way!
10-21-2008
Over the last week: 1) Added new sections for timelines, history, and alternate history (links will be available when the sections are presentable!). 2) Began adding sources for the 450 AD map that I'm currently working on. 3) Started to add a forum to allow readers an easier way to discuss the maps and share possible corrections, etc.
10-15-2008
Many major changes over the last 2 months. 1) Updated all maps from 400 AD to 900 AD. 2) Added several specialized maps (showing Hephthalites, Romans, Persians, etc.). 3) Started a new section for Historical peoples & nations. 4) Started a Timelines section. 5) Updated sources.
Map_Sources.html: Page was remodeled to an extent and broken
into 4 total pages (Map_Sources, TAL_Sources_pg1,
TAL_Sources_pg2, and TAL_Sources_pg3).
