    I have nothing personal with anyone...In these forums we all try to make the GAME we like a bit better.No human race is stupid that's for sure.All humans have their own share for humanity's development.As for the history we all must remember what Thoucidides(the father of historians)said... History is a number of facts that none can change...but if someone wishes to know them can not simply have only one view,even after 100 views a historian is just closer to the truth... PS This series of games were a good reason for all of us to learn something more and we just share our knowlege.Have fun

    Looking over the map a little more, I'm finding things that I'm sort of mystified by. For example, why does Livonia have three provinces, and Scotland four, while the Low Countries have only two?

    Also, while some areas (Hungary and the Balkans, British Isles, Southern Italy) look very good viz. the province boundaries, other areas (mainly the HRE) look very odd. Stuff like tearing up the Tirol and Switzerland into a bunch of pieces and distributing them to neighboring provinces, giving Ostfriesland to the Netherlands, and in general some very oddly shaped provinces in the HRE that I can't really understand the reasoning for. Everything in the map looks fairly good, apart from the HRE (and the Algeria province which reaches down into interior and looks really weird).

    EDIT:
    Nevermind, I did a google image search and I guess the map of the HRE is being based directly on the official division of the Empire as here. In fact that might be the exact map they're using. I just disagree with it because the way the provinces were officially set up was not how they were actually divided in practice.
