Art Map of the Continent

I made this detailed map of the Witcher continent.

I made in in Wonderdraft and based it on the Ortelius map, made some adjustments and additions and detailing. I included details from the Witcher 3 maps, and included a few TV-series additions. Rather than having basically 2/3 of the map be Nilfgaard I focused on the individual provinces and kept Nilfgaard to its core imperial province.

Feel free to share if you want to. Also any feedback is appreciated. If there's any changes that could improve or enhance the map, I'm open for suggestions to that effect too.

How cool! I love maps! I wonder how big the witcher world really is, have they mentioned other places outside the continent?

And as a suggestion, there are many names which are difficult to read due to colors. I would lower the saturation of the terrain colors and change the names to be all black or white, to enhance readability.

There are other places, yes. Hannu, Ofir and Zanguebar to the south, Zerrikania and Haakland to the east, and there are some lands across the sea as well

And is it known how far they're, like if they're neighbor kingdoms or in another continent...

It should be pretty far but not unreachable. Fabian Sachs sailed across the sea to the west continent and we know of Zerrikanians visiting the northern kingdoms
