ah this looks good, but if you want to see the 3digit army circles in corsica good (large map), then i suggest placing it a bit more southwards (right aboove the name)

good point.
here is the corrected xml:

Could we see the corrected xml on the maps please? After that last large version I don't want to take any chances.

I went to go edit things with the legend and didn't have the font on this computer I used in the legend with it being new, so I did a new legend. I think it looks better. What do you guys think. It's all lined up and reordered now too.
I also darkened the buildings.. is it a new xml check away from quench?

there's more work on the legend I don' have the same font as before so that's fucked as I don't want to rasterize.

The map is very nice but something I don't understand is why territories' names (most of them) are in french and "continents" names are in english :p

3 options I want everyone to choose from
The one from above just barely.
How it was before with the eurostilebold font
A new thing I tried which i actually liked best seems most french and fitting.

I didn't really know the continents name in french, and when I had some in french I got told I should anglicize them, it was one of the very first things. It didn't happen that way with the countries.

No, not French.. Well, maybe it is French, but I still don't know what the right word would be.
Not romantic either. Oh well, C is the best out of them all.
