This is a revision of a continent in a previous world I started. I think this will be my main project. The main land mass is about 25% bigger than Australia, and extends from the arctic north to the tropics. And has all biomes represented.
I have already started on smaller areas.
All the names mean something in English, but I have used various languages (via Google Translate) to represent the various ethnic groups, eg Ukrainian for Kratirim, Icelandic for Vynlings, Georgian for Dwarves, Hungarian for orcs, Persian for reptilians, Irish for Elves, Italian for Norvians, Swahili for Swabentu and Maori or Yamatji for Dingadau.
All the 'civilized' nations are marked in with their capital cities.
A larger version is in the Gallery.

Fun project I also use Google Translate for names. Starting doing that for naming deities in different pantheons (for example, using words like rain, thunder, lightning, etc to come up with a name for a Thor-like god). It’s super helpful in maintaining consistency within a culture and emphasizing differences across cultures.
