    Welcome to the guild Marscaleb. You rmap is a good start. Nice and clean. Its obviously a wobbly flipped Europe though which I assume is deliberate for your story. Keep going and post the work in progress.

    Yes, the world is intended to bear a strong resemblance to a mirrored version of our world, but I also don't want it to be exact.
    Similar enough for the reader to pick up certain similarities, but different enough that they don't complain about elements that don't fit that allegory.

    To that end, what looks too much like our world? What looks cheap and lazy, versus what looks reasonable?
    Also, are there any spots that look like they need more detail?

    Here's a new version.
    I've revised a little bit of Not-Norway and enhanced some detail in the Black Sea. I've also included some labels even though I don't have the borders ready yet.
