Title: Total area of each realm
Post by: Velax on January 31, 2013, 02:04:11 PM
I had some free time and thought I'd work out just how much of the Far East each realm covers, in square miles. Here's the list:

Arcaea: 83435 square miles (22.42%)
Cathay: 60276 square miles (16.20%)
Coralynth: 28672 square miles (7.70%)
Greater Aenilia: 43223 square miles (11.62%)
Kindara: 55809 square miles (15.00%)
Ohnar West: 34625 square miles (9.30%)
Principality of Zonasa: 41370 square miles (11.12%)
Sorraine: 24714 square miles (6.64%)
Total: 372124 square miles

Sorraine: 24714 square miles (6.64%)
Total: 372124 square miles

I asked the internet to give me this in convenient units instead, for fun.

Arcaea: Belarus
Cathay: Tunisia
Coralynth: Panama
Greater Aenilia: Honduras
Kindara: Nepal
Ohnar West: Serbia
Principality of Zonasa: Guatemala
Sorraine: Lithuania
Total: Egypt

Nice. :)

And if the Far East were a single country in the real world, it would be the 31st largest in the world.

Hey! That's pretty cool. Having a real world counterpart for the size also puts things a bit more in perspective.

Aye, it does.  Makes me wonder what all the continents are like in that regard.

Woah. Interesting to think that Arcaea is only as big as Belarus. Now I feel a lot better about Sorraine being Lithuania sized :p

Awesome work guys! Thanks for throwing that together.

I think that describes all of the Barony's rulers at any point in our history. Though Edda always seemed a bit less insane.

Nothoi is almost exactly the size of Greece. A realm created explicitly with a Greek theme. Name, position names, culture, etc. How can this be coincidence?

Er, quite easily I suspect. Isn't that exactly what a coincidence is?

That was more for dramatic effect than anything else. ;-P

What? Rogue on Atamara is comparable in size to Belgium? How could that much land ever function without a government... Oh yea, Belgium.
Title: Re: Total area of each realm
Post by: vonGenf on February 02, 2013, 10:23:00 AM
All those lands are much smaller than I thought. I fully expected Dwilight to be the size of North America, not Iran.

Oh, and is it Solari or Anaris who translated the table in sq. km? I need to teach one of you about the meaning of significant digits.... :)

Belgium has had a government for quite a while now, thank you :)

To make trade work on the colonies, we had to mess with region geometry. When we ran the numbers, the Colonies were like the size of Atamara. XD

That was me. I was in a hurry and forgot to truncate!

Can a mod move this to BM general discussion? That way those that don't usually read this board can get this cool info.

YEah, I'm shocked that these aren't way bigger.
