Fantasy Counterpart Map | comment |
So, you are creating your own Constructed World, and the last thing on the list of things you need to do is make a map! Perhaps you want readers or your book to get a better sense of the geography and where the characters are traveling, or perhaps you are making a video game and need a physical map for the players to navigate. Some works make their Fantasy World Map of a shape unlike anything Earth has ever seen (although it may resemble a particular object). But others deliberately base their map on a real-world location, copying the overall shape and sometimes geographical features from that real place. There are some advantages to making a map like this. If you are going for a Fantasy Counterpart Culture, it clearly indicates to the audience that your fictional region is going to take inspiration from the real region it looks like. A Medieval European Fantasy may take clear inspiration from Europe, or a specific part of Europe, in its map, for example. The other advantage is that it's just easier — you don't have to completely invent a new landmass shape and try to make it look like something that could have been realistically produced by plate tectonics. These maps aren't always an exact copy of the location they are inspired by — some are actually more or less the real location flipped upside down or otherwise rotated. But the resemblance is still clearly there. |

The world map in Attack on Titan is an upside-down and mirrored version of the standard world map, with much of the action taking place in what in the real world is Madagascar. | |

In the Discworld, the great sprawling port city of Ankh-Morpork evolves over the series. Ankh-Morpork and its surrounding areas are, very deliberately, written to depict a Fantasy Counterpart Culture of England in its various forms. If this wider area depicts England, then its biggest city becomes, by degrees, a version of London. The City Map makes this explicit: the River Ankh is a loop-for-loop copy of the River Thames as it flows through London. The isthmus of the Isle of Gods is in the same relative place, the same shape, and carries much the same landmarks, as the "Isle of Dogs" in London, for instance. The city's district names also have echoes of those in London: examples include "Dimwell" for Milwall, "Dolly Sisters" for Seven Sisters. | |

In Final Fantasy XIV, while not the entirety of the world map is currently revealed, much of what is known resembles the real world: The Three Great Continents (which are categorized as one landmass) and neighbouring places geographically resemble Africa (Aldenard), Europe (Ilsabard), and East Asia (Othard). Othard in particular is even more blatant, with a Fantasy Counterpart Culture to Japan set on an island east of the Fantasy Counterpart Culture of China, which in itself is south of the Fantasy Counterpart Culture of Mongolia. Meracydia is located roughly to the South-East of the Three Great Continents, and is more or less congruent with Australia. The New World is another landmass to the west of the Three Great Continents. Fittingly, it's a Fantasy Counterpart Culture of the pre-colonization Americas. |

Galar is based on the United Kingdom. While most regions look just like their real-world equivalent without any flipping, Galar is rotated 180 degrees compared to real-life Great Britain. The Isle of Armor is based on the Isle of Man, while the Crown Tundra is based on Scotland. | |

The map of Weyard in Golden Sun resembles a map of Earth in the Late Cretaceous Period around 90 million years ago. Bonus points for the continents named Angara (after the ancient continent of the same name, now part of Siberia), Gondowan (after Gondwanaland, which includes Africa which corresponds to the same), and Indra (after the Indian subcontinent). | |

To Shape a Dragon's Breath has a map very much based on Earth's continents in shape. However, the lands have different borders and names, and some don't exist at all. Korea—Zhongu—extends high into Asia and parts of contemporary China (called Shiang-Gang). A large portion of the Middle East in the Iraq/Iran area is together as the country of Kindah. "France" is Frankland (a lot of countries are simply called -land at the end, especially in "Europe"). Several countries don't exist—where "Portugal" would be is part of the country of Vaskosland. North and South America are instead North and South Markesland, having been colonized by the Anglish (Norse) instead of the "English". Furthermore a good portion of North Markesland west of where the Rockies are is obscured in fog, indicating it has not been explored and mapped by the Anglish; it is collectively known as the western frontier. | |

In The Shaping of Middle-Earth, a pencil-sketch map showing Middle-Earth as it was asymmetrically reshaped "After the War of the Gods" makes it resemble Eurasia in some aspects, though not so much in the northwestern area of Beleriand which was the setting of the stories Tolkien was writing at the time; in particular, the landmass lying south of "The Gt. Gulf" is shaped like the African continent. To the northeast of this is an "Inland Sea" which possibly represents the Black Sea and/or Caspian Sea. South of the "East Sea" lies "Dark Land (South Land)," a Mysterious Antarctica not explored in any of Tolkien's stories. (Of course, Middle-Earth is supposed to be Earth, millennia in the past.) | |

Dungeons & Dragons: Brancalonia is basically Italy turned 90-degrees clockwise. Forgotten Realms: The world of Toril has continents that are in the same general locations and shapes as Earth's continents. Among the most noticeable differences are that Europe stand-in Faerûn (where most stories take place) is much bigger, Africa/Arabia stand-in Zakhara is a vast archipelago, and Australia stand-in Osse is a massive landmass. Greyhawk originally had the most literal version of this trope. For his home game, Gary Gygax initially used a map of the Midwestern US for the locations on the Flanaess, with Greyhawk itself mapped to Chicago. For obvious reasons, the map was redone once the world was published as a product, with some callbacks to the original map left, such as the Nyr Dyv looking like Lake Superior. |

Unova is designed based on the New York metropolitan area (including parts of New Jersey). Although Pokémon regions also take inspiration in their cities and geographical landmarks from their real equivalents, Unova differs noticeably at some points to prevent the whole region from being one big city.

While most regions look just like their real-world equivalent without any flipping, Galar is rotated 180 degrees compared to real-life Great Britain. The Isle of Armor is based on the Isle of Man, while the Crown Tundra is based on Scotland. Paldea is based on the Iberian Peninsula. |

Arcia Chronicles: The two known continents resemble Europe and Africa in shape and position, if "Europe" consisted only of France, Germany, Hungary, and Poland, the latter shared a land border with Sweden, and the Iberian peninsula were a large island. Additionally, a large steppe region stretches beyond the mountain range demarcating the eastern border of the fantasy "Poland-Hungary", but it has never been depicted on official maps, so it is unclear how large the "Asian" landmass beyond the mountains is. The land masses are also much smaller than their Real Life counterparts. | |

When Equestria was later expanded, the cities remained in roughly the same place, but the continent looked far less like North America. | |
