Albion=Europe and the British Isles (and Greenland)?
Tell me, does anyone notice the resemblance of the map of Albion to Europe-England-Ireland-Greenland?
If you look at the map in the game, zoom out, and assume that the map is somewhat wrong, longitude and latitude are really messed up, and the world has changed a bit since that time/our time, then it does look a lot alike. Even more so if you just assume that Albionian cartographers and navigators just suck.
Assume that the big mainland is western Europe. Assume that the Witchwood is Britian, the island with Hook Coast is Ireland, and the island with Snowspire is Greenland. No, they're not really in the right places, or the right shapes... but they're very similar.
You could also say that the big mainlad is Britian blown all out of proportions, Witchwood Ireland, Hook Coast a random island in the middle of nowhere or (unlikely) Iceland, and Snowspire Greenland.
Please, give me your opinions: am I crazy, striving to delude myself, or do I have something here?
