How big is Cerilia in miles?
Edit: Work in progress, I didn't take out the coastal area's ... see my other post in this thread for explanation.
Edit: #2 -- I went back and checked for version of map I used: Drakkon's 2.12.2006 v1
I was up late & my ADHD is kicking in again while crunching numbers for the Web Play project. So I took a detour & was exploring map of Cerilia they have in PDF forms for giggles. This is quick so give or take 75 miles for each direction.
It occurred to me that, if the key scale is correct & using a ruler:
17 lengths x 75 miles east to west is 1275 miles across
11 lengths x 75 miles north to south is 825 miles across
1,051,875 miles squared is the size of Birthright's world. 3,930,000 square miles is Europe by way of comparison.
From this we can take the number of provinces (847 minus up 30 for off shore) & then find the average size in squared miles of each province
Which turns out to be ~1243miles squared or ~35 miles north to south & 35 west to east. This of course is an average. There's bigger & smaller. Also you should note that 1275 divided by 25 miles per day (an armies speed) for 17 months to cross continent is done "...as a crow flies..." & not following roads if they are even available.Last edited by Mirviriam; 06-11-2010 at 09:04 AM.
