Hi! About your Massa project, I was curious about the Asconha and Lac D'ogne regions. The rest of the map seems to be pretty faithful to IRL Europe as far as I can tell, with the exception of those two. Any particular reason why?
Also, how did you come up with their names?
Hello ! The geological variations on what is under the sea and what isn't here is a little random. I don't have any particular plans with this as of yet. Asconha is an amalgamation of Gascony which pretty much has the same south/southeast border, and the duchy of Aquitaine that each further up along the atlantic coast. In gascon occitan, Gascony is called Gasconha, hence Asconha. The idea is that of a strong duchy of occitan culture, similarly to what Aquitaine was for a good chunk of the medieval period. Le lac d'Ogne simply matches the current département of Dordogne, simple as. I wanted to have a big fake lake somewhere so I put it on the garonne. RIP la dordogne
