Hi! What's better than having Tinto Maps on a Friday? I think that getting more maps on a Thursday might do the trick. 
As in previous feedback posts, here is the list of changes:
As a note, after the review, the location density in France is more aligned with that of Iberia, while still not as high as that of the Low Countries, Germany, and Italy. As I mentioned in previous posts, this DOES NOT mean that we will be adding hundreds of new locations in each review, but that we're trying to level a map of which their first locations were added back in 2020, so we get a smooth transition between the most dense and the less dense regions.
Without further ado, maps:
Countries:
We've added a few minor countries; Béarn and Mont de Marsan are PUs of Foix, La Marche is a PU of Bourbonnais, and Perche is a PU of Alençon. Apart from that, the ruler of Ferrette/Pfirt is Joanna of Pfirt, spouse and consort of Duke Albrecht II of Austria, therefore starting on a PU with him. There are also a few meaningful changes in the shape of some countries, of which the ones for Auvergne probably are the most relevant. Oh, and also there's now a connection between the northern and southern crownlands, as per the locations of Brosse and Limoges, which makes the county of La Marche (another addition, ruled by Louis of Bourbon in PU) to be divided.
Dynasties:
Locations:
Location map with all the new locations. You might also notice the new lakes and wastelands added; the Central Masif is not any more such a complex place (although we've kept a few wastelands there), and we've improved a bit the mountain passes in the Alps, so they're now easier to understand, with less disconnected chunks, etc.
Provinces:
Lots of changes in this mapmode! We've made a great rework of it thanks to your feedback, and we think that now provinces read much more flavorful. If you would have any more naming suggestions, please let us know!
Terrain:
Regarding the topography, we've adjusted the Central Masif and the Alps, we've added some marshlands (mostly on the western coast), and some more hilly locations here and there. Regarding the vegetation, we've also read and applied your feedback; farmlands are a bit more distributed, and some regions are less forested (Britanny, Landes), while others are more forested (Auvergne). BTW, ignore the different coloring of Narbonne, it's a graphical bug that appeared while taking the screenshots.
Cultures:
Not many changes here, I just wanted to share an updated distribution of the cultures, after the new provinces were added. For this reason, there's no need to repost the religious map. Although, I'm letting you know one thing: We're adding a few Cathars to the region! However, that's not yet fully ready, as we need to gather some additional data; I'll share it with you as soon as it's fully ready.
Raw Materials:
Reviewed materials. France is no longer half-covered by Olives!
Population:
New pops! I'm not attaching the country level, as there aren't many changes (e.g. France now has 5.601M inhabitants instead of 5.646). I might also have spoiled some WIP up in the British Isles...
One more time, thanks for your feedback! We'll read your comments in this thread, and check if there are any more tweaks that we might have to do. The next region review that we will most likely share with you is Italy, as we have less feedback to implement compared to Poland and the Baltic region, and we want to make sure that we take the time we need to have a proper review of it before sharing.
See you tomorrow again, in the Tinto Maps devoted to Carpathia and the Balkans!
