Are you going to remove those sea tiles or add more ports in the area?

I think there should be much less Pomor people and much more Veps. And please no Bjarmian (not proven).Hello, and welcome to another Tinto Maps feedback review! This week, we will be taking a look at Russia, a very anticipated review (which Johan already advanced in some maps last week).
A note before we start on the area that we've covered in this update. We've focused it on the core Russian lands, plus the Kola Peninsula. This means we've not yet updated the lands of Vyatka and Perm, nor those ruled by the Golden Horde. These will be covered in the future Tinto Maps feedback post, probably the one for the Steppes and Western Siberia. With that said, let's take a look at the list of changes, and then start with maps!

In the first screenshot you can see the wider picture of the region, while in the second, we have the Russian Principalities more in detail. The main change here, besides the additions, is that most of them are now under the Tatar Yoke. Speaking of that, two more screenshots, the first with the IO itself, the second with the lands ruled by Ivan I 'Kalita', Prince of Muscovy:

The second screenshot is taken playing as Novgorod, which has an elective system to pick its ruler, the current one being Ivan I 'Kalita'; you may see that Pskov and Orshek are subjects of Novgorod, while the other Principalities share with Novgorod a Personal Union under the aforementioned Prince of Muscovy.
Dynasties

The map of Russia is much clear when you just take into account the ruling dynasties...
Societies of Pops

A map mode that we hadn't revealed yet when we first presented Russia, as a few more below.

Russia is in general terms a cold, flat, and forested region. The climate has already been changed to the new standard (1901 distribution). Please let us know any further terrain suggestions for us!
Development
View attachment 1228111
View attachment 1228113
Another new map, the development one. There's a big difference between the core lands, and the outer ones.
Harbors
View attachment 1228114
A few interesting harbors here.
Cultures
View attachment 1228115
Some tweaks here, as we now have Bjarmian, Polatskian, and Smolenskian spreading over the Russian map. It's WIP, so suggestions are welcome.
Languages

View attachment 1228117
View attachment 1228118
This is our current proposal for Russia, following the feedback received, although take it as non-final. First, there are two Languages, Russian and Ruthenian, both belonging to the Slavic language family. Each of them is divided into two different 'Dialects' (remember, this is a gameplay term, as they're closer to real-life languages), Novgorodian and Russian for Russian, and Belarusian and Ukrainian for Ruthenian. The later terms are a bit modern for 1337, but we wanted to show here clearly what linguistical spheres we wanted to portray; we will gladly receive suggestions to potentially change these names for more flavorish ones if you think so. Finally, the third map is the Court Language, as you may notice because of having Latin over the Livonian and Prussian lands.
Religions
View attachment 1228124
Not many changes in the religious map mode. The main one is the portrayal of 'Finnish ancient religion' ('Suomalainen muinaisusko'), which we've called in-game 'Muinaisusko'; please let us know if you like this name, as well.
Raw Materials

I suggest you to make an exercise, and find the differences with the original Tinto Maps...
Markets
View attachment 1228130
Not many differences, but I thought that a bigger picture wouldn't hurt, as taking a look at another endonym possible with our new flavor system, 'Moskva'.
And that's all for today! We'll be reading your feedback to our feedback review (feedback loop!), and replying to your questions, as usual. The next Tinto Maps will be this Friday, the 13th, about Central America. Aaand, we will be able to have one more Tinto Maps Feedback post before the Christmas break, the one devoted to Levant and Egypt, next Monday, the 16th! Cheers!
Теперь же хочу поведать, о чем слышал четыре года назад и что рассказал мне Гюрята Рогович, новгородец, говоря так: «Послал я отрока своего в Печору, к людям, которые дань дают Новгороду. И пришел отрок мой к ним, а оттуда пошел в землю Югорскую. Югра же — это люди с языком непонятным, и соседствуют они с самоядью в северных странах
Why is the border of Ryazan Area so strange?Hello, and welcome to another Tinto Maps feedback review! This week, we will be taking a look at Russia, a very anticipated review (which Johan already advanced in some maps last week).
A note before we start on the area that we've covered in this update. We've focused it on the core Russian lands, plus the Kola Peninsula. This means we've not yet updated the lands of Vyatka and Perm, nor those ruled by the Golden Horde. These will be covered in the future Tinto Maps feedback post, probably the one for the Steppes and Western Siberia. With that said, let's take a look at the list of changes, and then start with maps!

The second screenshot is taken playing as Novgorod, which has an elective system to pick its ruler, the current one being Ivan I 'Kalita'; you may see that Pskov and Orshek are subjects of Novgorod, while the other Principalities share with Novgorod a Personal Union under the aforementioned Prince of Muscovy.

Russia is in general terms a cold, flat, and forested region. The climate has already been changed to the new standard (1901 distribution). Please let us know any further terrain suggestions for us!
Development

This is our current proposal for Russia, following the feedback received, although take it as non-final. First, there are two Languages, Russian and Ruthenian, both belonging to the Slavic language family. Each of them is divided into two different 'Dialects' (remember, this is a gameplay term, as they're closer to real-life languages), Novgorodian and Russian for Russian, and Belarusian and Ukrainian for Ruthenian. The later terms are a bit modern for 1337, but we wanted to show here clearly what linguistical spheres we wanted to portray; we will gladly receive suggestions to potentially change these names for more flavorish ones if you think so. Finally, the third map is the Court Language, as you may notice because of having Latin over the Livonian and Prussian lands.
Religions
View attachment 1228124
Not many changes in the religious map mode. The main one is the portrayal of 'Finnish ancient religion' ('Suomalainen muinaisusko'), which we've called in-game 'Muinaisusko'; please let us know if you like this name, as well.

Not many differences, but I thought that a bigger picture wouldn't hurt, as taking a look at another endonym possible with our new flavor system, 'Moskva'.
And that's all for today! We'll be reading your feedback to our feedback review (feedback loop!), and replying to your questions, as usual. The next Tinto Maps will be this Friday, the 13th, about Central America. Aaand, we will be able to have one more Tinto Maps Feedback post before the Christmas break, the one devoted to Levant and Egypt, next Monday, the 16th! Cheers!
Though, concerning the fate of the princes of Putyvl [after the Mongol invasion], there are at least some sources on them. Novohorod-Siversky church notes ('synodyk') call them 'a bright ray in the dark times of Kyiv after the Batu invasion'. Synodyk mentiones [Kyivan princes] Ivan (Ioann) of Putyvl, his son Ivan-Volodymyr Ivanovych of Kyiv, Andriy of Ovruch (could be the brother of the latter) and his son Vasyl (that was killed in Putyvl) [those are the princes of the first quarter of the XIV century, around 1290 – 1325, as mentioned in the second screenshot].
Probably after having secured the Kyiv throne, Putyvl princes established a strong connection between Kyiv and their 'fatherland', its traces are then observed for the next 200 years. In the acts of the second half of the XV century it was mentioned that Putyvl taxes went to Kyiv and that all Putyvl governors were Kyivan nobles only.
Then (after the Lithuanian-Muscovite peace of 1503) Kyivan elites send petitions to the Polish/Lithuanian king Sigismund I the Old that they were very disappointed with the loss of Putyvl that was 'Kyivan holding with 14 volosti around it...'
The fact that Ovruch had its own prince meant that it had become quite an important (maybe the second after Kyiv) administrative centre of the Kyiv land in the XIV century. Probably due to the fact that Kyiv lost control of the South, where Tatars had direct rule.
Zavolochye is located incorrectlyHello, and welcome to another Tinto Maps feedback review! This week, we will be taking a look at Russia, a very anticipated review (which Johan already advanced in some maps last week).
A note before we start on the area that we've covered in this update. We've focused it on the core Russian lands, plus the Kola Peninsula. This means we've not yet updated the lands of Vyatka and Perm, nor those ruled by the Golden Horde. These will be covered in the future Tinto Maps feedback post, probably the one for the Steppes and Western Siberia. With that said, let's take a look at the list of changes, and then start with maps!

In the first screenshot you can see the wider picture of the region, while in the second, we have the Russian Principalities more in detail. The main change here, besides the additions, is that most of them are now under the Tatar Yoke. Speaking of that, two more screenshots, the first with the IO itself, the second with the lands ruled by Ivan I 'Kalita', Prince of Muscovy:

Does this looks a bit more palatable? Merged the 3 languages into Oghuz and then you have Turkish/Turkmen/Azeri dialects

PUs work differently in Project Caesar, we'll talk more about in a future Tinto Talks.How does Novgorod function as a country in-game? Like a PU in EU4? More independently? For what I've seen, it was very independent by these times and should not be represented as too subject to the Muscovites.
Everyone living at that time in the Moscow principality will say that they spoke Russian, what is the Moscovite language? I agree with the different cultures of Novgorod and Moscow, but with a single Russian language.The concept of Muscovy and Muscovites was usually used by the Poles for the cultural alienation of Moscow/Russia from the historical lands of Rus as the next claimants to these lands. The princes of Moscow, Smolensk, Chernigov, Vladimir called themselves Russian people.Since the language is Russian this could be renamed to Moscovite
