Agree about the general aesthetics, but the devs have already confirmed colourblind accessibility options for three different types of colourblindness.

Yes, we yet have to review it, but we think that it's better to keep moving the rest of the feedback, and later post reviewed population maps.

Interesting to see tags being removed, did that happen in any previous feedback post?
Anyways RIP Eppstein your funny name will be missed

Is "Bay" a translation for German "Gau"?
Here you can see Cologne Bay (which for me sounds like Gulf of London) but also Kraichgau (with gau). Why not just Kölngau?
or this

Is this the reason why Markish and Brandenburgish are different cultures? They really should be combined once the pop-editor is fixed.It will take a while, we are now focusing more on the review of locations and other aspects of Tinto Maps, and will probably concentrate the pop review in 'batches' later on, as it's now more efficient to do it this way. But we haven't forgotten about any regions with pending pop reviews, don't worry about that.

Just a few points around Schleswig-Holstein. On the Provinces map you have a province called Schleswig and anther called Sonderjylland. However, Sonderjylland was historically part of Schleswig, so a better name would probably be Northern and Southern Schleswig respectively. Furthermore, on the area map you have Schleswig as part of Denmark and Holstein as a separate area. I would suggest merging all of Schleswig with Holstein under the name Schleswig-Holstein and (if it does not already exist) introduce a formable of the same name. In my view this would better reflect the situation for most of the game period. I am aware that it is not until the Treaty of Ribe in 1460 that the Danish King Christian I promises that the two dutchies shall forever remain undivided, but already in 1326 Valdemar III had promised that the Kingdom of Denmark and Schleswig should not be united under the same ruler. Therefore the idea of Schleswig being part of Denmark was already being challenged at the start of the games period.

Hmm, I think it may be a bug... But you will have more news on the new resources soon, I think.

Can we also throw in some Low Country stuff here too?
We still lack a lot of maps in the first Feedback post
I'm still skeptical about the forest and woodland density for the Low Countries. Anyone who has any sources on why it is to be considered this densely forested in this time period? The Low countries switched to peat as the main fuel source in the 1200's for a reason.
Limburg and the Campine area had a lot of Heathland in the sandy regions (imo 'Sparse' could be used for the worst parts of those regions, like Bree, Hasselt, Turnhout, Eindhoven). Most modern forests in the region are introduced in the 16th century (initially for masts in shipbuilding, later for coal mining infrastructure).
-----------------
Breda and 's Hertogenbosch should not be considered wetlands, at least considering the location surface area. The cities are positioned at the base of a local sandy platform, at the edge of the Rhine-Meuse wetlands. Link to paleogeographic maps
Tiel-Nijmegen is also a very fertile wetland, and this part of Gelre was renowned for its wheat fertility, so if no-one else objects I would make those 2 farmlands.
(For those wondering, yes: I will make the full topographic feedback for this TM later on)

Thanks mate, I was in the gym and was in a hurry. I also noticed that they added saffron so I guess they capitulated in the 'only generic Spices raw good' topic.

Also is it just me, or is the Brugge market extremely small compared to neighbouring markets? I don't see how Lübeck could control the trade in East Friesland when Brugge is a lot closer when following the sea. I'd argue the majority of the locations along the Maas traded with Brugge more than Cologne. All of Guelders, Brabant and Utrecht had more trade with Holland and Flanders than Cologne. I'd even argue that Münster should be a part of the Brugge node because a lot of the trade went along the Vecht through Zwolle.

Silesian duchies were not yet part of HRE.
You could combine bringing them in with "The Crown of Bohemia" event from the Bohemian flavour.

1. We will talk about the different HRE categories in a Tinto Talks devoted to HRE.
2. Lime green are Free Imperial Cities, duller green are other republics, dark blue are Imperial Prelates (= theocracies), and grey are regular 'Imperial Princes' members, yes.
