You might notice that, for once, we were happy with the current location density of this region, so we also added some wastelands and corridors to make sure it worked better (for instance, we linked southern Oman with southern Yemen through corridors). Most of the changes were done on the country setup, and other layers. Let's take a look now at the maps:

Lots of changes from feedback suggestions! The most noticeable changes happen in central Arabia, and also in the Persian Gulf (you might notice that we've already reviewed the Persian region... Don't get anxious, please, there will be another feedback post for it soon!

We're testing some new coloring for this map mode, what do you think about it?

Population
Although we have fixed our pop editor, we want to make a general pass on all pops before any more feedback review is shared, since we have some issues regarding those errors here and there.

And that's all for today! On Friday we will be taking a look at the flavour content for Scotland, cheers!

As I mentioned in the original Arabia thread, Zib is colloquial Arabic for a certain male body part. So you might want to respell it as Zi'b (this is more accurate to the actual word زعب) in order to steer clear of that. But it's not the end of the world.
