The New & Improved Map Game (Map Game)

The newest version of the Map Game and The New Map Game. It actually starts out with a fairly historical map of 500 A.D.

The Rules

 * Just like the original Map Game, a turn is a year
 * Take your turn by writing a bunch of random events, then edit the map (Microsoft Paint, FotoFlexer, Adobe photoshop, of any other photo editor will do, but we recomend Pixlr)
 * Don't be ridiculous! (i.e. Finland cannot dclare independence and then invade the entire world, all in a year)
 * If you don't have a map to show for your new edit, it will be deleted! or a map will be mad based on the stuff you wrote
 * This will stop whenever it gets too crazy
 * Please leave comments on the talk page!
 * WE WILL ADD MORE YEARS ONCE WE GET THERE!
 * One other person must go again before you take a turn!
 * PLEASE, make the pictures more consistent. it just looks weird
 * If you have a problem with a post, rather than changing it, post a bit on the talk page about it, and the community will decide.

500 AD
As the nomadic tribes settle down, Europe gains definite borders, shown on the map below.The Kingdom of the Saxons assaults and conquers the kingdom of the Angles with thousands of men

501 AD


The Celtic tribes unite under a high king and make some gains on the British Saxons.

503 AD
With support coming in from Germany, the Saxons conquer Wales and the rest of England, bottling the Celts up into Scotland and Ireland.

504 AD
Whilst the Saxon warriors were carving out a Saxon Empire within the British Isles, disease and weakness at home led to the invasion of the Saxon Homeland by the Turinges people. With the local Saxon warbands beaten back, the call out to the British based warriors becomes a shrill shriek for help. Pouring across the German Sea, the Saxons abandon their new British conquests allowing the subdued Britons to rally to a new king. This king carries the Saxon foe before him, until only East Anglia remains in Saxon hands, and this is hostile territory to the Saxons, being as it is the homeland in exile of the Angle race. Taking advantage of British attention in the south, the Danes take part of the Northern extreme of the island, though their territory is limited by the landscape of the area.
