      @TheMango1 great job!
      Some names for the greak build: Aurelia, Mythralon, Thalassia.
      But I do like "Mythralon" the most.
      Also use google translate to hear how they soud becuase right now they dont look cool but when you hear it, its better.

    My idea for the Greek island is Athendoria combining the main city of Greece and Doria coming from the Greek word for gift (Doros). Btw my prediction for the next one or the last one on the edge is Egypt, a wish for this one is to add a hieroglyph room that the Egyptians used to store their stories and myths

      Well... that build would fill only 20m by 40m blocks, which would leave the rest of the world (20m*20m+60m*40m) unused (considering Minecraft worlds have 60m*60m size with unchanged borders)

    idea, make cultures for all the tribes and add lore to why the world exists. e.g. the central island is what is left from a huge empire that conquered all of the other islands but over time they split up, so you could add ruins or something showing its past

    actually insane work bro. I've been watching since the original hermit rebuilds you did, but I gotta say this is my favorite video so far. I know you said 10k likes for p2, but I know that if you see this all through it will blow up. You could even combine all the episodes into a movie as those tend to blow up. Either way, I cant wait to see where this series goes, and I wish nothing but the best for your channel!

This is gonna be one of the most incredible maps known to date, ngl I would LOVE to see a cyberpunk/ Japanese island, a region where the people have become so advanced because of what there Japanese ancestors left for them in this ancient vault, filled with all sorts of energy crystals, materials only found when conditions align exactly the same as each other underground, making a simple diamond look like coal, using this technology they adapted there life style to machines and energy, but this also led to a life of greed and despair, (obs PG) leaving sections of the island in ruin/slum

  • @DreadedManOfDread
    @DreadedManOfDread 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    It would be cool to give the Aztec Kingdom a name that comes from the culture itself. Here's some names I found:
    Azti Tlalli - this should (in theory) translate to "Land of Rain", which would fit the statue of the rain and weather god you built.
    The Kingdom of Janikua - the 'j' would be pronounced as an 'h' and most of the stress would be on the 'i'. I am fairly sure it translates to "rain".
    Huei Atl - This literally just means ocean, and it also ties into the god you built the statue of. I think this one stands alone just fine, especially since I would guess most of your viewers don't speak Nahuatl.
    That first temple was my favorite!

    I’m take a guess for the next three islands
    1. An Egyptian kingdom I say this due to the two sandy islands
    2. A pirate island since there is one sandy island left and he mentioned that an island will have a lot of palm trees
    3. A dark ages or medieval kingdom since that is quite popular i think that would be great on a central island

    I am half mesoamerican so it suggest an Aztec kingdom name: TechnoChitlan. A large empire surrounded by a large shallow muddy lake. The city’s empire should include to sandstone temples directly next to each other. The left side at the top is dedicated to the god Tlaloc the god of water. The right side was made for Huitzilopochtli, deity of war and of the sun, on the right side. The city has chinampas. A very interesting way of agriculture. The rest of the city has coloured temples, markets and most of the city has canals running though it as boat transport is the main way of transportation. The large lake city is surrounded by the texcoco valley with large mountains and jungles beyond it. Fun fact: the real life version of texcoco was where axolotls originated!
