I mean geometrically it shouldn't have been one territory but if it was to be named it should have been named Raska although it is not quite that.
Pomoravlje regions is completely wrong. Nobody from Serbia would call region going that far to the west Pomoravlje, nor Belgrade would go that far to the east. My guess is that the creator of the map had an idea of how many regions and what kind of connectivity he/she wanted to have in Serbia and then picked the names but that division is utterly wrong regardless of which period in history you go back to.

I saw the name, but i don't see the source so how in the hell I was able to understand your map is 100% right? there're tons of shit on the web, who or what tell me that the image you posted isn't part of this shit? ...and in any case I asked if anyone was able to confirm the previous suggestion "if you look at my post".
Remember: "All sound advice must be followed unless a logical rebuttal by the mapmaker or another member of the community is provided."
So please don't complain if I do just my job. It's up to you give clear info, it's not up to me search on the web if you're saying the truth!

I mean if the map isn't that great for 1v1 in the first place, why f*ck up the gameplay of the other game types just to make it into a mediocre 1v1 map instead of a bad one?
Thoughts anyone?

Because it comes up on random. Right now, for a 1v1 game, you start with 12 regions. A smart player who goes first uses his 4 deploy to take your capital, and they're deploying 6 and you're deploying 3 before you even start. I don't think you're going to be able to turn this into a good 1v1 map without seriously changing gameplay to the point where you're hurting the other game types, but this would be a terrible deciding game in a 1v1 random tourney or something of the like.
I'm not a mapmaker, but is there any way to code the XML in such a way that it's done differently for 2-player games? I assume there's some sort of switch on Woodboro preventing people from starting with the Pirate Stations in 2-6 player games, but those are starting spots for 7-8 player games... could something similar be done here?
