This expansion of my European Historical Trade Map results in this colour-coded interpretation of the eastern hemisphere. Hue indicates culture and luminosity is for wealth. This beta v0.22 still needs refinement but nevertheless should help geography noobs get a quick intuitive understanding of the world. But since it is an early version, and I've not yet had the chance to test it against a panel of international critics, I'm sure some changes will need to be made.
