Description

Here's a bit of a surprise: not only another new entry for the RDNA-verse TL but a full-sized map of the New World itself.

This is, technically, a remake of The New World 2024: RDNA-verse map from 2013, and even uses some of the lore from it. But on top of compiling as much of the recent material as possible onto one work, this was also a good opportunity to really highlight the setting from a broader perspective. Granted, being a "general" overview, it's not quite as detailed as the dedicated maps for North and South America respectively, the results, should, hopefully, speak for themselves.

Though just to be sure, this is a work of fiction. This is not a political, ideological or propaganda screed.

So without further ado, hope you enjoy this tour of the Americas: the last, best hope of the Free World.

EDIT: Last-minute polishing and belated editing, due to the low-quality of the compressed file.

The Contemporary New World: An Introduction

Nearly a century on from when the Terror shook the world, the North and South American continents have held firm as a shining beacon for the Free World as a whole. In fact, the New World is notable not just for hosting the Vatican-in-Exile. For, with the exception of Reactionary Australia and island states like the Empire of Japan, it one of the handful of regions left where the Collectivist Internationale does not predominate. It is little surprise, therefore, that many of the leading powers among the Free Nations are based from here, holding on to their way of life against a persistent foe.

North America, in particular is, host to two of the most prominent of the remaining royalist powers. Through the House of Windsor-Romanov, the remnants of the old British Empire continue to thrive in spite of it all. The Loyalist Dominion of Canada, in particular, has long taken the place of its brothers "across the pond" as the heart of the British Imperial Commonwealth, where the sun still refuses to set. Further south, the Royal Dominion of New Austria under the Habsburg "Throne-in-Exile" stands resolute. A living blend of New World glory and Old World heritage, its people both stand fast in revering and surpassing their lost ancestral homelands. All the while, the mighty American Federation boasts, though not without reason, its pretensions as a powerful bastion of freedom and democracy. As proud, if not paranoid, its citizenry may be, few would doubt their commitment to keeping the spirit of their "Founding Fathers" alive.

South America, meanwhile, is presently dominated by the republican powerhouse that is Gran Patagonia. Mirroring their American counterparts, its citizens have come to see themselves as upholding "Latin Republicanism" and are adamant in defending it at any cost. Neighboring it is the Legitimate Union of Brazil, a nominally royalist nation under a "Military Interregnum" that seems as beholden to the legitimacy bestowed by the Gran Patagonians as it is committed to restoring order. An enduring remnant of Portuguese power, its people still strive to hold fast to their independence and dignity, however hard it may be to escape their old rival's shadow. While these two powers have helped keep the Collectivists in the New World contained, the last vestiges of the old Latin Alliance hang on through the defiant Republic of Colombia. Though led by Reactionaries claiming Bolivar's legacy, Colombians remain firm in upholding their freedom.

Despite a hundred years of struggle and pain, there is little question that the light of the New World, through its myriad nations and diverse cultures, is still as strong as ever. Through their efforts, those of their allies across the Free World and even, to a degree, the Reactionaries who make up the "League of Neutral Defiance," they have held the line, be it with valour or ignoble means. Many of these countries, for all their ideological and political differences, have found greater amity over the years. Indeed, for them to both push forward and carry on the legacies of the so-called "Lost Nations," whether in the streets of New Vienna or the halls of Montreal, in many ways is a victory over the ever-present threat of Collectivism.

Such triumphs, however, are not ones taken lightly. History has shown that even the Americas are not as safe as they appear. All it may take is for one country to fall apart or so much a moment's lapse in vigilance, for the Internationale to finally fulfill its World Revolution in the name of the Will.

For a bit of trivia, some of the placenames are references to some of the earlier canon maps, such as those for New Austria and Loyalist Canada.

The map's overall layout is meant, in part, to be a reference to the 2013 map.

And yes, elements from the various "canon" maps shown previously are here in some form or another. As well as the return of a certain Agency...
