Go into an atlas.
Look closely at 50 degrees, 5 minutes north, 5 degrees, 40 minutes west.
Does that name look familiar?
Does that shape look familiar?

Or maybe a coincedence?

Or not.

Or is it?

Firstly: Welcome to the webboards, and secondly, no, probably not coincidince. A lot of the game was based on various aspects of anicent Greece and various other ancient cultures. I think there was a topic showing the likeness of some real city and Kosha, but I can't remember what it was called...

Thats certainly how I came to these boards.
Avatara, I don't know if you read the ATT stuff anymore so I'm delivering this picture.

Thanks Avatara! Posted Image
