Running projects: Franconian Empire

My current map-project is to make a hex map of central-europe (maybe more?) in 800 AD. That will be Britain and Ireland (with all their kingdoms) and also the Franconian Empire. Right now I have found several resources, but further suggestions are still welcome. You can download the map of Central Europe in high resolution (11MB).

 How was this done?
The maps were made with Aklandas Fantasy Simulator, which you can download for free.
Have a look at the pdf-"How-To" on how the maps where done! Or view the video "Hexing Britain and Ireland in less than 20 minutes"

Attention: This world-map is based on a mercator-projection. This means, it may be misleading in accordance to the area each continent is occupying. This also means, the hexes shown in this map are not all 72-miles hexes. If you want to learn why, have a look at "Why this world map is wrong!"
