Hey everyone, I noticed some weird things on the world map in Fallout 4 that completely contradict the lore:
-
US and Canada: Why are they still divided by a border? According to the lore, the US fully annexed Canada in 2076 after years of occupation.
-
USSR vs. Russia/CIS: Why do we see the modern borders of the Russian Federation and CIS countries instead of the Soviet Union? In the Fallout universe, the USSR never dissolved and lasted until the Great War of 2077.
-
The Mediterranean Sea: And most importantly, what happened to the Mediterranean? It’s filled with the same green color as the land, just like the Black, Caspian, and Baltic seas. Could the Atlantropa project have been implemented in the Fallout timeline?
Is there an in-game lore explanation for this? Or is it just lazy developers?
There is a weird pair of islands to the bottom right of Australia.
New Zealand?
Before looking it up, I could excuse that a few land masses resurfaced after the ocean got cooked a little
