RULES:

  1. All posts must be maps, any meta posts should be tagged with [META] in the title.

  2. No hate speech: racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, etc...

  3. No obscene/NSFW content - maps may look sexy, but not in that kind of way.

  4. Maps shouldn't be of a very small resolution. As long as they are readable, its fine.

SUGGESTIONS:

*I strongly suggest that sources be included with any self-made maps, it's not mandatory, but it would be nice!

Elevation Map of Japan (lemmy.ml)

Japan has a very interesting geography. On one hand you have massive mountains that are very steep, and suddenly you drop to these extremely-flat plains that are close to sea-level.

On the central part of Honshu island (the biggest Japanese island), there is the Kansai plain, the largest city here is Osaka. Towards the east, you can see the Kanto plain which is also home to a massive population, and the largest city in the world by metropolitan population -- Tokyo (pop. 37,274,000).

The vast majority of Japan's 100+ million people live in these relatively small and flat plains.

For anyone wondering, the small red spot in North-Western Florida is a nature refuge which contains some extremly rare species of plants.

As you can see, the Green Belt zones are the only things keeping England from becoming one big & continous urban sprawl of cities from South London all the way to Liverpool. :office building: :deciduous tree: :office building:
