First Chime – De Facto World Map as of January 2026
Disclaimer: This map is not meant to offend any person or group of people; it is simply a reflection off the facts as best as I could understand them. If you notice any mistakes, notify me in the comments and I will fix them to the best of my ability.
Most of the maps that you will come across today do not display what is going on beneath the surface of internationally recognized borders; however, this map shows the de facto (meaning ‘in fact’ in Latin), borders of the world as of January 1st, 2026.
Features:
>Guerilla groups
>Civil Wars
>Invasions
>Alliances
-Note: The Rio Pact and COFA do not include the US, for the US plays a more major role in the NATO alliance, and every nation can only be a part of one alliance
>Over 2,000 Cities
-Note: Every nation has one capital, up to two cores (its most populous cities), and the rest are uncored
>Autonomous Provinces
-Note: Autonomous provinces that were mostly or entirely obscured by a mountain range or guerilla/invading force were not included
>Other puppets (Invading forces such as Israel into Syria or RSF into South Sudan and South Ossetia/Abkhazia)
>Some Tribes (Brazil & Papua New Guinea; more might come)
>Flags
-Note: ALL of the custom flags were made by me
>Terrain
-Note: Unless the scenario flops, more terrain + islands will be added
>Acurrate GDP
