Map of the neighboring continent of Roumarth.

Narthatheia is a group of islands a little larger than Iceland. There has to be more–
So I made a continent based on Europe. It was always intended that this world was our own from the very dawn of man around 35,000 years ago. Robert E. Howard would put Conan somewhat later after the fall of Atlantis.

Here, Aztlan is going strong but lies a treacherous two month voyage to the west. So Narthatheians mostly look east to Roumarth. The original shapes never quite seemed right so I found some Pleistocene maps of Europe and followed them. This is during one of the warm periods during the Ice Age where the ice receded a little in this hemisphere. The western hemisphere has far more extensive glaciation.

So this provides a Britain (Brythia) attached to mainland Europe (Roumarth) and with the Mediterranean an enclosed inland sea. The northern coasts of the Middle Sea are ruled by the fading Lundran Empire (created by a friend and used with his permission). Waltheia and Pentca on the western shore of the continent broke off the Lundran empire when it came under fierce attack by the armies of the Gomlar about a century ago. (There was a D Great Riverland and Land of Two Rivers. Aerthistarn is a great dwarven empire that broke off the Lundran empire in ages past.

The Egyptian gods rule Ptah and the Sumerian gods rule Suria. There is trade and travel through Lundran intermediaries. Much is the same about the lands off the map to the south and those that lie to the west. If anything the only lands with most contact are those to the far east, the fabled nine kingdoms of Sinesia. The Gomlar maintain direct links to them and employ many Sinesians in their empire.
