It also happens that Tiber Septim's Empire, had it been on Earth, would have been the 12th largest empire in the history of the world, just beating out the Ming and Eastern Han Empires. If you want to play around with how these sizes compare on a map of Earth, this site is insightful and amusing. I wish he would have recorded the entire process rather than erasing the 'wrong' calculations so we could better review the entire episode.ДЄs a result, Tamriel also increased in size, going from our original conclusion (which was about the size of India + Zambia + East Timor) to approximately the size of Australia - Egypt. Pfa0219 made a couple such corrections throughout the course of the thread. This is useful for thinking about planetary sizes. But over a week later it looks like he 'corrected' his calculations (again) due to a mistake(s) that he made, without explanation to what the mistake was, and now Nirn is a bit bigger than Mars (195.7 million km 2 vs 144.8 million km 2). Can't find the Encyclopedia Tamrielica entry right now.Д«y the end of my participation in that thread, the surface area of Nirn was approximately the size of Ganymede (95.6 million km 2 v 87.2 million km 2). At the time of the Nord Conquest, a Dwarven kingdom flourished in the north of Morrowind, the region now covered by the Vvardenfell volcano. On a clear day (an exceedingly rare event), the peak can be seen from Almalexia, 250 miles to the south. It is a small continent all to itself, riven from the rest of Morrowind by the remains of a colossal crater. The vast Volcano of Tamriel, this giant mountain dominates the north of Morrowind. Almelexia - Peak of Red Mountain 250 miles With some assumptions you can certainly put upper and lower bounds on the measures though.Д¤. If the sphere is small this makes distance measurements even more problematic.

With Nirn being a sphere, there is no perfect projection onto a flat map. The different official maps don't agree with each other on the shape of Tamriel.ДЈ. It shows the Almelexia - Peak of Red Mountain 250 miles distance is consistent with the distances measured in Daggerfall.Дў. Not official but good enough for what we're doing here. That map is a stitched together version of the official PGE3 maps, created by Zeph.
