TL;DR – Every single feature of Civilization 6 (at time of posting) in one map, this time with Lakes, Seas, and Oceans

Article –
This week we got the latest update to
Civilization VI: Gathering Storm, and along with the boosted Industrial Zones
and several pages of patch notes there was the announcement of the game adding
water features to its growing list of geographical features. We have mapped Civ
VI in the past as part of our Map-It Project, and I
am always a completionist, so I thought it would be quick to add in a couple of
lakes. Well three solid days of work later and it was not the quick job I
expected, but it was a rewarding one as I got to learn more about the geography
of the Earth while brushing up on my Māori.
Now as always, a couple of notes before
we start, first the Civilization boundaries on the map are based more on
clarity than anything else, so in most cases, they conform to their modern
counterparts. We have also worked using the commonly implemented political
borders, not necessarily what nations claim, and this means making some
judgement calls which you will see below. Also, while all attempts have been
made to make sure that everything is accurately placed, putting this together
meant working from multiple different sources, and map projections, and as
such, no matter how much you try there might be some slight discrepancies here
and there.
We will be mostly going over the new additions and changes to the map in this update, if you want to learn more about some of the location choices that we made you can find more detail in our First Full Civilization Big Map and out Gathering Storm Update Map.
Finally, after the break there will be a lot of large images, so now is the time to check that you are on WiFi and are not using Mobile Data. Also a quick shout out to sonicmyst, God of Kings, Eagle Pursuit, Zaarin and SeelingCat over at the Civfanatics Forum for helping me with some of the obscure lakes I was having trouble locating.
