@shiMusa2 Thank you. Because the river flows through several countries that have different spellings for it, I thought it best to use the English exonym: Rhine. Same thing for the Danube.

@MtnMapper There is Basel, right at the 3 nations border and in German, the river is called "Rhein". Great map!

@MtnMapper Beautiful work. A few names seem to be translated into English where perhaps they shouldn't be. 1) St. Petersburg -> Sankt-Peterburg 2) Lake Region -> Järvi-Suomi Also Gulf of Finland looks weird translated, but I think it is the correct choice.

@starugby85 Merci! I found "Hauteur de la Gatine" in the Times Comprehensive World Atlas. Will check other sources to verify it.

@MtnMapper I’m not shure to « hauteur de la gatine » in France. The Gatine is a little local region and the montaine massif is the armorican. You can notice the specificity of the « Pays Poitevin » maybe 😁 (sorry for my english) 😅

@MtnMapper This looks very neat but it lists a wrong name for the Polish lake Dargin - Dargejmy.

@MtnMapper Hej mate, Wzgórze na Katarynkach - never heard of that. Wieżyca is the highest peak in Polish Pomerania.

@MtnMapper @youwillmakemaps świdna zatoka - idk, such thing doesn’t exist imo jezioro dargejmy - i guess that you mean Dargin, but i.e. Mamry is much bigger and much better known.

@cthecache Thank you. The updated map will have the shorter of the two corrected names that you proposed. :)

@MtnMapper There's a typo under Vatnajökull in Iceland, 'Hvannadalshnúkur' -- missing an 'ú' but you can also pick between two spellings, 'Hvannadalshnúkur' or 'Hvannadalshnjúkur'

@MtnMapper Great work! Here are some orthographic errors that caught my eye: BALIKESIR -> BALIKESİR İZMIR -> İZMİR DIYARBAKIR -> DİYARBAKIR Izmir Korfezi -> İzmir Körfezi Gulluk Korfezi -> Güllük Körfezi Gokova Korfezi -> Gökova Körfezi Fethiye Korfezi -> Fethiye Körfezi

@MtnMapper Great map. Small hint: “Großer Feldberg“ is close to Frankfurt (in the west) in the taunus and not that far west.

@MtnMapper PrychornomOrska Nyzovyna (missing 'o'), liman should be lyman. That's all I saw, everything else is good. :)

@MtnMapper Here’s a missing waterway. You miss the Volga-Baltic waterway/canal.It connects Vytegra river with Ozero Beloye in Russia. It’s a really important artery. Great work!

@avtansa As space allowed, I arbitrarily included a sprinkling of cities for reference. In a densely populated continent like Europe, adding every significant city would crowd out the physical features, the main point of the map.

@MtnMapper Ukrainian labels are transliterated inconsistently, like hora/gora (should be Hoverla rather than Goverla), plus Zolota Lypa, Ikva has no need in apostophe, Prypyat' doesn't have an 's' in the name... Good job tho!

@Asparagvss Thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately, there is not enough room to include a label for Munții Retezatl, so I am showing the highest peak, Peleaga, as the next best thing.

@MtnMapper A suggestion, i think that on the map, specifically in Romania, Southern, S-W Transylvania, you could replace the "Munții Poiana Ruscă" and put "Munții Retezat" a bit to the south, near the Peleaga peak. Why i am making this suggestion is because the Retezat Mountains are higher-
