    I said before that they were usually good about keep area names the same/relatively close to where they were before, but I neglected to mention that Mun-Tuy is way, way off. That said, I added a couple more to the original post:

    Nanawa Mines

    The connection between Central Thanalan and Northern Thanalan changed drastically in 2.0. What happened to Nanawa Mines? Is Nanawa Mines what the mine/train tracks lead into? Or is Nanawa Mines completely caved in, and the pass leading from Central Thanalan to Northern Thanalan is all that Ul'dah dug up of Nanawa Mines in order to pass through? The map seems to refer to the entire construction area as "Nanawa Mines", rather than indicating any entrance (though the zone line is quite close, and in 1.0 Bluefog was just a bit north of where Nanawa Mines would have been).

    Mun-Tuy Cellars

    How did the Cellars move from North Shroud in 1.0 to being the bridge between East Shroud and South Shroud in 2.0!? I understand some areas being moved around slightly (Snakemolt being east of where it was originally... it's not too crazy to think the people would just use names they were familiar with and apply them to "new" areas instead of making up new names, after the landscape changed), but an entire underground section moved clear across the forest? Mun-Tuy Cellars clearing bridging two zones does lend some weight that Nanawa Mines will never be used as more than a zone line connection, though. Taking another look at the maps, the (new) Mun-Tuy Cellars are HUGE, because there's is a LONG distance between East Shroud and South Shroud according to the 1.0 layout.

    Edit: Corrections.
