A PoC Scion please? There is so much untapped potential here.

I don't think it's close enough in shape to Africa - more a tilted Europe, or simply the loose concept of Europe versus Othard's much closer geographical match to Asia. But there are the central fairytale forests, the frozen north (with Norse-mythology-themed dragons), the Near East and an island off the continent that is better placed to match Britain than Madagascar.

I'd say they're pretty damn close in shape. Obviously not 1:1, but much closer than I originally thought they were tbh.

Even the basic layout of forest and desert is fairly close. Ul'dah, Ala Mhigo, Gridania and Sharlayans colony all shift over to the map of Africa reasonably accurately, even Ishgard sort of makes sense, if you picture the Sahara as a frozen desert instead of a sandy one.

The main differences seem to be the lack of mountain ranges along the west/south of the Sahara, and Africa's complete lack of a sea of floating islands

Madagascar was just shifted to the other side of the continent.
