    I made a quick "translation" of the current world map, but I m not finished yet. If someone find some errors or new names, please let me know ^^.

    Only mistake I can see right now, is that you put Corvos instead of Dorvos.

Why bother expanding towards space if there's land next to you that you haven't yet explored/conquered?
    Besides the sensible meta-reasons explained by Moose, and the Calamitous re-geography-ing explained by Razor, we should also consider that maps (as would have been accurate during Allagan reign) quite probably do exist, but they are in non-paper (tomestone) format or otherwise very well hidden. Five thousand years is a long time for paper records, and they are not likely to have survived unless kept in sealed, magicked, or otherwise protected locations.

    To draw a real-world parallel, we Earthans have shifted a great amount of our record-keeping to electronic formats in the last few decades, and books from even just a few hundred years ago might require careful preservation and handling to keep them from crumbling on contact.
