Hmm, I've never mapped out cities, or even their locations (except
capital cities), but I have worked out some ideas about the *typical*
city-plan.  But what I do like is *historical* maps.  I have a whole
series of maps showing the rise and fall of the Holy Republic, along
with what went on elsewhere on the Continent, shifting borders and the
splitting-off of the Trad Autonomous Region from the Sanle Republic.

I also have maps of dialectal features in the Kassí homeland, such as
how <ty> or <ky> is pronounced, which regions have dropped certain
genders (there's even a small region where genders 3, 4, and 6 have all
been lost, leaving only 1, 2, 5, 7), which has come in handy with
designing inter-dialectal borrowings.
