Plan Nation Expansion Using Live Border Data
Analyze Current Nation Boundaries
Zoom into your nation's territory on the world map. The mod displays live nation borders and capital markers, showing you exactly where your nation ends and neighbors begin. Identify gaps, weak points, or expansion opportunities.
Check Town Join Ranges
Circular range indicators around towns show the area where new towns can join that nation. Use this to:
- Spot unclaimed land within your join range
- Plan new town locations for optimal coverage
- Identify where rival nations might expand next
Review Neighboring Nations
Examine adjacent nation borders and their town distributions. This helps you:
- Predict expansion pressure from neighbors
- Find natural defensive positions
- Locate strategic buffer zones
Cross-Reference with Terrain
The mod layers EarthMC squaremap tiles beneath claim data, so you can see real geography. Plan expansions around mountains, rivers, or coastlines that provide natural defenses or resources.
Track Changes Over Time
Regularly check the same regions to watch how borders shift. This reveals which nations are growing aggressively and where conflicts may emerge, informing your diplomatic and military strategy.
