okay, made some design development. need to work on opacy a bit and connect the pics with each other properly, but i think i am getting nearer to the final result.
i mostly took pics from important events (30 years war, hambacher celebration), persons in german history (friedrich barbarossa, karl the great), symbols of german national awakening 1840 ("germania" paintings and monuments) and some nice german architecture (framework buildings and something else) to make the map more "atmospheric" and interesting to look at. i think thismap has better design, the other germany map is a bit too cheesy.
i aimed to give the map a rustic/vintage/gotic/late middle ages till 1900 look.
