It's 'old barovia' contains Sanguinia.

Where Sanguinia is there is the depths of the Shadow Rift

That map is bogus. Sanguinia was never part of the Core. Borca is spelled wrong as well. It's also got the borders all wrong and the towns are all in the wrong place.

I think it's supposed to be the original name of Borca before Barovia entered the mists. The Gazetteer calls is Borjia or something. (an obvious play on the name Borgia)

That being said, those other nations wouldn't have bordered Borjia during the time before the Mists took the land. Also, I believe Borjia and Barovia were technically one domain and Ravenloft was not yet named Castle Ravenloft. It still carried it's Terg name.

Or the person who made the map just misspelled it :P

Bit more accurate, if cluttered. By no means definitive.



And below I've very crudely outlined the general area represented on the server with my MS paint skills.

This is by far the best map of Barovia to be found anywhere, period. It's by Jester of The Fraternity of Shadows:

I forgot about Jester. His maps of the Core are great:

I for one would welcome more of Barovia being added to the server, but I know you devs are busy with lots of other things.  ;)

Wow, and this is just after I spent a few hours yesterday editing a sourcebook map of Borca to have all of that extra information, and realizing the base map is really bad and that I'd have to re-draw it. There's a few things that big map is missing though, so I'll redraw the Borcan map at some point to not be bad and fill it with information.

Krezk is actually part of the server also.
