Hello Everybody
this is a small side project.
I was curious how the world looked like before the end of the last Ice Age.
- Ocean Level are about 125 m below todays Water Level.
- To see the difference from then to now all landmass submerged today is marked with Sandstone in the second picture.
- Basicly all what is yellow in the map is today 0 - 125m below the sea level
- Submerged landmaß is 38480431 Blocks which is a loss of 16,4% of previous landmass or 24,46 Mio. squarekilometer in the
Real World.
- Of today's population about 50% living in Coastal Areas, the sea level rise with melting of last Ice Age with of course fewer
population was proably very devasting.
- The map itself is 21600x10800 Blocks about 1:1600 and 1:1850 Scale of Earth or 1m equals 1,6 km for x and 1,85 km for y.
For those who like to play around with this earth map just use the link below to download the worldpainter file (its so much more smaller then minecraft map exported and give you more choices for editing.)
Some Elevation :
Mt. Brocken, Germany 1142m = 15 blocks
Mt. Ras Dashen, Ethiopia 4550m = 70 Blocks (z=180)
Mt. Baker, USA 3286m = 46 Blocks

Every ice age it looked "close" to that. explains also pretty good how archaic man, homo erectus and homo sapien move so easy out of africa , into austrialia, oceania and america.
Some of the south islands will sink as I did not matched it yet with the different tilt of planets axis.
Any like already said :
This current version is just the base (mercator earth 2015 with lowered sea lvl by 125 m every where)
I do not claim for ,myself it looked like that.
Even version 1.000 if I ever arrive there wound be anything close to 100% accuracy, but I am sure the effort and process I put myself through will lead to more realistic result then my pure imagination would. If like more imagine the how the world look like at the end of the last ice age then you could check out my 11500 BC project. It has much fever variables in consideration than this project.
sry, I cant gasp what you want to know?!
For modern Cities google maps together with this map or one of the pictures in the downloadfolder might be your friends. I am not sure which city location you like to find. Like Theran or Osaka?!
