World Map presented in History of Suikoden dvd

[John Layfield]

Indeed. Even more so if the nation took up a large chunk of the landmass. It also seems there's a small part of it yet to be uncovered.

I know the text is small and blurry but is it possible even to get a vauge idea of what it may say on the landmass? I'm assuming it's something as delightfully helpful as "Western Continent" but some confirmation would be nice.

Another potentially extremely interesting piece of text is located on the small chain of islands located to the north of the large island off the western coast of Toran. It's impossible to view but there must be someway to find a clearer/larger image of that map.

Also, what's the deal with El-Eal always being sperated from the main continent? There also seems to be some text there which may shed some light on that.

Slightly touched up and given a closer look.

I am indeed falling in love with having a full on world map. I noticed the placement of the Island Nations was way off but figured that considering Konami change the location of places all the time I'd just keep quiet incase I'd missed something.

Gaien and the "Bannna Island", that huge Western Continent, the Soutern Continent (below Island Nations) and the one to the east of that (keep in mind I don't want any of this revealed if it's Suikoden V information even though I personally know some of the places let's not mention it incase some people don't want it revealed) and various other "large" (I say large as they're larger than the Islands in the Island Nations) Islands floating around the place - they could be all featuring in future Suikoden games.

If someone could translate them for us I would happily give them my kidney. I'd give them my appendix but I kinda lost that one.

You guessed it right, it just says "Western Continent."

The small text to the right side below Toran says "Kanakan"

The smal text around El-Eal says "El-Eal Fortress."

The small island to the west of Toran is listed as "Black Dragon Island." This doesn't refer to the large island though.

I like how there's more pieces of land on the map that we haven't explored yet; notably, that giant chunk of land to the west of the Zexen Confederation. Looks like we have many more places to visit, folks.

You mean the western continent I've been discussing on and off for two pages? XD

There's a separate island to the southeast of Toran and slightly north and east of Kooluk. There's small text above the island that reads "Kanakan."

[Obel Soldier]

Haha! Yeah, that's the giant chunk of land I was talking about. Talking about it is cool, but talk isn't enough for me. I wanna step foot onto that giant chunk of land, explore the area, smell the fresh local air, check out the cute girls, and eat their food. You know... do what I usually do in Suikoden games. Hopefully, I'll find another steamed bun restaurant, but I seriously doubt it. Maybe I can drop by and say what's up to Albert, give him a high five or something. Maybe someday, you think? In another future Suikoden title.

One thing I just noticed was that landmass to the southeast. Doesn't it look like a smaller version of the giant landmass west of the Zexen Confederation?

I think I remember something about Kanakan. Nothing groundbreaking, mind you. I think Elenor's favorite choice of wine came from there.

So now we know that it's an island, and the people there make some good liquor.

You know, maybe the world has actually had a geographical shift after 140 or so years after SIV? Maybe that's a little too soon for a drastic change in geography regarding El Eal, but that's the only thing I can think of. Maybe they give a hint in Suikoden V?

maybe it's just Konami's crappy continunity at play like usual. It's finally good to know where everything is, especially Black Dragon Island.

Well, the map doesn't show the complete world of Suikoden. Essencially for the north. For what I get of the borders, Harmonia should have much more land to the north (it seems around Toran's size in the map) and Falena looks huge compared to it. Also, the Eastern landmass seems everything but its total, unless the "edge of the world" that Templton wants to find is there.
Hell, this Eastern Landmass seems to intrigue even more! Of course, that huge Western Continent is also very intriguing. My bet would be a huge nation vs 4 small nations there. Think of the possible set ups for future Suikodens!
