Seas of Magic
Seas OF Magic
It is 1654 AEF and the world is in the midst of a great change that has reached around the globe. Technology and science have advanced at blinding speeds, led by the technocractic NWO council of New Avalon. These new advances have spread to many of the great powers of the world, and triggered a similar burst of magical development as magic centered powers race to keep up and develop their own equivalents and counters. While some of these new advancements have become widely spread, the majority of the world remains open to colonization and imperialism by the great powers as explorers go forth.

Please note that there are also various flying islands floating around, though larger ones are pretty much stationary. Nations can be placed on the sky-lands.
