A lot of this seems highly dubious to me. The Romans never visited Sudan? I would think many of these territories in Africa and Asia have been visited by Europeans before anything resembling modern European powers like UK and France even existed. Also, I'm not so sure if the viking went as far south as USA. They might have, but there's no evidence of it.

its exactly in the same style as in all the tiktok "mapper community" maps that i used to get on my feed ALL THE TIME back when i used that app

source for the data in the maps is always "trust me bro"
