Audonia-centric world map
The Alshar-centric world map is a world map which places Alshar in the middle rather than to the far east as is traditional on western maps. Such maps were common in the region prior to the west's attempt to standardise the world map however the map still sees some use locally. Sometimes seen as a political statement, the map is said to have a profound psychological impact on those who view it. Nowadays the map is seen mostly as a novelty outside of Alshar.
An Alshar-centric world map once hung in every Metzettan classroom, though Emperor Daeku discouraged this practice in an attempt to curry favour with western powers some rebellious citizens characterised as "asskissing."
