This started as an in-game handout for my players years ago. They were interested in travel and exploration, so they found an atlas of the world in someone's library. After sharing it with another DM, I realized it could be made into a very useful reference for anyone playing in the official 5E setting.
It's primarily focused on the geography, rather than specific people and organizations, so it can be used for any version of D&D during any time-period. It doesn't go into much detail on all the various locations -- the goal is an overview to help people get their bearings of the various lands and their main features.
It's actually been on DMs guild for many years -- I just thought I would share it here for all of the new players coming into the game, or even older players who just want a nice overview of the of the continent.
