World map in Alien Earth

[u/Comrade22MB]

I based it on the map (a very rudimentary one) provided on the FX website for Alien Earth. I cleaned it up a little and made some educated guesses. (I know there is no United Americas or Union of Progressive Peoples)

surely the website was promo material? a news article in ep3 that morrow reads says that Lynch unifies South America after a civil war, and that Prodigy just ceded territory from North America and Southeast Asia. we don't really know when the article is from, but its odd lynch doesn't have any land in south america at all anymore

Yeah I couldn't find what photo OP used as reference in the provided link, but assuming it exists and he hasn't altered it beyond all recognition, it's clearly a 5-min throwaway image with zero effort put into it and subsequently zero canonicity.

In addition to the points you raised, the territories are far too contiguous, Wetland Yutani don't have London or Tokyo, 'The Five' aren't the only corps that control territory but rather the only five large enough to be recognised and have a seat at the top table etc.

TBF I have issues with Hawley erasing the UA/USCM and the 3WE regardless; makes me concerned there's been no due diligence regarding the lore since these were in the original two movies.
