Archanea/Valencia Speculation
In my SRS BZNS Valencia fanfic, I characterized Valencia as the New World, a place of maize, sweet potatoes, beans, and alpacas, as opposed to Archanea's Old World with its wheat/rice/nuts&chickpeas diet (and no alpacas).
Looky here.
If that's what everyone thinks it is, I'm having a good laugh down here on the floor. The resemblance wasn't as obvious with the actual FE2-era maps of Valencia.
Logical flaw here, though. It took Marth & Friends a solid year to fight the War of Heroes. The Civil War of Valencia all took place in the year 606, and the Peg Sisters had time to go there, fight in it, and get back in time for Est to marry Abel and help MyUnit train recruits in the FE12 Prologue. Which also takes place in 606. I'd followed Hitomi's line of speculation that Valencia therefore had to be tiny, about the size of the isle of Dolhr/Macedon. If these continents are the same size, well... not really buying the logistics here.
