Can somebody make modern maps of North and South Korea and Armenia?

That is certainly permissible if you'd like to do so.

More interesting than a map of Armenia would be a map of the entire Caucasus region, IMO. I did a draft
here.
Korean war would be interesting too.

I think that a map of the Caucasus, and the Korean war would be great, but that map that you posted is way too bright and stuff. make the countries darker colors.

Yes you can make a map. In a nutshell it goes like this: You design the gameplay, draw the images, listen to criticism, update, wait, debate, fight, wait, listen to criticism, update, wait, have a nervous breakdown, debate, update, wait... then one day 6-12 months later it is finally finished, then you get to wait for it to be uploaded to the site, after which you get to debate with the actualy players about further updates that need to be done.
You should try, it's a lot of fun!

Well, the first thing you need is something like Photoshop or GIMP. After that, find a map that you like and essentially trace it. Draw in your borders, ect, and figure out how you want the bonus system to work. I've done step by step working with new mapmakers before, so once you get a program, preferably photoshop, I can give you a hand in working through it.

Sure, it's only a draft to show my ideas about the bonuses. Maybe I'll do a new draft some time, because this one seems too obnoxious to be taken seriously here. But if you want to take it on as a learning project, be my guest! I'll be happy to give you all the advice you want on the background of this map.
