First of all, I'm not good at English, so please forgive me for speaking with Google Translate.

How to install?

1. Download .hmap files

KoreaJapan_Huge8_v1.02.hmap

KoreaJapan_Kor3Jap5_v1.02.hmap

KoreaJapan_Seven_v1.04.hmap

( _Huge8.hmap files are started by 4 players in Korea and 4 players in Japan. And the _Kor3Jap5.hmap  file starts with 3 players from Korea and 5 players from Japan.)

2. Move .hmap files to
Users/{YOURPCNAME}/Documents/Humankind/Maps 

(If you don't have a Maps folder, create one!)

3. Start new game, and check custom map.

Mod features

Korea

And Japan

In one map!

And, as we all know, the Earth is round.

So if you keep going from Hokkaido, you can reach Korea.

LOL

And this mod has the following balancing points:

1. Occupying 5 adjacent territories including the starting point will give you a sufficient amount of strategic resources.

(2 Horse/ 2 Copper / 2 Iron / 2 Saltpetre / 2 Coal / 1 Oil / 1 Aluminum / 1 Uranium for each players)

This avoids a silly bug in vanilla games where even if you rule the globe, you can't run your tanks due to running out of oil.

2. To solve an issue where naval forces would not be able to siege when the coastline is completely filled with city blocks, 

all islands and provinces have a single wasteland attached to them.

(This might be annoying, but think of it as a kind of landing pad to prevent silly bugs!)

Starting as-is in single-player mode, players start out in the Tokyo region.

If you would like to start from a different starting point, briefly activate online mode (red circle in the photo) and press the join button to enter the desired spot.
