Wheel - Part I

Currently, I am running a game in a world I've called Wheel. Here are some images from the most recent update:

Independent states of Wheel.

Climates of Wheel (Koppen classifications).

Cultures of Wheel.

I'll discuss these images and the research involved in following posts. For now, a brief explanation of the scale:
One hex is 36 miles across (1122.37 square miles).
The first line shows 100 miles.
The second shows 500 miles.
The third shows 1000 miles.
In total, from one end of the image to the other is around 3200 miles.
