Do you think even in those days they thought it might be a bad idea. No, but seriously. If anyone does have some interesting, copyright free maps of Cornwall I'd be interested in using them as well.

The idea is that the Normans were defeated in 1066 and the unification of England that began under King Athelstan proved to be as temporary as other previous efforts to bring the whole of England (and later Britain) under one king. Over time, the boundaries of the Anglo-Saxon Heptarchy and the Celtic nations, which had previously been subject to fluctuations, eventually settled into a fixed pattern, much as the boundaries between the Home Nations of the UK did (Herefordshire was still part of Wales well into Tudor times, IIRC). The map represents what I think the boundaries might have looked like today. For more details, see http://alt-tolk...3wyvern.html, though this article is almost 10 years old and some of it makes me cringe a little when I read it now.

Ortelius makes clear his understanding that England, Scotland and Ireland were politically nominally at least separate in 1570 by the full title of his map: "Angliae, Scotiae et Hiberniae, sive Britannicar. insularum descriptio" which translates as "a description of England, Scotland and Ireland, or the British Isles", additionally many maps from this period show Cornwall as a separate nation, most notably Mercator. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Isles
