Notable instances of world maps near Spam Central. These maps are large enough for users to comment on individual countries or engage in geopolitical roleplaying.

Yosicat's Map[edit | edit source]

A hand-drawn map located at the top right of Spawn. It was 9 coordinates long, 15 coordinates wide and anyone was free to edit or vandalize. Chaos ensues, mostly consisting of users redrawing borders or posting country banter/jokes.

The map was created by Yosicat during August of 2022 and would remain a beloved part of Spawn until its destruction on October 17th of that same year.

Notable events[edit | edit source]

  • Brazilian invasion of Portugal (by YWOT's Brazilian userbase)
  • The collapse of Portugal and Spain from repeated invasions, resulting in the amputation of the Iberian Peninsula from France and the rest of Europe.
  • Revival of the Soviet Union (possibly also the Finnish Empire)
  • Poland split between Germany and USSR
  • Mongol (Hungary) invasion of Romania every 12 hours
  • Belgium and The Netherlands are being united for some reason. Someone must've felt strongly about that?
  • Brazilians locked in maximum security containment for aggressive/destructive behavior. They still somehow manage to break free, Portuguese text can be seen littered on the map afterwards.

/~yosicat/WorldMap[edit | edit source]

After the destruction of the first map, Yosicat created another mapping project on one of his subworlds. The new map was ~30 coordinates wide and ~17 coordinates long, and linked to songs associated with each nation/region.

Progress on this project seemed to have been halted by 2023.

TO HELL WITH THIS WORLD AND IT'S MYRIAD PEOPLES!

Why must you pus-brained, smart-asses persist in your senseless curiosity concerning this world into which you are born into in pain and into horrifying agonies and into maddening confusion?

What good did anyone ever derive from knowing the dimensions of the Great Norway Maelstrom, or the current price of slave-youths in Siam, or the location of the mythical Bumfuck Arizona?

Hear me dear readers: you need know nothing of the world. How I wish I did not know anything about it!

Suffice to say that it is a vast vale of tears full to bursting with pain, horror, and cruelty; that every settlement of man is a warehouse of depravity; that every inch of countryside is an ancient and overflowing graveyard; that this magnificent globe we tread which seems so lovely and full of wonders at first blush, is upon closer inspection, an antichamber to Hell itself; then when one leaves the Eastern sea-board, things are even worse!

Let history crumble into dust! Why should I bother? If anybody had died so that I could be happy, then I would be even more unhappy, because I do not want to build my life on a graveyard! I cannot understand why some have shed blood for us, the gape-jawed half-wits who call ourselves its "inheritors," and it would be a great irony if we could determine that they were already a lot happier than we are.

Why should I live in history, or worry about the social and cultural problems of the age? I am surprised that some people study the past when the whole of history strikes me as null and void. It is silly to pity those who lived in times we don't like, who did not know of anime, Christianity, and the discoveries of modern science.

I grow weary of culture, history, and especially of this Earth!

Let me live the life of every species, and in every habitable planet! Let me try out the entire spectrum of nature! Only a cosmic adventure of this kind, would reawaken me the desire to become part of it again!

The Janitor's Map[edit | edit source]

In September of 2022, The Janitor used a script to create a much larger world map Southeast of Spawn. It extends from [X: 0 Y: -9] to [X: 17 Y: -17].

Since that time they have consistently repaired their creation every time it suffered significant damage. A copy of the Janitor’s world map was also added to the subpage /mapoftheworld.

As of April 2025 the map is still being repaired, making it one of the longest lasting objects in Spam Central at 2 years and 7 months old. During that time it has undergone countless cycles of destruction and rebirth, creating an entire history of war, art, and general commentary from users. The vast majority of these events have been lost to time, however, with no records of them existing.
