How to use this prompt
"Bold dashed border line" is the cartography convention for political boundaries, and naming it explicitly prevents SDXL from drawing a solid wall or a natural river border instead. The three colour-coded realms are the key to a political map — flat muted colours for each territory keep the regions distinct without the saturated look that pushes SDXL toward a fantasy-poster aesthetic. The river forming part of the border is the realistic detail that grounds the map in medieval logic rather than arbitrary geometry. "Small blank rectangular areas beside each city" reserves label space, and the negative prompt's ban on text prevents invented kingdom names.
Variations to try
- Add a fourth island realm separated by a sea channel with a drawn fleet for an archipelago kingdom map
- Replace the desert with a volcanic region in deep red and a dragon icon for a high-fantasy political map
