The game map and the real map: what EU5 simplifies, sentence 2
The game's "empty" lands were full of people, its population numbers are historians' best guesses, and its flat map stretches the far north, so Scandinavia, Siberia and Greenland look bigger than they are.
Who acts: empty lands, population numbers, flat map, Scandinavia · What happens: be, stretch, look · To what, where: best guesses, far north
This is a sentence of the lesson «The game map and the real map: what EU5 simplifies» of the geography course of Mova's primary school. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (empty lands, population numbers, flat map, Scandinavia), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
