Description
I noticed there was no detailed map of the TaleSpin World anywhere to be found. The Show came out in 1990, and there are fans of the show of many ages. I have always been a big fan of the show. It is a world where everything revolves around flying airplanes. The time period has been described as 1940. The world has a lot of interesting places, and many funny names. It is like a parody on the real world. A world of Fun Adventures. This map took me over 20 hours to make, over the past month. It was not easy to compile it all together so it makes the most sense.Much of the stories in the tv show take place in Cape Suzette and Louie's island (often spelt as just "Louies"). They are located within the square doted lines. This area has a consistent look throughout the show:

Map from E03 "Plunder & Lightning Part 3": taekwondo-reference.webs.com/o…
And there have been shots of a map shown in more then one episode that is more of a world map:

I also used this great resource, and I would like to thank the TaleSpin Source Page for such detailed notes: www.animationsource.org/tssour…
To make it all make sense, I had to find a logical way to fit it all together. And there was a way, and it was nice to see it all come together.
Notes: The world map, much like the "Narnia" and "Lord of the Rings" maps, is not a continuous map, where you fly out one end and end up coming out the other. In a sense it is kind of mystical that way. And I am fine with that. There is a discrepancy in episode 65 "Flying Dupes" that could not be accounted for when making this map. They point to Thembria as an island near Cape Suzette, but the Country is always cold and Cape Suzette is remarked as being a place where it never snows. So they must be further apart. Also Thembra has so many locations that it must be a rather large Country like Russia and not a small island. So, I decided to make Thembra part of the large Continent and make the other island Geezerland (which is a location with many old people and would make sense to be more south like Florida). I also made the map look like it was from the 1940's time period, to add more realism to it.
Additional Note (10/7/2021): I was bothered for a while that the Aridia pyramid was lopsided, so I fixed it. Now I am much happier with the artwork, and I hope you will be too.
Interesting Fact: Cape Suzette is part of a larger Country, much like the United States in many ways. But the Country is never mentioned in the entire show. So fans came up with the name Usland. Thembria is thought of as THEM-bria, so there must be an US-land. This is where Usland comes from, and I did decide to add that to the map, for the fans.
Hope you enjoy

Really, hehe. That is great. You know if I was a millionaire and had a million dollars to spare, it would be cool to see if I could make a real Sea Duck. I bet it would be possible. Then I could have my own adventures around the real world.
