Description
How to create a Universe? This is a question quite interesting for the most of young authors, as personally I am. I've spent about 6 years to create Five Galaxies, also I created world of Pangaea and Worlds of Ethernion. Well, hope some day I will be published, but this moment is quite far.Any way, I've gained some experience how to make this process - of creation - as easy and painless, as possible.
This is not a all-in-one guide, I'd say it is a technical guide.
Enjoy

Since my characters generally have Latin, Greek, Celtic, or Germanic based names, I was trying to do the same with the towns, countries, cities, etc as well. I'm just having difficulty with that part, do you have any tips for me to make it easier?

Hmmm, I suppose the best way to do so would be to use normal terms in corresponding translation. I'm not a master-linguist, so can't give really deep tips, but I'd say using corresponding vocabularies would do. Then you just pick any usual term - say, Big Hill, or River Bank, or Icy Peaks, whatever - and translate it to the language you need. Bigh Hill will be GroΓe HΓΌgel. Mix that and you'll get smth. like Grosshugel. Quite German )) Same to Latin and Greek. Hardest case for me is Celtic - I really don't know are there any sourses on this language available. I suppose, yes.

Och, but I suck at tables... Ah, well. For the sake of my world, I'll try!

Ah, you're from Ukraine! I thought your English was a little odd, but considering that it's likely not your first language, it's actually very good!
Nicely done!

Thank you. I have very few time for practice (in fact - dA is quite a good place for that), and I know English mostly from games
