Mudos is actually a small continent - I remember Lorne comparing it to a European country once, but I forget which one.
|
It was either Nicaragua or Nigeria. On OWF, Danny quotes it as Nigeria in early 2002, but in late 2004 Lorne said that if Abe is in Nicaragua, Stranger is in Australia. That makes no geographic sense given the dimensions of Mudos, but it makes me think the original size comparison was with Nicaragua, and Danny misquoted.

Yet, wouldn't the population of Mudokons be around maybe 1 million? I mean, Mudokons don't necessarily all work in Mudos, and I'm pretty sure there is a lot more facilities that we haven't seen yet.
|
The Quintology will leave Mudos. Mudos may originally have been defined by the Mudokon population, but since then I expect they will have naturally and by industrial intervention, spread beyond its borders.

One million is a very small population figure for a sapient species. Human cities frequently exceed that figure by themselves.
|
True, but there are tribal human cultures that are a lot smaller than Earth’s great cities, and are a lot similar to current Mudokons in terms of technology, lifestyle, and oppression. Also, since there are multiple sapient races on Oddworld, they can share their social advancements as though a collective, despite being separate species of lower numbers.

The Oddworld globe on the map depicts Mudos as an absolutely massive landmass.
|
True, but the map was created by Rob Brown who admits his maps are as much spiritual and reflective of personality as they are physically accurate. There are hints that Mudos has been promoted in terms of geographical size and importance, but until there’s any conclusive evidence, I will go with the physical area quoted by the creator of Oddworld.
I'll PM you my email address.
!Is it enough?
HMMM...
