So I'm writing a setting that is a modern fantasy(that surprise, doesn't take place on earth). What should I look out for as I'm writing this?
Is it ok to name things literal, like "yellow river" or "silver mountains"?

There are already aptly descriptive names in this world.
>>
>>54766284
Yeah, 90% of real world place names originate from standard descriptions of the land, you just don't realize it because old languages and whatnot. The other ten percent are stuff where someone named it after themselves, like Jamestown.

This is it, boys. I'm hanging up my dice bag. Roleplaying is increasingly feeling more like a chore than a hobby, even more so when I am the one in the GM's seat. I've always liked running more than playing, and that's hard when you're forced to realize that you were never really that good at GMing to begin with. Whatever GMing skills I had have rotted away after so much time away from the table, and it's becoming more and more obvious every time I go back only to be disappointed by myself again and again. I've always been so afraid of railroading that my games ended up with no direction and no momentum, but the worst thing is I keep making the same mistakes. As a player, I'll always be a backseat GM whether I want to or not; even if I stay silent out of respect for the actual GM, my ego will whisper sweet lies to me about how I could run the game better, draining every bit of my fun while I know that, in reality, I couldn't even begin hack it. It's not fun anymore. It's time for me to move on.
Catch you on the flip side, fa/tg/uys. Stay awesome.

Continued discussion of the setting inspired by the post-apocalyptic medieval America mod for CK2, "After the End."
TL;DR
>Medieval knights, vikings, and steppe hordes roaming the territory of the United States
>A quasi-Roman cult based around the Founding Fathers and some subsequent presidents
>Minnesota Vikings become actual Vikings

ITT we talk about a truly apocalyptic setting where people have to literally rebuild their civilization -- worse than the collapse of the Roman Empire. It's been a few hundred years, some remnants of the Old World survived (like Mt. Rushmore) but they're seen as the remnants of Gods who came before. Myths of Old America have been passed down and warped over time. Castles, fortresses, and knightly battle cover eastern sea-board while competing hordes of "cowboys" and plainspeople roam the West.
In the old capitol, a cult has arisen, offering worship to a pantheon of Founders: Washington, Jefferson, Hamilton...

How would I justify a collection of city states moving from the gold standard to a more advanced economic system.
I want to shift the economy in my setting from being based on the gold standard to being more market based.
Setting is a collection of city states mostly, with a few small nations and one more powerful empire that is quite removed from the rest of the setting with more advanced tech that raids the rest in search of slaves and sacrifices
( basically Aztecs merged with Vikings using conquistador tech in a mostly Bronze Age setting)

Put not!petrol in your setting. A ressource that is absolutely vital to everybody and has only a few productors.
Your empire does not need it that much or they would have colonized the sources already
>>
>>54762162>implying the gold standard isn't the most advanced method of exchange>implying the gold standard isn't the most market based currency, whatever this actually means
>Setting is a collection of city states mostly
This will be difficult, because the only way someone would accept any currency that is not the most common and convenient has to be forced to do so, so you need a central power. I can only imagine that would work if you establish a different metal or other commonly used good that will serve as a substitute. Before gold was used, people would trade cows or nails out of metal.
