Here's a link to the world map for "The Day After Ragnarok" -- a "Savage Worlds" sourcebook.
I love this map.

I really can't help but say this: I despised the rulers of Iran and North Korea long before it was popular.
Not bad. A little more real world than I expected, having assumed that a lot more of the world would be wastelands.
Monster Island? Science City 14? Interesting.

Not to mention the Jewish People's Republic and the Iowa Soviet.
The map doesn't show how screwed up the weather is. There's an aborted Fimbulwinter going on that the world might be recovering from. So there are lousy crop yields and lots of starvation -- even in a lot of places not immediately screwed up by the death of the Midgard Serpent. The USSR has the advantage of Frost Giant allies who are warding off all kinds of climatic problems. Australia and New Zealand were lucky enough to be far enough away that things don't seem so bad. Yet.

Great. I live right in the middle of the Serpent Curtain. I guess this doesn't bode well for me?

No, it doesn't bode well at all.
Of course, my home is in the High Plains, which is described as, "...once more the Great American Desert, a windswept taiga of giant beasts and desperate drifters."

Almost three quarters of the continental US and Canada (but not Mexico or South America, bizarrely) are destroyed and the UK and Western Europe are covered by the dead corpse of a huge rotting snake, but the USSR dominates the globe.
Apparently somebody has a grudge against the free world. Or is there something about the background that I'm missing...?

Yeah, it's a pretty nasty world. The Soviets look to be in real good shape, and only a badly reduced British Empire is facing it.
I've noticed that the mega-tsunami produced when a coil of the dying Midgard Serpent slammed into the Atlantic does seem to be oddly directional. Almost as if the Serpent was thinking, "I'm going down, but I'm taking the bastard who had me nuked -- Harry Truman -- with me."
