Anonymous geek here. I did some math based on the [|map] of the known world of Dishonored.

The zoomed in map on the isles is exactly 450% larger than the real one with Pandyssia.

I drew an outline around each island on the zoomed map, and filled the whole area on a layer. Then I resized the whole map 450% (to 8160x6120) and placed that layer on top of small the isles. It fit perfectly and provides accurate areas.

By mesuring the pixel area of each region I got: Gristol: 65859 px square Tyvia: 32903 px square Serkonos: 13565 px square Morley: 12066 px square

Dunwall: 2340px distance from equator Karnaca: 2165px distance from equator Samara: 2918px distance from equator

Now we need to decide on a latitude possition for Dunwall. For this experiment I chose London at 51°30'N lat, 5709km distance from equator. This gives us the scale for the map: 1px = 2.43974358974359 km.

Dunwall: 5709km from equator; 51°30'N lat Karnaca: 5282km from equator; ~47°32'N lat Samara: 7119km from equator; ~64°N lat

1px square = 5.952348783694939km square

Gristol: 392,015 km² (~Zimbabwe or 1.87 Great Britain) Tyvia: 195,850 km² (~Senegal) Serkonos: 80,743  km² (between Czech Republic and Austria) Morley: 71,821 km² (Republic of Ireland) Empire total area: 740,429 km² (2.3 times the area of the British Isles; Zambia is the closest comparisson)

Bonus: a rough outline of Pandyssia yields an area of about 9006064 px square. That's 53,607,234km² - slightly smaller than Eurasia or about 1.76 Africa.
