[edit] OH NOES! I IS N00B AT DF!
Have no fear, your friendly (and at times sarcastic) df wikiuser frostedfire is here! I figured those other tutorials were lacking something - decent humour. Markavian's one is good enough but this one should be kept more current.

runs up a world in under 3 generations ;)
the world is a northern-hemisphere map (ie the bottom is hot where the top is cold), with a setup that is, apart from the trees, goblins, elves, lack of humans, etc, not dissimilar to the eastern mediterranean, with a big sea to the west (with islands), a middle sea largely cut off from the big sea and a good sea on the eastern half - these can be abstracted to the seas around northern Turkey . But enough of real-world geography...
strangely, there is a definite lack of humans around the map, with 2 large empires and adequately-populated elves, dwarves and goblins spread out over the map (although the dwarves and gobbos were packed onto the southern mountain range, none of them dared to settle on the "Urals").
