Denmark, 1962
So I found this render of an old map of Austria with an added heightmap to it, and I then decided to try it myself. I then found this 1962 map of Denmark on the "Library Of Congress" website and added a 1k heightmap to it. The map: https://www.loc.gov/item/74693761/
Rendered in Cinema 4D and edited in Photoshop.
