we have now the upper part of the map
and the rest will be the lower part , which mean islamic cultur at left side and the indian at the right
, as CrazyPsycho said each of them will get 25 % of the total map
and Konpaku , i really don't know what r u talking about , i couldn' understand u
u did the same map !!!??? , is that all . the names of areas already on the map but in very light color
Simple
1 - he put in egypt marmare sea ^ ^
2 - saytan in roc mountain "fenix = roc + saytan = roc mountain"
3 - the next update of europe is "fortress Europe" "cave temple jupter"
4 - saytan area in samarkand?
5 - weast asia = roc mountain ^ ^
is it is 100% map
that's silkroad online's old map on the area's page
and from what's written on it , seems like there r 4 cultures ( Chinese , Euro , Islamic ,Indian or something near it)
no1 knows how the map will be in future , so don't say Marmara sea will stick beside Egypt
and yet we don't know what's the next update , but probably tiger mountain fortress , coz Ksro already have it
and forget about point 4 & 5 , we all know that west Asia is saytan's area , we don't need more philosophical ideas from you
i added this old map to prove that's there will be 4th race (and i said old , this words i added r old , i added them long time ago in another thread here)
If you respond with tl;dr, you lose. Either way you lose. I have shattered any idea of a fourth race, just read it.
Your statement that each race gets a quarter of the map is incorrect according to the same map you use to present your theory. You have no primary sources or secondary sources, other than this map. You even altered the map, and interpreted it incorrectly for the sake of your theory while ignoring the thoughts of others. Now, yes the region you have marked as India is India but it is not the region for another race.
First I removed your Edit to show a clearer, purer version of the map.
Second I cite the interview and the official site, which on several occasions has stated: There are three races, Chinese, European, and Islamic. Yes the idea of a fourth one is appealing but it is absolutely ludicrous. Take a look at the unaltered map:

I shaded out the text you added with red.
Here is another map that I just made now. I edited your text out in green, brought the roads out in red, circled what you believe to be India in red, circled the Islam/Europe Cities in yellow, and Circled Jangan, DW, and Hotan in blue:

Now, The debunking begins:
One, notice the area which Europe, China, and Islam is in. Do you notice something about Islam and Europe? They all have cities that are modeled the same, excluding the caves. Now look at Jangan and DW. They, on the map, are drawn similarly. The difference being jangan looks more regal because that (in SRO) is where the Emperor resides. Look at Hotan, you can tell which one is Hotan because of the Trees (i.e.) Oasis Kingdom, the center of the Silkroad. Now look at what you believe to be India, what do you notice? Is that region shaped like a city? Does it even have anything shaped like a city there? No, It has a Statue of a Hindu God, signifying Hinduism. Now that area is called Buddha World, correct? Why would a Hindu God be at the site of Buddha World? Notice on the site they changed the name of Buddha world to India and Hermit world to Taoist world? That is for historical accuracy. Now look at the map again, do you notice the two Drawings on the indian subcontinent don't have cities designed in a similar manner? They don't even attempt to make a city, they have statues: A hand and, possibly, Vishnu. Do you see a pattern in the areas with races? They all have cities modeled after that region's race, don't they? In Europe they have a Romanesque city. In China they have a Emperor's palace and an inner mongolian city. South West of the Inner Mongolia city, they have an Oasis Kingdom, that is Hotan. In Islam, they have what appears to be a Mosque and finally where Samarkand is they have a city. Now, look north of Hotan, do you see taklamakan? Good, look east of Jangan, do you see Chin tomb? Good, look east of Samarkand, do you see Roc Mtn? Good, now look west of Constantinople, do you see Jupiter Temple? Good, Now north east of what appears to be Islam, do you see a cave? What cave is that? It is Cleopatra's Gate, a perversion of the Babylonian/Persian Fire Temple. You do see it, right? Good, now look at the roads.
Make Sure to follow the road
Lets start in Jangan, now head North-West. You're in DW now, good. Head South-West, you're in Hotan. Do you see the way the road moves? Do you? If you have a copy of the in game map on your computer I would suggest looking at it and doing a cross reference between my directions and the in game map. They're similar, no, they're the same. Ok - Continue from hotan south west, there are two options. You can continue on to Roc Mountain or you can go further south-west to Samarkand, good you're there. From Samarkand, you have a long journey (North West) to Constantinople right through asia minor, correct? Go back to samarkand, head south west, this time You should hit what, historically, is Baghdad. If you have managed to get this far without much dispute then I have confirmed your map reading skills as decent. Good we have established a Solid connection between Constantinople, Samarkand, Baghdad, Hotan, DW, and Jangan.
Another route, let us start where you believe the Indian Race is located: Start at the statue of Vishnu, head North-East. You should bump into... What... Heaven? Yes that is... Heaven. Hmm, it seems impossible to continue... In order for this to work out, the Indians would have to be separate from the other three races for several levels. Let us try this again, but differently.
Head for Hotan, good you're in Hotan. In jangan there is a level 90 - 100 training ground. That is Chin Tomb. You're still in Hotan, just keep in mind the current level of mobs. If you head South-East you end up in what is known as Fire Mountain, from fire mountain head South-West. You should now be in hermit World (ATM Taoist World). Good, lets go to Heaven now... Wait. There is no Land Route from taoist World to Heaven, as a Matter of fact: Heaven is only connected (by land) to Buddhist World (ATM India). How do you get to Heaven or India? Head Back to Jangan (and so it starts).
Level Route: All races should meet in Hotan, correct? India doesn't. According to your map, India has NO contact with the other cities. If there is no land route how can they be expected to reach Hotan? Teleport, DUH! Wait, look at the other cities, they all have land routes to places that can be reached through teleporting. This makes no sense. Historically India would be connected to Islam and China, but the map says other wise and earlier we established that this map is an accurate representation of the In-Game map, so what do you see? You say each race gets a quarter of the map, but Each Race's city (excluding the cities they share) gets maybe 15% (if they're lucky). China, gets two cities. Europe gets one and so does Islam (based on this map). Next Europe and Islam share a city: Samarkand. China, Europe, and Islam also share a city: Hotan. Now, look at other MMOs. Lets look at a well known one: WoW, their end-game areas are not directly connected to the primary areas. This goes for most MMOs, including SRO. Heaven and India (Buddha World on your map) are not connected to any other regions. Heaven appears to be a set of clouds that flow in the air and India (Buddha World on this map) is the land connected to it. Again, looking at other MMOs. In MMOs that have races there (usually, not always) is a city where the races meet. A main city. In SRO that city is Hotan. Now, how will the Indians even trade to Hotan? This IS silk road online and each race should be able to participate in trades from their city to hotan and to any other city via land. You can't teleport with trading transports so the teleporting from India to Hotan is bunk and you need to go by land, also the races can interact but this map tells a different story. To round up, Your MAP, yes, YOUR MAP. Tells a very, very different story. In order for an Indian race to exist in SRO every rule has to be broken or the Indians have to be Isolated Until all the races meet in heaven. That, makes no sense at all. Lastly, have you looked at the SRO trailers lately and how much DO you know about Silk Road history and their related regions?
Fourth Race Idea: Debunked.
Oh, and another matter. Since the beginning of the game there have always been mention, not discrete, but In your face allusions to future updates. This Indian Race prediction requires to much messing around and is easily "busted".
