350 states share the map in 1200. The largest by mapped area are Cumans, Great Jin and Khwarezmia.

Cumans is the largest state on the map in 1200, a position it has held since 1102 (before that: Seljuk Empire). It stays in first place until 1207, when Mongol Empire takes over. The five largest states hold 21% of all land with a recorded ruler. 61% of the land on the map has no recorded state. The number of states is about the same as in 1189: 350 against 341.
