I seem to have located something while carusing around town in Free-Cam mode. Behold!
 
[[Image:ScreenshotSimNationMap-26reverseUSA.jpg|600px|center|SimNation?]]
 
This image, found in the school, could be a representation of SimNation, revealing the whole thing to be just a backwards US. Is this true? Could SimNation just really be Setats Detinu? {{SUBST:Kalasig}} 05:41, February 11, 2011 (UTC)
 
I beg you, help us by uploading a higher quality version. I can hardly see anything. However, it really looks like US. I wonder...{{Lol}}'''[[User:Andronikos_Leventis|<font color="#A60914" size="2px">Andronikos Leventis</font>]]'''<sup> ''[[User_talk:Andronikos_Leventis|<font color="#1404A2" size="1.3px">Talk</font>]]</sup>'' 14:10, February 11, 2011 (UTC)
:Yeah, it looks like a reversed map of the US, where Florida is on the opposite side of the country. Plus, seeing as this is from a rabbit hole, this may possibly be the highest quality avaliable just because the developers wouldn't bother putting much effort in a minor texture for the game.

I think that above is the US's Map in The School, yes but the classroom next-door to it may have that map and It's transparent through the back If that makes any sense.

My theory about this is that the Sims 3 was supposed to not have rabbitholes, but the programmers thought that an open world was exceptional enough. I believe they placed the map of a backwards USA just as part of a 'blue print' for the layout of the school while they were still programming Sunset Valley. They were possibly going to make a real map of SimNation, but just never got to it and left the template of the school. Of course, I have no citation and proof that this is true. Just a theory ^^
 
P.S I had noticed that you can not look in the schools anymore, so perhaps they removed it entirely in the latest update? [[User:AlphaDogMJP|<b><font color="green" size="2px">AlphaDogMJP</font>]]</b> 04:48, October 29, 2012 (UTC)
 
:I definitely think this map falls under the category of '[[List of Easter eggs in The Sims|easter egg]]'; I wouldn't read too much into it. It was probably added to the school as a joke. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LiR</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">speak</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">read</font>]]</sup>''' 07:26, October 29, 2012 (UTC)
::Back then, I was a little naive to fall for this (as now I become more sarcastic). I just think EA did design the map of the US, but simply flip it for whatever purpose. I don't see it too relevant anymore, to state where SimNation could be situated in. :/ But still, it's a nice find imo.

:::Haha, I definitely see what you mean. Perhaps I was being a bit too speculative? Like I said in my other post, it was only an uneducated guess. I had no proof whatsoever. ^^ [[User:AlphaDogMJP|<b><font color="green" size="2px">AlphaDogMJP</font>]]</b> 23:49, October 29, 2012 (UTC)
::::I went ahead and added this to [[List of Easter eggs in The Sims]]. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LiR</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">speak</font>]] ~ [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">read</font>]]</sup>''' 08:04, October 30, 2012 (UTC)
