How would I even start this?

Note: I know that this may not be the right topic, but it is the only place I could think to post on.

I want to make a game similar to Rise of Nations, but the issue is, is that I dont know how to. For a few months now, I have been looking online, but I have seen no solutions. If we cannot do that style, I could also do something like Nation Rising Simulator or the real game, Hearts of Iron 4. I am not looking for any help with the scripts, (unless required), just the UI about how to make a globe or map, without showing the character.

Thanks!

Remove the character and create a custom camera script. I feel like it’s pretty straightforward from there. I’d make a map out of parts and have a top down camera

From there, with the top-down camera, how would I let the player move it?

One way you can do this Is just making your character invisible and having him move around, but if your talking about a ron type map then your going to have to make a custom camera movement

Bind keys to WASD and update the camera position that way
