@Maki Remnant's climate zones probably aren't the same as ours, and those things are confusing as hell. So Vacuo very well could be up north.

As for the maps being inconsistent, I got nothing.

@WP that makes sense and it's probably true, but there's also the possibility that when Ozpin said "down", he was referring to elevation, rather than latitude. Lower Egypt, for example, refers to the Nile Delta, which is to the north of Upper Egypt, the mountainous areas farther along the Nile.

I kind of like the idea of Atlas being the tough, badass mountain country now that I think about it.
