Karen Wynn Fonstad's interpretation of the Dark Land in the Third Age...

Based on Fonstad's Third Age map of Arda (Figure 2) from the revised Atlas of Middle Earth, I would guess that much of the Dark Land continent ended up forming the bulk (if not the entirety) of Antarctica, while portions of it might have broken off to form modern Australia and New Zealand. By the Third Age, other new lands had also arisen in the West that would eventually become Greenland and the Americas.

Is your map based on a portion of this one?
