(For this theory I shall use only the child timeline IMO.)I've been wondering, have we ever taken into consideration of both the Hyrules that we knew about? This is the two Hyrule's featured in Zelda 1 and 2. Should any game come after it, should we not take into consideration the places on this map and how perhaps they could somehow link to one another.
Take a look at this map from the first game.
What catches my interest is the placement of Death mountain there it is to the north of the "older" Hyrule.
Take a look at these other maps from Zelda games made beyond.
In both these games, Death Mountain appears to be on the northern part of the map, this would normally indicate that both games took place around the bottom of Hyrule period if they have a link to these other games. But in other games, Death Mountain often appears in quite a few many other locations.
Now I'm no expert on geography, but I am sure that mountains don't change in 100 years. What am I trying to get at here, is that Hyrule might have changed it's location and split into two kingdoms. The First Kingdom that still follows the old code is in TP and the second that broke off is in Zelda 2.
Another thing that helps supports this is our lovable violent rock eaters, the gorons. During both the events of Alttp (they may have wings but that doesn't change the resemblance) and TP our friends were actually quite violent and strong. They may have had those lovable old charms in TP but they were still somewhat suspicious of Hylians during the game. And in Alttp they were very violent towards you, perhaps Ganondorf left more of a scar than we thought in OOT.
Now let's look at it in this order. OOT > Alttp > LOZ > AOL > TP
OOT and Alttp the mountain was on one certain side of the map, both of them had Gorons. The only difference is that they had different thoughts of you during each one. Even in TP they had shaky relations with you even though you seem to be of the new kingdom made after OOT. As soon as you help them though, they grow nice to you once again.
Why is this relevant, because no Gorons appeared in LOZ or AOL. In TP the gorons are stationed on the Westward side of Death Mountain which also could mean that they moved there from the eastern side that is in OOT and Alttp. We explore the southern side of the mountain in LOZ= No gorons. We explore the north eastern side = Nothing. Yet in TP we explore the westward side and find them there.
Also if you look at the map in OOT you'll find Hyrule to be more south of Death Mountain (if you removed the clouds.) In Alttp we are still south to the mountain (this is still iffy because the forest blocks any other exploration northward.
This seems to give me an idea that perhaps there are two Hyrules during the TP era. Yet this is still a theory and theories can be disproved, so give it your best shot. The more we argue, the more answers we'll discover hopefully.
