While Epona focused on scientific accuracy and consistency, Verduria focuses on a comprehensive culture and world. The creator began his work in college and has continued to build, add, and revise over the years. An easy place to start is with the Visitor's Guide. Check over the website for anything you wish to explore more in-depth.
If conlang (constructed languages) holds interest for you, then Virtual Verduria is one world you need to check out. The behind-the-scenes page explains a little about how the language was originally designed and then revised. The home page has links to fourteen different languages designed for the world, as well as dictionaries and learning materials. He also has a news page and some fiction written in his languages.
This website is a fantastic example of how elaborate world-building can become. The focus is different than in Epona, but it is just as thought-out and consistent.
