I found a map helpful, even when it got so covered in scribbles that no-one else could possibly read it, because that stopped places moving around between one chapter and the next. And a clear idea of social structure and values in each country, because that constrained characters' actions and attitudes and meant that only certain plot turns would work. Good luck!
