Posted by: Inevitable Apr 23 2014, 01:01 AM
Right then ladies and gentlemen, it's high time I rebooted the regional map thread. In case you weren't aware, I've usurped ASMV of his job as regional map maker, and while I maintained a cities map in tandem for a while, I decided to go back to the drawing board and create a fantastic* redesign, which I feel showcases the very morals of the region - old-fashioned, but still clean and sleek looking to this very day. So, for your wonderful eyes, the map (in it's most current form) is below:

CLICK MAP TO ENLARGE


In an effort to keep this thread for requests only, I'll be including the changelog in the same factbook entry the map itself can be found on, on the Regional Message Board.

Now, you may be thinking - Atlantian Oceania Cartography Institute, Magnaeus, how can I get The Letterbox Project to have a peek over my country, so it can be included on the map? Well, it's simple. First, you must meet the following criteria:
  • Nations will not be added to the map until they have been in the region for 28+ days. You can still request beforehand, however.
  • You must have a unique flag, that doesn't belong to any other nation within the region, or a nation that exists in real life. (Historical flags and flags of national subdivisions are fine, however.)
  • You must have some national information available (be it in the form of a factbook on the main site, or a post within the forums).
Then, you simply fill out your application, which must contain the following things:
  • Your nation name.
  • The plot of land you'd like. If you're proficient in any image editor, feel free to download the map, cut out the bit you want, colour it in, and post it back! Otherwise, a simple description will do.
  • A link to that national information I mentioned earlier.
  • Your capital city, or a major one, so I can put that on the map too.
And now, some more interesting points, as I love making lists:
  • Don't make a massive claim. Sure, a fluid scale is used on this map, but don't take the biscuit. If you go RP-ing your nation is the size of Russia when it's the size of Nellietopia on the map, then I won't be too impressed.
  • Nations that are puppets of other users must delcare themselves as such, and also actively RP the claim of the puppet nation (and provide a link to said RP in their application).
  • Don't try and grab land around other nations in order to cut them off from the rest of the world - I will simply reject your claim.
  • All claims are subject to approval - the Atlantian Oceania Cartographic Institute (Magnaeus Branch) is a fickle mistress, and claims that I deem terrible or improperly submitted will not be accepted. Feel free to try again, however.
  • If you don't like any of the lovely plots of land available, then land can be created, however this will be reviewed with an even stricter eye than any other claim. If I don't think your island would fit sandwiched between those two nations, you'll be politely asked to change said application.
  • Seriously, we've got a lot of nice mainland - why not take some of that?
  • Please include the word "Abracadabra" in your application, as we all know that you don't get anything you want without saying the magic word. Also, it shows you've at least read this far. Although, please do read on.
  • I can add things like lakes, if they're particularly important, however they cannot be placed where other features had been RP'ed before - like the Great Calanian Desert, for example.
  • Nations that have CTE'd will remain on the map for two weeks after their extinction, and if they have made a significant contribution to the region or to the greater forum (as is the case with choice nations included on the map), this will be extended further (or indefinitely).
  • If I deem you to be inactive within regional affairs, you'll get the white name. It's nothing bad, it simply draws people to the more active nations in the region.
And that seems to be about it! Any more questions? TG me. Posted in the last map thread, but your claim hasn't been processed? Post a new one here, meeting all the criteria! Happy mapping!

ABRACADABRA
Is that the magic word?

OK, being serious, here's a link to my factbook http://www.3wideracing.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2444

I've requested the large island between Osarius and Whittora, and I've coloured it in yellow (our national colour), on this map here: http://oi58.tinypic.com/2zodsew.jpg

The small black dot in the south-east of the nation is where our capital city, Watford is located. I've also done a little bit of terraforming of the islands, for continuity reasons with my national map. If there's an issue with this, or one of the nearby nations has any objection to me being located in my present location, then I'll reapply.

Hopefully that's all OK.

Can i get that little island between Tachbe and Azeruia back at some point? Thanks!

Posted by: Mastille Apr 23 2014, 07:57 PM
Here's the long-awaited factbook for Mastille! http://www.3wideracing.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=8&t=2458

I'm requesting the island off the coast of Azeruia, to the northwest of Farfadillis. Color the island a dark blue, like my flag (if possible), please.

Since Mastille is a city-state, and the capital is Mastille, the square can go wherever it wants on the island.

Hopefully this is okay for you!

Posted by: Inevitable Apr 24 2014, 01:32 AM
Greater Watford, your application has been ACCEPTED, and you should be included on the map as of now.

Misrantis, as you were included on the map previously, but seemed to have been lost to the sands of time, and my own ineptitude, you have been re-introduced onto the map. Please provide a capital city, however!

Mastille, your application has been REJECTED, as it didn't contain the magic word. Please resubmit your application, in full, with it included. Make sure you read the rules fully!

I was going to try and reclaim the lost land of Kryosis (which CTE'd before) but the change in the map means it might be a bit too tricky to cut that land out again. Especially since I don't have a picture of the old one to hand.

Soo... I did a bit of retcon magic, in line with the way I RP Kryosis -- a paranoid psychotic dictatorship with an incredibly advanced, if somewhat crazy, military science division -- and abracadabra, alakazam... we have a new Kryosi border.

IC reasons can be found in the Kryosis factbook:
http://www.nationstates.net/nation=kryosis/detail=factbook/id=248810

I hope that suffices, if not, let me know and I'll do something more... in-depth.

As for the actual border... I'll leave that up to you. I'm fine with whatever though, as long as it's in the area directly north of Osarius (due to the shared border).

Ta muchly.

Capital: Lambridge

the plan is to have my puppet nation West Mantwenic to inhabit the western half of the island, but I will put in a separate request for that!

Thanks!

Oh yeah... Abracadabra!

Ello matey.

Quick points of information. Mathdon has not been the capital of Falcania since it was destroyed in the Falcanian Civil War. The current capital is New Shirley, which you should have on the cities map you so lovingly curated.

Also, the waterways around it are the Falcanian Straits.

Your nation name: Royal Kingdom of Quebec

The plot of land you'd like. If you're proficient in any image editor, feel free to download the map, cut out the bit you want, colour it in, and post it back! Otherwise, a simple description will do: I'd like to have this claimed territory for Quebec previously at Esquarium(http://iiwiki.com/images/2/28/Esquarium.png) to be put right in the northwestern tip of Calania or right above Northandryun, as we have already discussed in IRC. Since it's more like planting the southern part of it right next to it, so no turning Quebec into an island.

Either way, It'll be great to perhaps have like 2 lakes(which you can see on that link I gave to you within the very post) below it.

A link to that national information I mentioned earlier: Your capital city, or a major one, so I can put that on the map too: Quebec City to be placed reasonably in its place at RL Canadian map.

Also, It'd be great to have Quebec City a special status as home of the World Cup of Hockey Federation.

Abracadabra..... a rat appears in stage.

Well, I'd like to claim the portion of land near Kryosis and Thatius, do some lakes and rivers, the capital is Ratxfordshire who will be located near the coast in front of Thatius and two islands with the shape of a mouse/rat near Dorian & Sonya.

Color it with grey.

The plot of land you'd like. If you're proficient in any image editor, feel free to download the map, cut out the bit you want, colour it in, and post it back! Otherwise, a simple description will do: It's all available in http://i.imgur.com/yL8jNYZ.png, but to help you identify:

Nchi ya Tufani- All of Foringana above Pacitalia (shaded in blue)
Sealtainn Eireann- North of Furellum, West of Nojika and Demot (shaded in green)
Quebecois Acadiana- Right below Falcania, southwest of Nchi ya Tufani (shaded in light blue)

A link to that national information I mentioned earlier: Your capital city, or a major one, so I can put that on the map too:

Nchi ya Tufani- Tufani, to be placed slightly north of the very centre.
Sealtainn Eireann- Mountshannon, to be placed slightly north of its very centre.
Quebecois Acadiana- New Orleans, somewhere along the southern coastline.

Also, It'd be great to have Quebec City a special status as home of the World Cup of Hockey Federation, which I requested earlier with my claim.

I don't mean to nitpick, but generally speaking puppets have only been added to the regional map when there's been sufficient RP regarding how it was discovered and/or colonized by its main nation. This goes way way way back, even before I was in AO: http://www.3wideracing.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=172

Also, TBH/TBF the total area seems like a HUGE chunk of land for three puppets, so as another member of the region I'd really like to know that it won't all be missile silos for example.

This is a good rule. I like this rule a lot. I support this rule.

Right, as of yesterday, that rule is in effect. Get RP-ing!

Posted by: Vekaiyu (Todd) Aug 18 2014, 10:33 PM
Hi there! I know I've only been here for, well, less than an hour, but I can wait ~28 days. I was encouraged by a few members in the region to take up shop here in the form of a colony. My main nation is Todd McCloud, but I never RP with that nation. Instead, I RP as http://nswiki.org/index.php?title=Vekaiyu. Honestly, Vekaiyu doesn't have too much of a business being here, other than sports RPing. But, if there's a claim on the map that has solid resources for iron ore, tin, and especially thorium, Vekaiyu would more or less nab it, no questions asked.

Anyway, I've already named the nation, http://www.nationstates.net/nation=sishevyu. It doesn't have to be huge (I'd prefer it not be ginormous, so to speak). But it should have access to the coast, have mountains, and in general be farily easy to defend. I'm not very picky as to the spot on the map.

* Sishevyu
* Not too picky. Just access to the coast, have mountains, and in general be farily easy to defend.
* Don't have one for Sishevyu, but I do for http://nswiki.org/index.php?title=Vekaiyu.
* Capital city: Iskligori. Should be along the coast.

That would be much appreciated as the lakes are often mentioned in my IC information or RPs.

Abracadabra!

Please note that Lucorias has been purchased by Eshan from SJG; could its color be changed to white and labeled that it is an Echani Territory in the same fashion the Whittorian Islands are labeled. Please leave the capital as is.

Also, I'd like to claim the land to the west of Eshan and next to Kryosis in the name of my puppet Vriupai. Note that I plan to RP an assimilation into Eshan as a solution to my overcrowding problem in a sort of "Remember the Maine" situation. If a new nation before the next time the map is updated, obviously ceed it to them.

If there's any issues with this request, let me know, and thank you very many!

Application to be on the Map:

Kingdom of Anthor, capital is Vaumort
I'd like to claim the group of four islands to the north of Star. I understand that this is a large claim, but I would like to have all four for some neat geographic and national set up around climates, culture and economics. However, if you think it's too big, I completely understand and respect that decision so I would then ask to be granted the one immediately north of Star/the largest one.

http://iiwiki.com/wiki/Anthor <--- This is slightly out-dated in that the top introduction paragraphs are for when this existed in Pardes, but I will be changing those to adapt to AO; furthermore will be finishing that page/fleshing it out more and adding others to fit AO Canon

Abracadabra! Whatever map claims I've made since the last one, strike those as here's the final one (for this update at least).

Please note that Lucorias has been purchased by Eshan from SJG; could its color be changed to white and labeled that it is an Echani Territory in the same fashion the Whittorian Islands are labeled. Please leave the capital as is.

I have a bit of a two pronged map claim as well. First and most importantly, would it be possible to claim the two islands highlighted https://i.imgur.com/5FeNaVq.png? If so, could they be colored white, named the Isles of Kelleria, with the capitol city located at the black dot and named Rosemary? They would be a territory of Eshan, so could they be labeled Echani Territory similar to Lucorias?

As for the second request, Would it be possible to claim the land and island directly to the west of Eshan and the attached island too? https://i.imgur.com/kJRhKWQ.png adding that land would help support the idea that Eshan has nearly 500 million inhabitants, cause given the apparent smallness of the islands that doesn't seem entirely plausible. Adding that land and island would certainly help explain things a little better, and I would be more than happy to RP a colonization effort of that deserted land if it'll help my claim. I do RP the Echani islands as being big enough to hold hundreds of millions of people, so this isn't an entirely pressing request.

Also, please note that Eshan's flag has changed from the one currently displayed on the map.

Posted by: 95X-Scottfire Nov 30 2017, 01:30 PM
While reading through map claims for my own entertainment and amusement (I have no official capacity in the map claim process), I realized Anthor and Yesopalitha have both made the same claim, and for territories that have historically been two separate claims (http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/2006/07/29/ found in the old maps thread). I hope all parties involved can find a mutually agreeable solution.

Posted by: Yeso Nov 30 2017, 08:44 PM
As Anthor had his claim before mine, I withdraw my claim.

My first choice would be to be where Perlasilangan is. I have no idea who that user was, maybe they were really important to AO? But that spot would be ideal for me. Filindostan (Sangti) who was the owner of that nation's account said it would be okay on IRC.

Secondly, I'd like a bit of land, bigger than Chromaitka but not as big as the island that has Audioslavia, to be located diagonally between Chromatika and Cosumar.

Basically, I want Chromatika and Yesopalitha to be near each other, if at all possible.

Thanks, and apologies for not looking.

Posted by: Eshan Dec 1 2017, 12:59 AM
Abracadabra! It's come to my attention (Thank you Chrom) that both the island and land part of my claim so here's a take two.

For posterities sake, please note that Lucorias has been purchased by Eshan from SJG; could its color be changed to white and labeled that it is an Echani Territory in the same fashion the Whittorian Islands are labeled. Please leave the capital as is.

And for the revisionary claim, would it be possible to add a could of islands of varying sized islands around Eshan for the size/population issues mentioned in another post? And could I claim the skinny island west of Nojika called the Azeruian Slip as a half-way point and restore/refuel point for Echani ships headed to Lucorias/the area, and with capital city https://i.imgur.com/cUFh4fr.png

Also, please note that Eshan's flag has changed from the one currently displayed on the map! Sorry for the posts, the inability to edit posts makes this a bit of a pain. AO4EVR!

Land Claim: An island nation, located in the Southwest of AO. Not too concerned exactly which part of that area, wherever it fits best. See the following image for the overall shape of the country/island:

Borograd is the capital city, and if other cities are included the next biggest one to include would be Stelburg.
