The Regional Map: what to tell Avaerilon
Hi there!
As a region, we're very proud of our regional map. It includes numerous nations; young and old, small and large, important government figures and ordinary states. With its incredibly high level of detail and resolution, it's not surprising half of NS envies us!
So, what exactly do you need to tell me before you can get a spot on the map?
Well, that's all listed below. Make sure you read this thread thoroughly and then post in the Regional Map 2.0 thread. As soon as possible, I will add your nation to the map and upload it to ImageShack.
What to tell Avaerilon
- Where in the region you'd like your nation to be located
- Where your capital city is
- Where, if you like, your major cities (up to 7) are located
- If you have a metropolis area (those large red areas with the black squares and/or circles within)- a metropolis is not a metropolitan area like a conurbation or greater city, but a gigantic city larger than any that currently exist IRL.
- If you have any rivers, and if so, where they are
- If you have any mountains, and if so, where they are
- If you have any woodland or forest, and if so, where that is
- The following types of woodland or forest are shown on the map:
- Deciduous (trees that lose their leaves in winter- e.g. oak, sycamore, birch)
- Coniferous (trees that stay green throughout- e.g. pines)
- Tropical (trees that are comparable to those found in places such as the Amazon)
- Mediterranean (foliage, including scrub and herbs, that would be found along Southern Europe)
- Deciduous (trees that lose their leaves in winter- e.g. oak, sycamore, birch)
What not to tell Avaerilon about
- Counties, states (i.e. like states found in the U.S.A.), etc.
- Savannah, desert, volcanic plains, etc- anything not listed in the section above
- Lakes
- Names of places other than your nation's name
- Anything else I haven't listed in the first section
