As this is an initial claims threads, things will work differently this time. Things are not being conducted on a first come, first serve basis - rather, conflicting claims will have to be talked out, with eventual arbitration by the mapmaking team if no cooperation can be agreed upon between players. Eventually, once the map has been initially seeded, we will revert to the tried and true model of 30 posts and posting here. Furthermore, resources will be incoming on the map probably with the second update.

We will try to keep up a reasonable pace of at least bimonthly updates.

Applying for a MAP SPOT:-

Location :-
Name of Country :-
Capital :-
Location of Capital :-

Additional Major Cities and Locations :-

To protect the fairness of our game, please make all requests for alteration to the map publicly. The Mapmaker will not make changes based on Discord, PM, Skype or any other private or offsite conversations. We will not accept requests forwarded anywhere other than official public map threads.

INACTIVITY & DISCLAIMER

Role play activity will prevent deletion from the map, there is no minimum activity needed to prevent removal as it is due to Mapmaker discretion, though an announcement of departure in the Absence Thread will excuse a drop off of activity. Prior to removal, the inactive player will usually be placed on the Inactivity Listing, allowing new players to assume their map spot should the player not return to in-character activity. The Mapmaker & Administration can remove, edit, add, or deny changes to the map based on existing rules or past lessons learned - clarification on the reasoning of these exceptional decisions can and will be given upon reasonable inquiry.

INACTIVITY LISTING

Any and all nations on this listing can be removed and replaced by a new player upon request for a map spot :-

OK. After some discussion on Discord, I would like to apply for this spot.

You must be registered for see images


Name of country: Eiffelland.
Capital: Trier.
Location of capital: I will indicate it as soon as the first version of the map is there.
Other major cities: Bremen will be one of them. I have to determine where I will locate it.

Two caveats:
1. Ostmark and I agreed that we would border each other. Please leave room around me for his map application. @Ostmark, sorry that I did not discuss this out with you, but I discovered that the map discussions were already ongoing on Discord, so I had to quickly claim something.
2. Coro, could you please make sure that I get Francophones to my Southwest or West?

And then: Latitudes and altitudes. I saw that the northernmost island runs off the map. Do the top and bottom of the map really indicate 90 degrees altitude, or do they represent something else, e.g. 60 or 70 degrees altitude? I prefer the Gothic Sea not to be frozen during Winter.

Location :- Northern coast of Northeastern island of Himyar. See the first post of the thread for a proposed collaborative map of the region I'm using as a base. I'd be in the smallest, yellow spot.

Name of Country :- Knights of St. Joseph / Josepania
Capital :- Hierosolyma
Location of Capital :- See above
Additional Major Cities and Locations :- See above, however, the only ones I would prefer would be Antiochia, Sidon, Edessa, and Constantia. That being said, if you're able to fit the other smaller cities that would be wonderful.

ADDITIONAL NOTE: This is a tentative claim currently going through collaboration discussions to resolve conflicting visions of this particular subcontinent per the above linked thread. If for whatever reason said discussion requires me to move, I will do so with little complaint and find another location.

My current understanding of plots in Gallo-Germania... and a more official notice of how Petits-Pays will appear. I urge those who have not applied yet but are listed on this map to still apply so you follow the rules. Also because it would help to have your more official borders drawn. Many borders here are drawn from a mental image in my head of possible applications players might make. So follow the rules and apply officially or you won’t be included even if you are listed on this pseudo map I made on my phone!

The green area, the gulf and the island, is the war reparation for having stolen Tibur from the pope, driving him out of the wounded valley in which he resided.
@Notmyfinalname he will still have to submit the official claim if he agrees on the area.

Name of Country : Corrientes / United States of Corrientes
Capital : Callao
Location of Capital : Red Dot
Additional Major Cities and Locations : Antioquia (Orange Dot), San Sebastian (Blue Dot), Yape (purple dot), Potobamba (dark red), Bella Vista (green dot), Rio Verde (black dot), Tiltil (pink dot)

The shaded area is a disputed territory. Probably currently on the maps it just looks like a straight line between the two countries.

If I could make the most humble of requests, those slight alterations along the red lines will go a long way toward having it look aesthetically pleasing (to me) and fitting the cannon geography in my head. I'm equally in love with both alterations, but if I were forced to choose - the northern one would be my preference. If none are possible, I'll cry in the corner.

The eastern black line pays respect to Eserland's southern border. As far as city placements go, I'll begin drawing up maps soon enough to figure out more than just Solis and Tauritania.

I will make an effort to satisfy your wishes, but I can make no promises because I do not wish for open season with map changes. :icon_cool:

When you're considering, think of all the wishes an Aurarian can satisfy for you ;)

Something like this Coro, you can move my borders around somewhat as needed by expanding/shrinking the southern/eastern as needed etc to make this work, I give creativity to you map master. I just would like a border with our Florida man when he kinda fills himself in here in the claims. The itty bitty white dot in the bay is the capital Kremlyov

The way you drew in Eiffelland looks very fine to me :) Could you please do it this way? And does count as an official application?

One small request: Could you please make sure that Ostmark still borders me? For the remainder, I am fully happy with having Tarusa as neighbour :)

Thank you Coro for the draft. I like it. Based on your signature I see your German Kingdom of Saksenborg-Holzsassen will border Salen in the south. Will the remaining plots be open for other small nations? If so, may I suggest the following: that the land be either divided among Salen and Saksenborg - or perhaps that the land in between Salen and Eiffelland be divided between the two? I drew a draft for the the first scenario (where I altered the Salian coastline somewhat as earlier suggested):
