Requesting the name change of Erdenshire Naval Base on the map, to simply Erdenshire. If Asylan is going to consider it a full territory it might as well appear that way on the map.

VB9 Update:-

@ - please apply for expansions so we can get it in for the next update

@ - I shared Revy's fears of the Engellexic power triangle in the East, but I think you gave up a lot to make this change and you will likely not abuse the power (if so obviously we'll all notice)

@ - I got caught up in some errands with the time I intended to spend altering the Himyari continent and free range spots, I'll try to take a look at doing this sometime in the week

Please remove the label of S. Seora there. It's not an independent country. Add a label for Siyang however, please.

Glad to see I'm still on the map but that (NPC) thing is sort of worrying. Does that imply I am inactive??

I think it'd be best if you continue to develop your nation and the colony it has for awhile, and with how catastrophically Valkany and E. Cape ended: stability for a time is what you should be looking for in RP, not making more and more projects for yourself to manage.

Hmm OK though I was planning to have Aegyptus be a colony since ancient times and to have no polemic RP. Thinking of it Aegyptus can wait. Can I at least get the Isles?

For the bottom picture:

Considering the former Frescanian Empire (Frescania, Cathiopia, Auraria, Monkecia?) the islands in the middle of Occidentia and Himyar could not realistically have gone to anyone else but Frescania. They’re like right smack in the middle of the Frescanian Empire and would have been incredibly vital to commerce and defense of the Frescanophere. I discussed it with [MENTION=125]Cathiopia[/MENTION], and we decided to make it a NPC nation that was granted independence from Frescania at the time of the collapse of the Empire. I think this is a fair way to handle their importance without pixel grabbing, as I doubt Cathiopia nor Auraria could have taken the islands.

If you accept, please name them “Las Islas Marianas”

For the top, those islands I’d like to go to Auraria. You could call them the Aurarine Implarian (Implaria Aurariano). Here’s the historical justification for those islands coming to Auraria:

With Monkecia conquered into the Aurarine Colony, settlers (pushed by merchants) wanted to capture islands to ease trade in the colony with the globe. Using Frescania’s power, settlers moved farther and farther from Auraria’s mainland, claiming island after island and building trading posts and military bases on them.

In the 1840s, when Monkecia split from Auraria and Frescania descended into Civil War, Ricardo Calderón, leader of the independence movement, took advantage of the situation. He proclaimed that if the western islands were not transferred to Auraria and Auraria not granted a commonwealth status, the colony would revolt. With the relative economic success of the Aurarine State, being the most economical of Frescania’s colonies, and the civil war Frescania found itself in, the government agreed. In 1843, the Aurarine Commonwealth was created with Calderón at the head, and the Western Islands became the Aurarine Implarian, given a territory status within the Commonwealth.

After discussion with Davy, I am planning a national reboot as a Celtic/Latin kingdom named Transabina. In this vein, I would like to apply for mapspot G2. A preliminary factbook for this new nation will be launched tonight/tomorrow morning.

I will leave the status of Saamiland up to the community. I am totally fine with that location being vacated, or with the nation remaining NPC. If the latter happens, I will probably use Saamiland in any future Chess events, as well as other cultural RPs.

I like to claim spot Z1.God bless.

Farshonia a lot of people start off by writing out the ins and outs of their nation, called a Factbook before putting it on the map. where the factbooks are, and if you want a template. Obviously at the start yours doesn't need to be too big.

Red - Commonwealth
Green - Portusgalia

Location: See Above Image
Name of Colony: Commonwealth Fenghuang
Name of Primary Country: The Commonwealth
Established History: Sixian territory leased to the Commonwealth since 1666

Location: See Above Image
Name of Colony: Meizhou Island
Name of Primary Country: Portusgalia
Established History: Sixian territory leased to Portusgalia/Orient Company in 1663. In 1736 the territory was handed over to Portusgalia as a tributary gift for combating maritime piracy when Sixia was unable to combat at the time

This is an agreement between myself and the two related parties Commonwealth and Portusgalia that they would have these colonies set in Sixia since the 17th century. I'm in the process of looking for a suitable third applicant, just a heads up that the area will be likely further cluttered with another name. I wanted to also have the former Cantignian colony show on the map but there's just too much clutter to include. Let me know if you need anymore details for the application.

The above image illustrates the border adjustment we've agreed upon. Quoting this post such that Transabina can confirm it for whoever requires it.
