Yes the white ones are roads and the grey one is a railway. I place them randomly, if you want more/less just tell me (or maybe even start a roleplay about it in events ;) )

Beaches (I hope you don't mind me calling you that...), is that slightly-off-color spot in the middle of my nation a mountain? If it is, I'd like to name it.

Mount Aether

It was this mountain that the Loratanans who created Future Past saw when they first came to this world. It jutted even above the clouds. Upon touching down, they found that it was an isolated peak in the middle of an Island. This, along with the strange feeling they got from the mountain, made it obvious that it was a phenomenon of great importance. They named it Mount Aether for its height and mystery, and no one has ever been high enough up the mountain to break the ever-present cloud barrier and solve the mystery.

Might be useful to post a blank map with just the landmarks marked on at some point?

I'd like to keep them on the same map for a lil while longer to avoid an inflation of maps. But if we continue to gain landmarks at this rate the names will leave the map eventually! :)

The Plaid Coast

The eastern seaboard of the Isle of Sapphry has a cornucopia of topographical formations. With everything from sandy beaches in the south to jagged cliffs in the north, it is easy to see why the people of Bagpipia call this coastline the "Plaid Coast". Its large reef supports a struggling cod fishing industry, offshore oil, and some amazing cold-water snorkling and scuba-diving.


...on the same topic, is that darker area in my country a mountain, or a hill? If it's a hill, I might call it a mountain anyway (the Irish do!).

Bagpipia (getting annoyed that I can't shorten my name without calling myself "Bag") :mellow:

Very nice! It has been added.

I had to check the original map and it turns out the darker area is indeed a forest!
Of course the forest might be on a hill ;) Or you could gather your citizen and build a mountain like the villagers do in The Englishman who went up a hill an came down a mountain!

I was talking to Beaches about this, and I came up with an idea.

Since Beaches said that Hyrule was fairly close in relation to Q102, how about making a continuation of the sea where our tiny islands our up to your region's western coastline? (The sea in question is called 'the Great Sea')
Here's a diagram:

Green = Hyrule, Pink = Q102

Thanks for making the diagram :)
I like the idea. What do you guys think?

Yes, really good idea, but I think that Q102 should be further away, the Great Sea needs to be wider and Q102 at least 50% bigger in my opinion.
