Our landmarks. Feel free to suggest improvements and expansion on the descriptions! :)

Canucksian Strait:
Named after Liberal Canucks, a nation famous for its hockey team and economic power.

Herald Sea:
The nation of Raedwald used to be on its shores. It called the body of water Herald sea after a character in the history of the world.

Isle of Sapphry:
Named after the once great nation of Sapphry, which used to exist there.

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.

Rhino Island:
The Q102 Nature Reserve is on that island.

Peachific Bay:
Named after our 1xx day Prime Minister Peachy.

Mount St. Peter Piper:
St. Peter Piper is kind of the patron saint of Picklelalia, since he performed the miracle of picking a peck of pickled peppers.

Bay of Toast
The residents of Picklelalia like to call the bay this way for reasons unknown...

Nevareies Gulf
Named for the nation of Nevareion which was one of the first to lay claim to territory in Q102 and the first to provide charts of the Gulf which is renowned for it's rich fish stocks and sandy beaches.

Mount Everleinster
So called after the nation of LeinsterMunster, the first forum Mogul.

Mount Ino
Ino is the earth godess of FluffPinkBunnies. It was to be called Mount Bunny, before religious leaders claimed it for their cult .. ;)

Thompson Plains
The Plains of Thompson were named after the first great leader of Calm Minds, he was a visionary who created it with such great care and love, in a land that almost seemed "draged and droped" into place.

Rhino Range
Rhino population is abundant here. Rhinos are the national animal of Zakaroo, who first planned to name the mountains Rhino Ring until neighbours kept sniggering about that name. ;)

Craigsonic Mountains
This chain of mountains is called after the chief astronomers of Q102, the people of Craigsland.

The Bern Mountains
This is how the people of Lycia City call the mountains on the border to Nevareion.

Great Desert
It is a desert. And a large one. Duh :lol:

Bay of Lameducks
In honour to the nation of Lameducks the bay has been named after them. Lameduck has been subject of civil war during which their was assassinated.

Robin Island
The robin, a small bird which you can read more about here.

Cruzanian Mountains
The chain of mountains near Cruzendale are a renowned skiing area.

Isle of Schotze
Home of our founder Schotze! :D

The Gynorarian
A river flowing through the nation of Gynovia.

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.
