Our current cartographer is Andossa Se Mitrin Vega Nations with grayed-out abbreviations are puppets. Brown areas are ex-nations which are reserved for various reasons. The numbered regions are unclaimed. There is no defined scale for the map; each nation can decide how much land their area on the map represents. How to Acquire a Homeland: 1) To Acquire a homeland, you must reply in this thread noting the location you which to inhabit. A Homeland will not be granted unless you first post http://www.3wideracing.com/forums/index.php?showforum=8 a little something about your nation. - http://www.3wideracing.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=213 - http://www.3wideracing.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=152 - 2) When responding in this thread, you must decide which area of the map you would like to settle. Simply tell us which area you would prefer to settle into uing the handy numbers. You can see which continent is which with our also-handy http://www.3wideracing.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=185 ) 3) Link to your RP when requesting land in this thread 4) Nations in breach of the http://www.3wideracing.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=95 will not be granted land until after they have updated their flag.

Yet Sarzonia and Krytenia were not deemed to need a protected status. That doesnt bother me but it makes me wonder why we choose to protect the others and keep them from being resettled as well. Any good answers? |

WAP - See 'Regional Council' - http://www.atlantianoceania.com/index.php?showforum=18 EYS - See http://thirdgeek.com/maps/aoarchive/aoarchive.php - it wasn't labelled for quite some time. Also See SUPER old maps ( http://files.atlantianoceania.com/maps/midearlyvilitancove.png ). On SUPER old maps, Vilitan lands used to extend onto the mainland. Even moreso than on the map I just linked, but that one is so ancient I try not to link it anywhere as it starts losing continuity (though not evolution) if i go farther back than the one i just posted. That land remained 'protected' by Vilita for a time before being gifted to the nation of 'Eystrck'. When Eystrck dissolved, VOIA installed a big fence around the land, installed some monitoring equipment and posted signs telling ppl to KTFO... or something like that... just incase they needed it - or at least to be able to influence who shared a mainland border within slingshot range of Turori. TCH - Back in a time where these forum saw 100 posts in a day, when Sports RP was a compliment to the Region building, Interregional Incidents etc, Tachbe symbolizes the turning point of that, after the glassing of Tachbe, an influx of more peaceful, sporting nations cropped up in AO sort of like a post-hiroshima Japan Ref: http://www.atlantianoceania.com/index.php?showtopic=167 SNO - Due to the similarity to and proximity to the above, I also see this Civil War in Southern Northland as an IC marker of an important time in the regions history. Ref: http://www.atlantianoceania.com/index.php?showtopic=2289 Obviously, one would not *want* to inhabit TAC or SNO due to the presence of radioactive isotopes likely in the waters there, Tachbe having been 'glassed' would be accessible minimally, but if someone borders up to these lands and has a good RP story, its not to say they couldn't start intruding inthere. The point being, This land has a 'story' behind it that any new occupant or neighbor to would have to be consistent with for the purposes of regional continuity, where other land that is free to take, the history of the land is entirely local so doesn't require any special consideration or cooperation - so can just be 'claimed' independently. |

Thanks for the links. For those of us who were not around during that time, they provide excellent historical information. And they also help to inderstamd just how important to AO they were. |

Posted by: Legalese Jul 19 2012, 12:33 PM |
Also worth mentioning that if we respect the ending planned by Sarz & The Holy Empire, Sarzonia just simply vanished, practically written out of (recent) history. It'd seem odd to have protected their land. That said, in some ways, I think the re-shaping of Cyanea "protects" it in another odd way - arguably, Whittoria is not taking Sarzonia's old land, but rather appeared on a massive island that is part of a three-island chain that's there (and depending on your IC memory, has "always been there"). Somewhere in the Julian Sea - we think - lies the lost nation of Sarzonia. |

Posted by: Farfadillis Aug 4 2012, 07:21 PM |
I'd like to claim 8 as my homeland. A little something about Farfadillis: Farfadillis was founded by a group of travellers from Scandinavia, a region which existed a long time ago. And it wasn't exactly founded, this is the story: Scandinavians found an island which had lots of fruits and had very fertile land, they wouldn't survive until they found something better, they had run out of food. So they decided to stay in it, they called it Scandinavian Dillis Colony. Dillis (the captain of the ship which discovered the island) decided to call back Scandinavia and tell them they had found a very useful island that could come on handy on a near future. It was populated and work started, they sewpt Indigenous people the mos evil way possible: torturing them. The colony had its come and goes but it settled well, until Scandinavia was attacked by a country which also no longer exists, there's no written evidence of which country it was, the only thing there's evidence of is that Scandinavia was attacked and destroyed, entirely. With Scandinavia's dissapearence, many survivors started coming to the Scandinavian Dillis Colony, but, to avoid being found by the country which destroyed their homeland, they decided to change its name to simply "Dillis", the country had lots of problems after Scandinavia dissapeared, mainly on trade, the pupulation lived poorly for some time. But, as time passed, a spanish-speaking conqueror called Farf Adaeles came and offered aidance from its country (some people think it was Spain, however, it hasn't been proved) at the exchange of becoming their colony. The Dillish people accepted as there was no other option. They would've eventually died of hunger. Again, the country settled well, traded with the country some people believe was Spain and became economically powerful, and independent. After becoming economically independent, Dillis decided to become independent. But, in honor of the man who had saved them from dissappearing 2 centuries ago, they named themselves Farfadillis (FARF Adaeles). There were some civil wars since then, but they weren't really important. |

Posted by: Pacifican Federation Aug 5 2012, 03:16 AM |
I'm formerly the Pacifican Federation. I'm playing the Protectorate of Port Hawthorne. I would like to claim territory #15. History of Port Hawthorne: Originally founded as a port city to encourage commerce between the United Kingdom and Pacitalia. Port Hawthorne flourished from city-state to a striving nation through economic expansion. Port Hawthorne gained its full independence in 1910 as a constitutional unitary democratic republic. Hawthornites celebrate diversity in their society. |
Posted by: Vilita Aug 5 2012, 02:10 PM |
You should probably use the port hawthorne account and ensure the factbook is updated through it |
Posted by: Pacifican Federation Aug 5 2012, 06:33 PM |
I haven't created a new account because I can't find the "Register" button. I just found it more simpler just to use the account I already have. |
Posted by: Port Hawthorne Aug 5 2012, 06:59 PM |
Sorry about that. I didn't realize that I did *create* an account for Port Hawthorne. Please note that I have *retired* the Pacifican Federation and won't be playing it. Under my former account I would like to claim #15 as it is dictated undeclared. Background of the Republic of Port Hawthorne Port Hawthorne is one of Foringana's oldest trading ports. Port Hawthorne proven to be significant asset to the East India Company as their central hub in the Atlantian Oceania. It was established by the East India Company in October 1612 as Fort Hawthorne. The site of the original trading post (now Port Hawthorne City) is located within 75 miles from the Pacitalian city of Pamagento. On it's centennial its birthday it was declared a Port. Several other cities surrounding Port Hawthorne were established. Port Hawthorne is one of Foringana's oldest trading posts. Port Hawthorne was founded by the East India Company as their central hub in the Atlantian Oceania as Fort Hawthorne in October 1612. Fort Hawthorne quickly expanded and became industrialized. Nearby townships were founded to support the every growing Fort. On it's centennial birthday King James VI declared it a Port Colony of Hawthorne, Port Hawthorne for short. in 1845, Port Hawthorne would declare its independence as a nation. |

For some reason Dominion of Drakia was removed from the map before I began updates. According to precedence set with Demot, Drakia’s land has been restored. This however leaves Naitpyge without a home. I am contacting that user via TG to find them a new home. |
Posted by: Geisenfried Aug 8 2012, 04:05 PM |
Alright. Don't know how well this'll go over, but I plan on putting it forth anyway. First, I'd like to point out that Estresse Intenso (EIT), Cafundeu's puppet, has ceased to exist. I contacted Cafundeu via TG, and he has no plans to revive or further the nation. So, if nothing else, EIT should probably be removed from the map. As you might guess, I'm pointing this out because I'd like to put an expansion claim on some of the former lands - mainly the southern portion. I took the liberty of making a rough map of what I'm hoping to claim, subject to general approval. As for roleplaying the expansion, well... don't know how well others will like this, but I've been working on a general history re-vamp of my country, slowly but surely, so as to better expand upon how the country came to be. I was hoping in lieu of an RP wherein I play peacekeeper and slowly annex/assimilate a nation-less region, I could instead just integrate the territories within the context of my country's historical growth. It'd be a bit of a ret-con, I admit, but... it'd make things easier and more congruous on my end. I admit I don't know how soon I can get all of that fully RP'd, especially with the WC going on and me not wanting to spend the entire day on some of this NS stuff, but it's something I would like to get done in the near future. Getting this sorted out would definitely help on that end. |
Posted by: Falcania Aug 8 2012, 05:45 PM |
I endorse this expansion, in the truest traditions of Falcanian expansion. |
Posted by: Andossa Se Mitrin Vega Aug 8 2012, 11:16 PM |
As the Vegai are expansionists as well, I have no problems with it either from an OOC standpoint and I cant see where as it would be an IC problem either. As fir the map... I have to figure out what is up with my photobucket account. Once it pulls up the newly edited map and the next time the former one. Whats bad is that the former one has been deted from my photobucet. Will have it sorted out asap. |
Posted by: Naitpyge Aug 10 2012, 08:10 AM |
It appears we need a new home. If #5 is still available, it's mine, all mine! |
Posted by: Farfadillis Aug 10 2012, 05:56 PM |
I was wondering if it was possibe to change Taaru sea's name, is it possible? |
Posted by: Falcania Aug 10 2012, 09:48 PM |
You kidding there, buddy? It's, like, one of the most densely-populated areas of the region, you'll need to talk a lot of people round for that. |
Posted by: Farfadillis Aug 10 2012, 09:57 PM | ||
Well, I didn't know. :/ It's not my priority anyway. |
Posted by: Falcania Aug 10 2012, 10:24 PM |
It's cool, just hang around for a while and get the tone of the place. |
Posted by: Andossa Se Mitrin Vega Aug 11 2012, 01:51 AM | ||
Considering your understanding of the prior claim of Drakia, I have no problems with that. You might want to catch up on the damage Wight caused when they came into AO as those islands caught a -explicitive removed-storm of damage that will have to be dealt with. Good luck in your new home and thanks for being understanding on the issue. |

I've been wondering for some time now if there's some sort of official or unofficial thread regarding that. I saw the notice that something could happen, then nothing. |

The only copy of the map in the thread is still showing up as an old one, alas. I know it's not your fault, ASMV, but I can see how it could get bloody confusing #ExpansionistProblems EDIT: Yeah, the link from the Region Page on NS also shows the old one. Bummer. |

In terms of shape, your best option is http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/cities/http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/cities/. Only doesn't work perfectly for Cyanea and Wight, I believe. It's outdated in terms of city detail, etc., alas. |
Posted by: Falcania Aug 28 2012, 07:11 PM |
Falcania is a little outdated on the city map, because it was before the vanity islands. |

What's this about a city map? I can't find it. Since there seems no better place, here are my Major cities: citizen population unless otherwise noted (District) Yeru$halayim: 801,000 citizens, 185,400 slaves (Yeru$halayim) Tel-Aviv: 403,700 (Tel-Aviv) Haifa: 265,600 (Haifa) Rishon LeZion: 228,200 (haMerkaz) Ashdod: 206,400 (haDarom) (Most slaves are kept in the Concentration Camps of the Judea, Samaria and Gaza districts and only bussed into the democratic regions as needed: domestic workers, window washers, crash test dummies, firing range targets, replacement meat during war shortages, etc) |

http://www.thirdgeek.com/maps/ao/cities/ It's also currently available by clicking the link titled "AO Map" in the World Factbook Entry.

Thanks for the link and the note on my new flag. It is indeed much better. However, since most of my really gruesome RP aspects are detailed here, I'm considering keeping the AATW logo as my avatar on the AO board just to make it absolutely clear I'm against this stuff. Not that it is likely to be regarded in this place and in its current form, but my previous list of cities may be safely disregarded except as a bit of a spoiler. I'll put my regions and cities on a map of my AO territory soonish maybe. (Still gotta do the IGCL rankings and I have RL priorities before that, even...) |

Further to the creation/discovery of three additional landmasses by a Falcanian survey team, as quite overtly featured here recently, the newly-created colony of Jay Industries would like to claim the smallest island thereof as its sovereign territory. |

Posted by: Farfadillis Oct 11 2012, 03:34 PM |
If possible, I'd like to claim 20 for my puppet http://www.nationstates.net/nation=anksgaard. Anksgaard is a nation with a democratic process to elect leaders. The most successful party currently is the communist one, having won the last seven elections up until now. Anksgaardians live a relatively happy life, with no poverty, but no-one really having an above average style of life. The nation is poor economically, private enterprise is illegal after all. Due to this, the population is overall middle class with enough to eat, education and healthcare, all for free. Something really important about Anksgaard is that its population is entirely composed by dwarves. Their origins are currently unknown (or maybe I haven't come up with them). Anksgaard already meets all criteria to get a spot in the map, despite being founded today. |

Do they have a forum account (If they are a separate entity, not a sub entity, they should have one) or RP/history/etc? 3) Link to your RP when requesting land in this thread |
Posted by: Farfadillis Oct 11 2012, 06:02 PM | ||||
Yes, it is my puppet. Also, I guess I misunderstood what Starblaydia meant by link to your RP, I thought it was the little info about your nation, which I posted up there. So, what did Star mean with link to your RP? Should I post an RP in a separate thread? |
Posted by: Starblaydia Oct 11 2012, 06:08 PM |
You should make a forum account with Anksgaard and post something in the National Information forum, such as a factbook, or some sort of 'entry' RP into the region in Regional Discussion. |
Posted by: Vilita Oct 11 2012, 06:09 PM | ||||||
One line isn't info about your nation. There is some leeway if its your primary nation, that you can link to a wiki or a biographical summary, but these should typically always be more than a one liner. To be moving a puppet in and putting it on the map, you should have a non-trivial backstory, and probably a standalone thread in this forum describing the nation, how they acquired the land etc.. etc.. While there is no problem having puppets in the region, many have them, making a one-line post with the 'master nation' saying "I claim this land for a nation of dwarves" is not how getting a puppet on the map should work, otherwise, we'd risk becoming a region of 100 puppets that contributed next to nothing, like some of our neighbors. Thats why I refute the statement that Anksgaard currently meets all criteria to get a spot on the map (As Star points out in the above post). They've done nothing and don't even have a forum account, I suggest creating one, and sharing the story of this nation and how they ended up here, before this claim (or a future claim by Anksgaard) is granted Otherwise, welcome to the region, and the flag looks neat |
Posted by: Farfadillis Oct 11 2012, 06:13 PM | ||
Oh, I didn't know that. I did intend to expand on Anksgaard's information. I'll claim the spot once I get to write it all and post it. Thanks for telling me that, I had no idea. |

Posted by: Blouman Empire Oct 29 2012, 08:01 AM | ||||
The main reason why I have made this request is because in the past I have RPed and always imagined my country to be apart of a continent. I am not the continent itself but there is part of it. http://nswiki.net/index.php?title=Blouman_Empire As you can see the land area is quite large, I have also written up the prehistory, on how the area was populated and they migrants into the area from this continent. I know I haven't put it online as I am still writing up the entire article (yes it has taken me 6 years and counting). I would like to continue to use that storyline rather then have to come up with a new one. It will also mean I can keep the map of the Empire and all member nations as I have pictured it. I do not think that I will be partially apart of the AO, I will be apart of it because my coastal border is on the edge of the AO. It is similar to how the US has a border in the North Atlantic and is apart of the North Atlantic but the entire country isn't in the North Atlantic, and if you made a map of the North Atlantic, you would on the edge of the map have the coastlines of Canada and the US. If you don't want to that is fine but I was hoping to have it so myself and others can have some reference as to where I am in the AO. |

Posted by: Yelvoldia Nov 8 2012, 10:44 AM |
I would like to take a place in the south-west of territory 8. My capital, Qervagrad, will be in the centre of my territory. Nation type: Autonomous colony of Slembana. Has a president and a prime minister. National animal: The badger. It is a European badger, like the one on the flag. It is currently November 2015 in Yelvoldian time (the same as Slembanan time) President: Lucas Bartenzo. He was re-elected in 2015, will begin his second term of presidential duties in January 2016. He was sworn originally in January 2012. Personality: Nice people mainly. They are welcoming to you most of the time. Languages: English and Slembanan are official. Yelvoldian is an unofficial language, but is recognized by the government. Yelvoldia has been in three regions. First off, it was in the region of Galhax (OOC: Slembanas puppet storage). Then, when its national football team signed up for the 49th Baptism of Fire and the 62nd World Cup, which was in early January 2014, the nation moved itself to Rushmore. Days ago, Yelvoldia decided to move itself again, this time to Atlantian Oceania. Yelvoldia was settled by black-skinned tribes about 625,000 years ago. These people were of similar ethnicity to the Australian Aborigines (as Galhax was off the western coast of Australia). These people saw a lot of badgers, and named their new-found land Yálvëldo, which means "the land badgers have". The French arrived in 1624, and colonized almost all of Galhax, and some other countries (including Slembana). The French renamed Yálvëldo to "Terre de Blaireaux", which means "Land of Badgers" in French. The French ruled over these colonies until 1724, when British soldiers invaded these territories. The British gave Terre de Blaireaux a new name, which is Yelvoldia's current name (obviously Yelvoldia). In 1924, Slembana was granted independence. Some colonies got independence alongside Slembana, but Yelvoldia was not one of them. Yelvoldia became a semi-autonomous colony/republic of Slembana. Technically, it was a half-independent republic. Yelvoldia had three civil wars against Slembana after that: 1953-1956 (the 1st), 1978-1981 (the 2nd), and 2006-2009 (3rd). All of these were lost. Yelvoldia moved itself to Rushmore in early 2014 before the 49th Baptism of Fire and the 62nd World Cup. It stayed there until 2015, where it is here, in Atlantian Oceania. |

Secundus Kasius' top officials request for their location at position 10 to be acknowledged by the region, as they feel they have finally suppressed the last of the uprisings, and are now officially a cohesive nation. We are currently ruled by the benevolent Unifier Haxtes Sicara and members of her family; she has expressed a wish that we look beyond our borders to have a more active participation with regional affairs, to cement our glorious nation's status as a legitimate country. Information provided by independent assessors may be found http://www.3wideracing.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2380, but Haxtes Sicara, in her infinite wisdom, wishes it to be known some of the 'facts' contained are in fact spurious lies created to destabilise her rule. |

Posted by: 95X-Scottfire Dec 1 2012, 08:22 PM | ||||
From the first post (and it's a common question):
I've always been advised to simply RP something, if I want my nation to be the land size of Australia or Nauru (yes I have heard of it before, I did a report on it in 1993) I could simply RP it, and it's that size. If I want to RP something else within NS-acceptable etiquette it's probably alright to go ahead with it. If there's a question on another nation's size; check something like NSwiki first, maybe TG or ask if it's something not mentioned. |

Honestly, probably not. Yet Sarz's claim is for the entirety of that space as well. It could be easily divided, but I need to know if it can be done while keeping both Whittoria and Sarzonia happy at the same time. |
Posted by: Starblaydia Dec 5 2012, 06:13 AM | ||||||
I thought that the Imperial March was for the Starblaydi forces? I think the best idea would be a TG to Whittoria seeing if some civil war/uprising/Sarzonian nationalism/political return RP to cede the land back could be worked out. I'd relate it to when Starblaydia (automatically, thanks to CH at the time) took over Legalese when they CTE'd. When Legal returned, we've since ended up developing a Germany/Poland type relationship, which is pretty cool. |
Posted by: Valanora Dec 5 2012, 12:12 PM |
Honestly, I don't see why Sarzonia should be awarded that particular space back. Sarzonia asked to be removed from the map as well as all IC history and Whittoria claimed the space shortly after. It was also agreed that Sarzonia's land disappeared somewhere in one of the seas. So really, it seems to me that this telling Whittoria to try and support a civil war for Sarzonia's behalf is a bit ridiculous when the claim itself really shouldn't be taken seriously in light of the events that lead to Sarzonia being removed from the map. |
Posted by: Legalese Dec 5 2012, 01:16 PM | ||
Certainly worth noting, though I should point out that my comments (even though I referenced them above) were more of an idea (from me) to explain it - especially in context to ASMV's queries as to why Snorth, Tachbe, Estryck, and Krytenia were all reserved, but not Sarz (and similar to why if Caf remains gone, I don't think it should be explicitly preserved, save Geis doing so for RP purposes) That said, a few things are clear: 1) Southern Cyanea is Whittoria's, as it was vacated by Sarzonia due to http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?p=7771386#p7771386. 2) It may not be even the same Cyanea that Sarzonia previously resided on - a happy consequence of the island splitting. 3) At any rate, a Sarzonian return will have to explain the reversal of 1 (though THE gave some leeway there, certainly), and in terms of land, must come with Whittoria's approval to split/share/give up Southern Cyanea. The opening of parts of Northern Cyanea gives the opportunity to pull a PRC/ROC-like scenario, if they're game for it, but other than that, there's no good way to do this other than a split, I suspect. |
Posted by: Andossa Se Mitrin Vega Dec 6 2012, 02:03 AM |
I agree that Whittoria's claim is the current, "legal" one due to the above mentioned events, thus any split of Southern Cyanea would require Whit's stamp of approval. It reminds me of my own return to find 95X happily relaxing in my two little islands. Now, I like where I am even better. Just had to get used to it first. |

Posted by: Audioslavia Jan 6 2013, 04:54 PM |
Hello there! I have traditionally roleplayed Audioslavia's involvement in AO as being via the tiny island of Kjeligsted, the small spot on the map between Naitpyge and Wight, with the main nation being a gargantuan landmass in a non-specified position in the southern hemisphere. It felt 'natural' to take only a small foothold in the AO region when I came back to NS, seeing as I wasn't an AO nation during my initial five-year tenure in the game. Now, ten or so months on from Audioslavia's re-emergence, I'd like to bring the rest of Audioslavia to Atlantian Oceania. The proposed change to the map is here: http://i.imgur.com/5q4G8.png ICly, a court case between Audioslavia and Wight over reparations for the flooding of Kjeligsted after Wight's sudden relocation into Atlantian Oceania has ended in Audioslavia's favour, and Old Shakerssen and his gang of crazy nation-moulders have been tasked with draining the thirty-eight islands that make up the archipelago, creating one large landmass. The drainage effort has exposed more land to the east, in the form of thirty-seven smallish islands. Naitpyge, previous claimant to thirty-seven of the original thirty-eight islands, has laid claim to the 'new thirty-seven', while Audioslavia has taken control of the larger landmass. Kjeligsted stays in the same position, while Silexhera is now the tiny island between Audioslavia's mainland and Starblaydia, a natural port between our nation and the many Audioslavian ex-pats on Starblaydia's Cedrus isle. OOCly, myself and Darmen (owner of the Naitpyge puppet) agreed to Audioslavia's expansion into one large isle over a series of telegrams sent in December, while Wight agreed to be ICly responsible for the work over a couple of TGs in October/November. The RPs for this change will be upcoming in the WC63 RP thread, and a link will be editted into this post when that RP (or RP series, depending what happens) is finished. If I've missed anything, then please let me know. Cheers, and I'm looking forward to being a proper, working part of the region |
Posted by: Naitpyge Jan 6 2013, 08:44 PM | ||
Confirming the above. Also, just to correct Audio's counting, it's twenty-seven islands, not thirty-seven. Also, something that I just noticed now, but the one of the islands which Silexhera would now be located on has already been claimed by Leorudo as New Tournet. I'm assuming that this will need to be cleared up, unless of course it already has been. |
Posted by: Leorudo Jan 6 2013, 09:49 PM |
Of course, New Tournetians would love to welcome their new nieghbors, as long as we keep the territory we claim, which is about 1/2 the island. |
Posted by: Audioslavia Jan 7 2013, 11:31 AM |
Ah, apologies, I'm not sure how I missed that. In that case, I shall leave that island alone and put Silexhera on the fringe of mainland Audioslavia. That's how I'd RP's it before (going back to 2009 when Silexhera were my only active nation), so it means less ret-conning anyway. Cheers for the heads-up! |

I will add you to the next mupdate. Simply provide us with a little history background behind the claim. Thanks. Please note that the granting of this claim for plot 12 on the AO map does not constitute responsibility on the part of the Atlantian Oceania Cartogropher's Office or the Draggonnii Socialist Empire for domestic issues that may surface due o the nature of the plot claimed. Jandaria alone is responsible for the health and safety of its people and international visitors should any domestic issues with native Purple Stinging Nellies arise. It is also the responsibility of the new owners to control any health anomolies arising from residual amounts of Nellie Scout Cookies. Please feel free to enjoy your new homeland. |
Posted by: Jandaria Jan 22 2013, 03:24 PM | ||||
Jandaria during a war called "The Great European Territorial Wars of 1805" won several new pieces of land, including a large piece of land in Atlantian Oceania. This piece of land soon became the main Jandarian territory. OOC: Good enough? |

Posted by: Lymryk Isles Feb 24 2013, 06:57 PM |
PLI National Map The Paradystopi Lymryk Isles (PLI) wish to be included upon the Atlantian Oceania regional map. The tiny islands are located in the far south-easterly corner of the current map and are of similar sizes to the majority of the islands of the Undisputed Atolls. (I have a map of just the islands outlines. If this would be more useful, let me know.) THE HISTORY: The Lymryk Isles existed for a great deal of time in complete ignorance that anything else existed beyond their shores besides a great ocean. This ignorance was mirrored by the outside world. The low-lying nature of the islands, combined with their minute size meant even the seafaring Vaians completely overlooked their existence. This insular upbringing and a continuing rise in the native otter populations slowly brought about sentience and eventually, the pteronurians came into being. On the off chance that they were not alone in the world, the pteronurians quickly claimed the islands as their own. Just in case a rival group of otters from another island (if one existed) tried to steal theirs, they set up markers. These markers were flat white stones dragged to the beaches and shorelines and painted with fish blood. They all depicted the chosen symbol of their homeland. 5 Red strikes. An emblem which appeared on the Lymryk Isles flag to this day. Some of these ancient talismen still exist. The beaches near the town of Konklu Dhingamfibrak display a great array of them and the town itself is a sacred centre for many religious pteronurians. Example of ancient talisman design Life continued in isolation for the pteronurians. Advancements were made in language, which began to be codified; philosophy, asking questions such as 'why are we here?', 'Is there any other intelligent life out there?' and 'why is fish so tasty?'; and the advancement of society from isolated family groups to fully fledged villages and towns. In an attempt to answer the question 'Is there any other intelligent life?', Flatnose Wobblebottom, the famous philosopher vowed to swim out in a straight line until he found something other than the Lymryk Isles. However, after getting lost in a storm and effectively looping around in a circle, arriving back on the opposite shore of the island he set out from. He declared that the world was shaped like the inside of a jellyfish and that their islands were in the centre. No matter what direction you left the islands from, you would always end up back where you started. He also declared that no other intelligent life existed. Such was the trust in Flatnose's judgement, the pteronurians made no further attempts to seek life away from the islands. Even to the point of refusing to listen to various sea-dwellers who assured them that other islands existed. So began many years of tranquil isolation, until the Paradystopi showed up. Several ships of Paradystopi pioneers had left their homeland a year of so before, seeking either to claim new land in the name of Paradystopia or ally themselves to a country better than Paradystopia. The voyage had been long and arduous and supplies were running low when they happened to notice several small dots on the horizon. These dots, turned out to be the Lymryk Isles. Their arrival was a great shock to the pteronurians, who had long ago believed themselves to be alone in the world but who had also never seen humans before. Initial greetings were cumbersome. The pteronurians, though curious, were deeply fearful of these new invaders and the humans, ignorant of the pteronurian intelligence. Having acquired fresh water, the human's minds turned to food and several made the mistake of attempting to hunt the otters. The situation quickly devolved into an all-out war as the humans held the newly-named 'Paradystopi Bay' with superior fire-power (Paradystopi Bay being the beach south of Po ê Tiknonsenš but is no longer named as such) but amazed by the sheer numbers and organisation of the otters. As the humans began slowly advancing towards the heavily otter-populated city of Po (Ĝh in the pteronurian language, pronounced Ghoh), the pteronurians called upon the sea-dwellers to aid their cause. As the Paradystopi established a base just outside Po, which they named Tiknonsenz, the sea-dwellers mounted an assault. The result was a terrifically bloody battle which saw many casualties and fatalities on both sides. As night began to fall, the humans surrendered. They lay down their arms and left their shelters hands aloft. Although skeptical, the pteronurians also backed down in recognition of the surrender. The following morning, the acting leader of the Paradystopi; Caleb Farringdon met with pteronurian matriarch-elect of Po; Brightthroat Stinkypaws for the first peace talks. Brightthroat drew the 5 strikes upon a rock and gestured all around, signifying that this was their homeworld. Taking a piece of charred wood from a Paradystopi campfire, Caleb drew the cross of Paradystopia on a second rock, gesturing to his followers. He then made the bold move of drawing the Paradystopi cross upon Brightthroat's rock, interweaving with the 5 red strikes before bowing his head submissively to the matriarch. The meaning of his gesture was not lost upon the pteronurians and after a little conversation amongst the elders, Brightthroat drew the 5 strikes upon Caleb's cross. Peace was declared and the rest, as they say, is history. (ooc: how's that?) |

Some historical and cultural background can be found in http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?p=13159096#p13159096. We actually ended up in AO via the whole helicopters-moving-us thing. We'd like that Maine-shaped area underneath old Krytenia, with a border with TIS and--importantly--no coast. An important part of this nation is its landlocked-ness. The southern edge should be a little above the word "Calania," I'm not too fussy about the shape of the border as long as it doesn't touch the sea. |

Almost all the islands on the edges of the map have been request-added over the years (and in some cases modified to accommodate a future claim; KC becoming Wight, the islands off of what's now the uninhabitable Sorthern Northland being modified, and Schiavonia being added and later modified), I'd have a hard time understanding why such a reasonable request would be denied.

Posted by: Achtklan Mar 30 2013, 09:44 PM |
It seems dumb to make this request when few others have assurances that I'll actually stick around long enough to make it worthwhile, but seeing as the original Nellietopian lands have been (finally) occupied by someone else, we'll make a rudimentary claim to the long, snake-like island off the coast of "5". Actually, even if the original homeland is unoccupied incidentally, we'll still want to move there. Forthcoming RP will explain all, although in not so excruciating detail. EDIT: can someone please change my name to "Nellietopia"? Last time I registered, I used the wrong nation name, and it's not even one that is especially important to me anymore. |

Hi, would it be possible for me to claim area 6 (the northern one by HUT) and the circular island by it. (The one located between 6 and Hut) And I'm not sure if this is unreasonable. But I've always RPed with Cape Marshall being on the left of the mainland, and the left provinces being more "Liberal" and the right provinces being more "conservative". So if it's possible, could that island be moved to the opposite side of area "6"? If not, it's no huge issue. |

The Neo Lemmitanian Ministry of Where the Heck Is Neo Lemmitania would like to lay claim on the Atlantian Oceanian map to the traditional Lemmitanian homeland in the northeastern corner of Audioslavia Island. We have paid a hefty sum in rent to our Audioslavian landlord, who assures us the arrangement is legal and that subletting lightly-used corners of the island is an acceptable practice. http://www.3wideracing.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2429 We are sending the esteemed nation of Audioslavia a telegramme requesting confirmation of the lease arrangement. |

So, I found a rolled up paper-bag full of monopoly money under our door, and next thing I know there's a confused looking intern telling me that the north-east has been annexed by Neo Lemmitania. 'Annexed?' I said, 'when?' 'Well thats just it' said the intern, 'according to the people in the area, it always has been' I frowned, and looked at the bag of monopoly money. 'Do they have more of this?' 'Their banks are full of it' 'Well... very well. They can stay. Just tell them to keep throwing these amusing pink bills with the mustachio'd guy on them.' OOCly, yes, we're happy for Lemmitania to have the north-east corner of Audioslavia. Looking at the AO cities map, we're happy to secede mainland territory to the tune of all points north of an imaginary line drawn from just north-east of Oljestaden to just north of Fort Nightpigeon (thus seceding those two cities in the north-east). |

IIRC, we knew you'd be back, so the space was reserved so someone couldn't pull a 95X on the claim. |

Hi AMV! Sav here! Can you make me an island next to the "Salamantic sea" inscription, it should look like http://mapsof.net/uploads/static-maps/finland_equi2.png. It should be the size 95X and the island should bare the name Suomi. And could you make a small lake in the south-east of the island? Here is the http://www.3wideracing.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2431 Can you also name the straight between 95X and SV "Danubian straight"? And can you make a long river(width of a borderline) like this: also, is it just me or the logo in the middle of the map compass is the US coast guard logo? |

This is the initial post to show a claim for a strip of land along the Calanian coast between Leorudo and the horizontal boundary level with Nellietopia, in the lands that are now Mckarthya. The story and permissions will still have to be provided. |

No. All of these bodies of water have been named after worthy current nations or ex-nations of some notability. Not by puppet nations with six posts and with the name having no IC connection to anything that's ever happened in the region. |
Posted by: Falcania Jul 19 2013, 11:29 AM |
I could declare war on you if you want quick notability. Because I'm nice like that. |
Posted by: Tropicorp Jul 19 2013, 03:56 PM |
Given this: 4 hours ago: The Independant Nation State of Leorudo ceased to exist. I'd like to make my intention to claim for the "New Almintora" port previously occupied by Leorudo as my initial claim, with the intention in the future of trying to RP / stripping my way down the coast into a small portion of the lands currently occupied by Mckarthya |
Posted by: Legalese Jul 21 2013, 01:30 PM | ||
I object on the following grounds: 1) A failure to abide by anything in http://www.3wideracing.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2346&st=0#, as far as I can tell 2) CTE'd nations are usually given a short amount of time to return and maintain their claims, even for events that probably shouldn't have happened in the first place. 3) While I also am reluctant to feel that McKarthyia should've even gotten a place on the map (due to pretty much failing to abide by everything I object to in point 1 here as well), that wasn't my call, and while they remain on the map, you can't take land from them without permission. 4) You know, actually at least, you know, trying to respect the rules of the community - as per the post linked above - before attempting something like this would be kind of nice. |
Posted by: Legalese Jul 21 2013, 01:58 PM |
Also, while I appreciate ASMV going through the effort to RP his expansion into Kagdazka, I do not appreciate his choice to just go ahead and give it to himself without at least giving us (that's all of us, not just me) the chance to say something. And I thought it would be your IC ally that was the expansionist |
Posted by: Tropicorp Jul 22 2013, 10:22 AM | ||
I simply stated this was my initial claim with an RP to follow, so as to indicate that it is my intention to RP the acquisition of that land, in compliance with all the rules you have cited, in case anyone else was thinking of doing the same thing. Please read my first post stating such intentions above the one you quote.
I clearly acknowledged that more would have to be done (Provide an RP and get permission from the current land owner's') in order to actually be placed on the map and I did not request any action to be taken at this time otherwise. However, given your noted objections to point 3, I would hope that a reasonable RP, with no objection from the current occupant who as you say, did not comply with the legislation, would be suitable to have a small piece of that land carved out for someone who, at the future time the claim is formalized and submitted as more than just a declaration of intention, will have been in compliance. |
Posted by: Andossa Se Mitrin Vega Jul 22 2013, 10:28 AM | ||
Keeping Kagdazka as a colony forever was never really a part of the plan and so I am not against relinquishing it sooner than expected as long as it is handled via RP, which was what the whole thing was meant to generate anyway. (this is what can happen when the forums grow silent and I am left to my own devices to see who is paying attention). Seriously though, all issues with the move can be settled in RP. I am in no way belligerent enough to hold something against the will of the community - OOCly anyway |

FYI- this thread was getting hard to read with the map continuously re-posting at 5500px wide. So I did the smart thing, and updated the link in the first post, since the map URL no longer changes Subsequent pages should now, no longer, be affected by horrid formatting due to the presence of the map, so long as it is presented as a URL in new posts and not an image. |
Posted by: Andossa Se Mitrin Vega Jul 22 2013, 10:33 AM | ||||
The issue is that the lands you wish to claim have current owners. Leorudo has only been in CTE status for two days which is not nearly enough to cause him a loss of territory. and McKarthya is active, even if not on these forums. I would need permissions from one or both before your claim could be accepted. Why specifically this claim with so much open land on the map? |
Posted by: Andossa Se Mitrin Vega Jul 22 2013, 10:34 AM | ||
You are awesome |
Posted by: Tropicorp Jul 22 2013, 10:56 AM | ||
And my first post acknowledges this and states that I would be working on them, so I don't see the issue here. |
Posted by: Legalese Jul 22 2013, 12:57 PM | ||||
Acknowledgement of this from them would be helpful, thanks. And ASMV, I don't have a major issue with you having it (OOCly - I think my IC feelings have been indicated), but just was a little surprised to see it appear out of nowhere on the map. Besides, it was a chance to be indignant - I don't get that opportunity all that much ICly, you may be pushing me into another totally unexpected international position, but that's neither here nor there |
Posted by: Maklohi Vai Aug 7 2013, 02:02 AM |
OOC: It was suggested to me that I should actually carry through my WC 64 RP line about the Lalo Limahina revolt with a map change. So here's a brief summary, I'd be glad to add more if required. For those who tl;dr, basically LL was dissolved back into MV. IC: The Governor of Lalo Limahina had long been tired of the Vaian rule. He perceived it much as a teenager views a parent: too restrictive and showing love at the wrong moments. The mother nation wasn't really much of a caregiver anyways, he thought in his paranoid mind (in reality, Maklohi Vai supplies over 80% of manufactured goods and over 95% of raw goods to Lalo Limahina). Coupled with a lack of recognition for Limahinans as a separate ethnicity in the mother nation (something ethnologists deny is a reasonable claim), plus adding in a good bit of paranoia and a Napoleon complex more severe than its namesake, the governor was ready to strike. He, collaborating only with his defense minister and using foreign military aid, set up a series of military installations on Lalo Limahina's north coast, tucked into jungle right by the beach. These consisted largely of mid range missiles with a couple places for infantry barracks. However, he did not hide them well enough. On a normal surveillance run, Vaian planes took images of the installments, which were previously unknown and unauthorized. This set off what is now known as the Limahinan Missile Crisis (OOC: Yes, inspired by Cuban RL version). For several days, leaders strategized and plotted, with the governor learning about the Vaian knowledge only a couple days after the fact. As the Vaian leaders gathered more information, it became apparent that although Lalo Limahina could not win a revolution, it could strike much of the main Vaian island as well as three outer islands. Vaian leaders tried diplomacy at first, but that did not work. After an address by the President about the situation, the entire island group, both nations, were aware of the situation. The Governor now was forced to barricade himself in his complex, as the angry Limahinan people protested outside. The Vaian military surveillance program then reported that the missiles were being prepared for loading and launch, with an estimated strike time only 18 hours away. Quickly acting, the Vaian Defense Forces threw together a assassination operation seeking to kill the governor and his MoD. The operation was successful, leaving Lalo Limahina at the mercy of the mother nation. Vaian officials decided to take back the commonwealth, making it an autonomous territory within Maklohi Vai. As such, they are under the same flag and accordingly should be marked similarly on any map. (OOC: RL equivalent would be demoting Puerto Rico to a status similar to one of the Canadian territories). OOC: So that's that. But there's something that still could be RPd: who gave the Limahinans the guns? I didn't think of it until now, but it could be interesting to RP if someone was willing to play the evil nation. It wouldn't be this WC, as I have something planned with Osarius, but if you're interested drop me a TG and we'll work something out. |

http://www.3wideracing.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2438&view=findpost&p=22778 The Dictatorship of Perlasilangan is looking for a new land to be called "home" by the Perlasilangani. After days of searching for unclaimed territories, the leader of the Perlasilangani Government, Dictator Juan Lucas (Juan Antonio Serafino Lucas y Galledo) has decided to take claim of the island at the eastern Atlantian Oceania, located near the nations of Starblaydia, Audioslavia and very much near Leorudo. The government is now awaiting for a response from the other governments that handle the claiming of territories if such a request can be granted. OOC: We would like to claim the number 3 location in the AO map. We shall have the trigramme PSL for the nation. And also, since I only realized now that I cannot edit the OP unlike in NS, I placed the national info at the third post/second reply. |
Posted by: Tropicorp Aug 21 2013, 09:02 AM |
With both Leorudo and McKarthya now having ceased, I should be free to craft my storyline over the next few weeks and take ownership of a small portion of the territory they have vacated, something like this perhaps http://files.atlantianoceania.com/rp/expansion/tropicorp.png |
