OpenGeofiction
Hello! I’m balthier4321, I’ve recently rejoined OpenGeofiction after a roughly 1 year hiatus. Unfortunately I had to leave OGF shortly after joining due to vision related medical issues, but now things have stabilized and I’m ready to get back at it.
Over that time I have been working on an anthology of short stories set in the fictional country of Oscadia detailing the rise and fall of governments, some peaceful transitions and some not over the nation’s history. And after looking for programs and communities dedicated to mapping fictional countries I ended up finding this place again.
I’m looking forward to finally getting all the locations and cities that I’ve been dreaming up for the past months down in a more… easy to understand format than just crudely drawn maps on notebook paper. My request for territory is still pending, but once that is done I can’t wait to show you all!

Where is your territory going to be located?

@zhenkang
The territory I have applied for is AN150i in the Yersinian Gulf in southern Antarephia. https://opengeofiction.net/#map=7/-59.889/73.499

Looks a bit big for you… Given your nation I would have suggested a little bit further up north in Antarephia. Cos your neighbours are conlangs and SEA inspired which doesnt fit.

I never said my country was not going to be SEA inspired. And I have done some work in the past with conlangs when I was in university studying linguistics.
I have put quite a bit of thought into this, and did not just pick a territory at random.

Oooh, nice. We could be neighbors! I’m Suya Ahn, just to the east. I look forward to seeing what you do!

I really like what you have done with Suya Ahn, The city Ynn looks amazing.
