Hi! Im a fairly new user. I have already acquired my first country, Margüela.
I would like for someone to take a look at my first two cities (Catalina and Tarifa) and give a commentary or tips on how to map on them.
I would also like to ask if there is a way to know who made specific countries, because I want to contact several people around the gulf my country is located in.
Another thing I have in mind is if there is any way to make the editing map any bigger, since it only lets you edit at around -400m scale. This would be to build highways.
Thanks for any feedback! -Tom

Also, you can use the inspect tool (? button on the right of the map) and click on a way within the neighbouring country to see who edited it. In owned territories, this tend to be the owner of the territory.
To edit a larger part of the map, use JOSM, which also comes with convenient tools such as angle snapping and circle drawing.
Now to suggestions:
Layout seems good, although I can’t comment much without buildings… I’d say you’re on your way to success. Enjoy!

May it be that your cliffs show in the wrong direction? Correction is easy: only change the direction of the way.

@austinhuang in Argentina they dont include Calle, look at Argentinean cities. The user is Argentinean and possibly mirrors that.

I agree with austinhuang. I also propose to change names:

Everyone here have made great points. Another way you can see who owns a certain territory is to go to the Overview Map on the wiki. Overview Map
