	Territory ID and proposed name
	The Territory ID (from OpenGeofiction:Territories, e.g. AR123a) and proposed name of the country

AN137a - Gozia

Third time lucky... (hopefully)

	Physical geography
	An overview of climate, topography and landscape of the country. With the exception of Beginner territories, you should always create a sketch map to illustrate & explain your plans. You can add a link to this (hosted on imgBB, Postimages or similar, but not imgur.com)

It will have a temperate climate similar to that of Tasmania and Victoria in Australia.

The largest cities will be in the North-east of the territory.

As you move further west the terrain becomes more mountainous, with the highest range on the western border.

	Human geography
	A brief description of the territory demographics, economic development, land occupation, infrastructure and mapping style

The two biggest cities will be the ones mentioned earlier. The larger of the two, the capital, will be on the lake. The other is on the northern border. A few more major, but smaller cities exist throughout which will be connected by motorway and railway. Along these routes will also be small and quaint rural towns, villages and hamlets.

In the alpine regions will be ski villages and resorts which will be accessible by road and sometimes rail depending on the surrounding terrain. These are sort of Scandinavian-inspired.

The mapping style will loosely resemble British and Australian, with aspects of other European countries. Driving side is on the left.

	History & culture
	A brief description of the intended culture and language

The main spoken language will be English (Ingerish)

There exists a long history in the rural towns, they have small, old heritage buildings and historic sites.

Whereas the cities were established more recently and are thus more modern.

	Past mapping
	To support your request provide links to areas of OGF mapping which showcase your mapping skill. Mapping relevant to the requested theme & geography is especially useful.
	The {{coord}}, {{node}}, {{relation}} or {{scalehelper}} templates can optionally be used to link to the OGF map - they result in nicely formatted links. Or you can paste in a URL.
