 | Physical geography |
|---|---|
| An overview of climate, topography and landscape of the country. It is advised to also create a sketch, you can add a link to this (hosted on imgur or similar) |
The state would be mostly flat, drawing some inspiration from Florida. There will be some farming as the lakes provide rich soil to farm on. There is also a national park to the northwest and also state forests and parks to the west and southwest.

| A brief description of the territory demographics, economic development, land occupation, infrastructure and mapping style |
The territory is partially farmland, partially state and national parks/forest, and also has lots of lakes. I am going to place major population centers around the lake. I will also draw inspiration from Orlando, Florida and how they incorporated the city with lots of lakes. The economy comes from tourism and farming as there is rich soil left from the lakes. The major population centers will be fastly growing technological centers (drawing inspiration from Miami). Land is occupied by farmland, parks, and lakes. There will be a motorway along the coast and another connecting Dulac (major population center - Orlando type city) and other smaller cities to the coastal motorway.
 | History & culture |
|---|---|
| A brief description of the intended culture and language |
Since it is a US-style state the language would be English (Ingerish). There will also be native languages as there were people here before settlers. The history between the settlers and the natives was pretty rough at first, but soon they made peace. The natives culture also seeped into the settler's culture and there was a mix between both. It is mostly the same culture between the other FSA states but some aspects are changed. The natives also modernized and now you can't tell between natives and settlers.
 | 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}} template can optionally be used to link to the OGF map - it results in a nice formatted link. Or you can paste in a URL. |

- This state's location is very poorly suited for a Floridian-style of climate or inspiration since it's in one of the coldest parts of the Federal States. As mentioned in your previous application, an application for a beginner territory is strongly recommended before requesting a canonical territory. --TheMayor (talk) 19:52, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
- I guess instead it could be more like one of the great lake states, like Minnesota. Minnesota also has lots of lakes scattered throughout. So I guess instead of Florida it would be inspired by Minnesota. Thaman (talk) 20:41, 9 May 2023 (UTC)

Territory application closed |

| Your short edit history does not yet support an application for a state in the FSA. You are strongly encouraged to apply for a beginner territory to build your edit history before requesting a state in the FSA. -TheMayor (talk) 21:04, 9 May 2023 (UTC) | |
| Mapping done in beginner territories is eligible to be relocated once a canonic territory request is granted. |
