Thank you Leo for your application. The territory you've requested is pretty large (about the size of US State of Montana) for new mapper with 12 changesets. As you may have seen, each continent has its own themes and your "history & culture" doesn't really fit in Antarephia.

To build up some experience, I would recommend you request a temporary beginner territory. How about BG20? --Aiki (talk) 20:52, 28 May 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for your recommendation,

If you want, I can change my country's culture and history to fit better into the continent.Please, which traits I would have to use?

Thank you --Leo (talk) 04:49, 29 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi Leo,

Guidelines to continents are detailed in the link I provided. That being said, the recommendation/advise is mostly on the first part: lack of mapping experience to managed an almost 400,000km² territory. Please let me know if you're interested in a beginner territory otherwise this application will have to be closed.

Please sign your posts with --~~~~. On saving your update, your username is automatically indicated and the update timestamped.

Hi Leo,

To sign, you shouldn't use the nowiki tag. I used it in my response because without it, it would have been saved as my own signature as the updating user.

You are now owner of beginner territory BG20. Please read the corresponding guidelines.

Happy mapping, --Aiki (talk) 14:01, 29 May 2023 (UTC)

	Territory application approved
	BG20 is yours. As this is a beginner territory, please read the corresponding guidelines. --Aiki (talk) 14:01, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
