| A brief description of the territory demographics, economic development, land occupation, infrastructure and mapping style |
Language: Kalmish (German)
Political system: Social democracy
90.3% of the population is native.
The country's economy is based on industry, mining, and agriculture. Many sectors of the economy are self-sufficient. Extensive railway network, less extensive highway network. Lower-class roads predominate. Mapping style focuses on detail and realism. Inspired by Croatia and the Balkan countries.
 | History & culture |
|---|---|
| A brief description of the intended culture and language |
After many turbulent times, the country finally stabilized politically and economically in the 1970s. At that time, a program of rapid industrial development and social housing construction was launched. Cities were rebuilt in a new style, with few elements of older pre-war architecture. Industrial plants play an important role, thanks to which the railway network has developed significantly, facilitating the transport of people and goods within the country and driving development. The country is open to trade with other countries, but it has a militarized border with UL27a (a remnant of its turbulent history), which does not mean that it must remain so forever. The country is also developing socially and culturally, opening up to the world. Many social and welfare solutions are well developed, guaranteeing a good quality of life.

Hello Koziu, thank you for your territory application! Before we proceed, a few minor comments to ponder:
- I suspect you chose the territory very consciously, I just want to point out again that the area has so far been very inactive. If you are interested in some cross-border collaboration, UL27d and g for example also look like great choices to me, but if you like UL27f more that's totally fine and up to you of course.
- Please expand a little on the territory's history especially before 1970. In particular it would be interesting to know how Kalmish arrived in this area (also have a look at the other Germanic territories' history in this area in that regard) and if there was any native culture there before which might have left a mark on place names etc. (or not).
- Please think about some rough popoulation figures for the cities on your sketch and for the country overall. This figure is not set in stone and you are free to change it later as you seem fit, but it is encouraged to think about city size and population density early on for realistic mapping.
Looking forward to your reply, best, Leowezy (talk) 19:42, 15 October 2025 (UTC)
Okay, so I made new Territory application for UL27d and I think all the points have been corrected. Link for new page: Forum:Territory application/UL27d - Oustan Volksrepublik
