I would like to apply for the territory UL10-08. I saw that the intended background was opted for English, in my regard a Celtic background can apply for this as well.

The land will become known as Tír na nÚll, a modern civilization with one major export product: Apples.

Besides Apples, there are related products like Apple whiskey, cider and dried apple chips.

The main language is a mix of Brittonic (Welsh/Breton) and Goidelic (Gaeilge).

While the land has a good fertility on fruits, the coastline is widely used for the fishery. Several fisherman towns adorn the rough coastlines and flock the seas.

There will be room for many religions, Ancient and modern, all with their own buildings and sites.

(There used to be a form here, but I can't see it now. If this application is not correctly, I will rewrite a new application form).

Currently I have been working on the Demo-Island, creating the fishermen's town: Bihez Vihan.

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

The land is at the coasts fertile and touristic. Most of the lands income comes from the export of apples and apple-products, while the inland economy thrives on their own production of wheat, fruits and fishing. There are a few meat farms, but those are rare, since the land is not suitable for large cattles. Another form of export is music and entertainment, for the country is versital and beautiful.

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

Every since the Roman occupation Celtic people have fled the lands of old Gaul (France and Swiss). After long times travel they settled on the coasts of Tír na nÚll. They took with them their language and cultures. An existing germanic (English) population was first battled fiercely. Later, on expansion of the population, the Celtic language and culture took over the old Germanic/English ways.

	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.

I have once worked with OGF, but after some times away I restarted. You can see my work and progress on Buhez Vihan, a small fisherman village on the Starter Island.

• Hello, Arbhin. Thank you for the application. I am glad to see you back. A couple things first. The area you are requesting is not quite the cultural fit. In the future, I would suggest UL11b as an area, which would also give you appropriate neighbours and the historical interactions you are looking for. More importantly, however, the sample size of mapping is not sufficient to determine eligibility for a territory. There are some good things in your mapping for a small village. I would caution how close the buildings get to the middle-point of the street, but the overall layout is strong. What I propose right now is that you apply for a BG territory and build up your sample size in an appropriate area, showing many different elements of mapping. I love that you have a village right now, but I would like to see other rural/agricultural mapping and even a bit of urban mapping sampled among other things. Remember that what you do in a BG territory can be moved to a canon territory down the line (meaning, your time isn't "wasted"). If you are interested in a BG territory, please let me know which available one you would want. I could set that in motion for you promptly. Cheers. — Alessa _(talk) 12:45, 16 September 2025 (UTC)
