OpenGeofiction:East Uletha

This page is dedicated to admin plans concerning the development and organization of East Uletha.

Sectors and commentary

• Cultural target-theme: new territories should either align with these or make a convincing case of how their concept fits in otherwise/justifies a change to the target-theme for the sector.
• Challenges: deviations from the cultural or geographical targets of this concept, low mapping quality, high activity
• Advantages: examples of good alignment with the cultural or geographical targets of this concept, high mapping quality, low activity
• Proposals and projects: outstanding admin-orga work to foster a better alignment in the future

Sector 18 (East Ulethan Taiga)

• Cultural target-theme: none yet
• Challenges: none (both countries are empty)
• Advantages: Blank area with great potential for interesting mapping
• Proposals and projects:
  • 18a – Reserved for a multi-owner collaborative territory, possibly with a Slavic theme.
  • 18b – Available to experienced users mainly interested in mapping natural features.

Sector 19 (Polar East)

• Cultural target-theme: native arctic themes
• Challenges: none (both countries are empty)
• Advantages: Likely a vast area of taiga, tundra and other unique subpolar vegetation types
• Proposals and projects:
  • 19a – Reserved for collaborative territory with native subpolar (native Siberian or North American, non-Russian) theme.
  • 19b – Available to experienced users mainly interested in mapping natural features.

Sector 20 (Central Ulethan Steppe)

• Cultural target-theme: slavic influence from the west, possibly also north-eastern European or some Germanic influence from the East
• Challenges: Large grey area
• Advantages: Convenient location in Central Uletha, could be an interesting melting pot for various languages and cultures with strong slavic influence.
• Proposals and projects:
  • 20c – "Little Sister" of Midistland in terms of function as chokepoint.

Sector 21 (Temperate East Uletha I)

• Cultural target-theme: Germanic/Finnish
• Challenges: unexplainable mix of Germanic, Finnish and Romance languages
• Advantages: some consistent large-scale mapping, nice coastline and natural feature mapping
• Proposals and projects:
  • UL21c – should be cleaned up. Delete, move or recreate "Vatican" equivalent elsewhere, most likely in west Uletha
  • UL21d/e – would User jak consider moving to a romance/Italian speaking area? Remaining Germanic theme would fit well with other territories around the Darcodian sea.

Sector 22 (Temperate East Uletha II)

• Cultural target-theme: Germanic/Northern European
• Challenges:
• Advantages: Good large-scale mapping across the sector. Countries in this sector are generally owned by experienced users, they have overall good mapping quality and appropriate use of languages and culture. No significant changes are to be expected in the area.
• Proposals and projects:
  • General – none

Sector 23 (Emerald Sea North)

• Cultural target-theme: native artic, conlang, regional colonial influences
