The Province of Agawaskway is a closed collaborative territory in eastern [[Collab:Deodeca|Deodeca]]. It is inspired by the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Horseshoe Golden Horseshoe] region, and surrounding areas of Ontario, Canada. It will feature an urban, Toronto-like metropolis along with other, smaller cities, and mostly rural regions beyond that. On its eastern shore lie the Federal States (specifically, the state of [[Minnonigan]]), and the Grand Lakes Amanecer and Betaouais. Lake Betaouais is similar in size and shape to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Ontario Lake Ontario].

'''Agawaskway''' is a collaborative territory in [[Collab:Deodeca|Deodeca's]] Lakes Region. It is inspired by the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Horseshoe Golden Horseshoe] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melbourne Greater Melbourne] regions, and surrounding areas of Ontario, Canada.


== Information ==
To its east are Federal States (specifically, the state of [[Minnonigan]]), and the Grand Lakes Amanecer and Betaouais. The Agawaskway Collaborative also includes the Odeka District, Deodeca's capital territory, to its northwest.
Agawaskway has a population of eight to nine million (8 000 000 - 9 000 000), the majority of whom live in the largest and capital city of Kingstown, and its extended urban area, including the cities of Hatticany and New Winburgh.

'''The first map''' shows the administrative divisions and major population centres of Agawaskway. The province is divided into a collection of Counties and County-level Cities, somewhat following the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_municipalities_in_Ontario dual-tier system in southern Ontario]. While project participants will not be bound to a single county, users should not interfere with others' work, whether they be other contributors, or stateowners in the neighbouring areas of Deodeca or the Federal States. Most of the names on this map are subject to change and adjustment, to contributors' preferences.
Agawaskway is '''always open''' for people to join, regardless of skill, familiarity, or experience! If you're interested, [https://opengeofiction.net/message/new/varnel_maiser send me a message] and I'll get you started!


'''The second map''' outlines the major transportation corridors of the province. With a few exceptions, there should be no additions nor subtractions to the highways on this map (railways can be added as needed). Adjustments to the routing and edits to add detail to the highways are permitted and encouraged.

* Orange represents major, non-freeway highways (i.e. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ontario_Highway_7 Highway 7 in Ontario]).
* Purple represents restricted-access freeways (i.e. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ontario_Highway_401 Highway 401 in Ontario]).
* The dotted grey lines are major railway tracks.


'''The third map''' shows a general guideline for major grid systems in the region. Unlike regions of the Federal States, land was allocated so as to follow the coastlines of major lakes and rivers. The map is a guideline, not a rule, and conflicts between grid systems should not be a problem. Particularly in the northwest of the province, [https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=10/44.0051/-80.9352 this area] should serve as a model.

Climate-wise, the entire region falls under Köppen type Dfb (Warm-summer humid continental), with very small areas in the northwest being Dfa (Hot-summer humid continental).

= What are the rules? =


== Special Regions ==
On top of the [[Opengeofiction:Site policies|OGF rules]], Agawaskway has a few rules to minimize conflict and keep the collab running smoothly.  
Please do not create any new settlements with populations of over 100 000 people.


=== Kingstown ===
* '''Collaborate!''' This is a collaborative project - it's sorta in the name.
Kingstown and the surrounding regions are modelled after the urban areas of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_Toronto_and_Hamilton_Area Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area]. The total metropolitan population of the city is in excess of 6.25 million people.
* '''Don't delete without discourse.''' Since the mapping here is created by everyone, big deletions (though rare) should be discussed with the coordinator and/or the people working around you.
* '''Be sensible.''' While this is highly subjective, use common sense when you map and when you interact with anyone, whether it be on the map or on our forums.
* '''Map before wiki.''' While lore and wiki content are really cool, we should only work on that once there's something on the map that anchors it.
** This may change in the future


Being such a large metropolis, more advanced coordination of mapping efforts will be needed, to prevent conflicts, both between mappers, and on the map itself. More information on how Kingstown will be organised is coming soon. Collaboration will likely be modelled after the system in [[Collab:Gobrassanya/Gobras_City|Gobras City]], Gobrassanya.
= But first, a little bit about Agawaskway =


=== Frontenac ===
Agawaskway has a population of 9,497,000, most of whom live in the Kingstown Grand Metropolis (KGM). Kingstown is the capital and largest city, with a population of 3,020,000, and a metropolitan area (KGM) population over 7,200,000.
Frontenac is the second-largest city in the province. While it will not see the level of coordination as Kingstown, conflicts may still arise. Be wary of such conflicts, and try to work it out with the neighbouring contributors. If conflicts still cannot be resolved, you may contact the coordinator (information below).  


=== Other Population Centres ===
== Gallery of maps ==
Other cities may be mapped as per contributors' wishes, following the population listed in the Administrative divisions map.


== Contact and Getting Involved ==
<gallery>
If you are interested in participating in this project, please contact the coordinator, outlining the general area of the province you want to work in, as well as the inspiration you will take for that area. Regardless of your area of interest, you are mostly free to edit in other parts of the state, ensuring that there is no interference with others' mapping, or already-established mapping in the area.

Anyone with an interest in the region is welcome to join the project. Though you are not bound to any single area, you may request to focus your efforts on, and reserve a single county (or part of a county), allowing you mostly free rein within it, given certain population bounds and not deleting major highways and railways. Any counties "reserved" in this way will be noted on a list below.
