Please fill in the information below to make a territory request.

	Territory ID and proposed name
	The Territory ID (from OpenGeofiction:Territories, e.g. AR123a) and proposed name of the country

AR021 - Polska

File:Noun Project Map icon 1463108.svg	Physical geography
File:Noun Project Map icon 1463108.svg	An overview of climate, topography and landscape of the country. With the exception of Beginner territories, you should always create a sketch map to illustrate & explain your plans. You can add a link to this (hosted on imgBB, Postimages or similar, but not imgur.com)

Temperate climate, mainly lowlands, only a few mountains in the south, landscape similar to that in Poland (I will implement my project "Fictional Poland" in these areas)

File:Invest - The Noun Project.svg	Human geography
File:Invest - The Noun Project.svg	A brief description of the territory demographics, economic development, land occupation, infrastructure and mapping style

The rules are more or less like in Poland, i.e. the poor east and the rich west, more or less everything is Polish style.

In this area there will be a fictional Poland project, which aims to build a new map of this country, with different city names, etc. However, there will be some inserts from the Polish area, due to the fact that it is similar to the Polish one.

File:Noun Project languages icon 105908 cc.svg	History & culture
File:Noun Project languages icon 105908 cc.svg	A brief description of the intended culture and language

Everything like in Poland.

	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 think I'm doing pretty good at mapping, but I'll have to work on the scale (but I'll pay special attention to it now).

	Username & date
	Sign and date the application by typing four tildes (~~~~) without spaces or "nowiki" tags.

Territory application closed

Sorry, I cannot approve this application. There are a few problems.

The requested territory is identified on the territory map as "... a desert climate; most of the population will be in the north" and similarly at OpenGeofiction:Territory application#North and South Archanta it has the broad themes of African and desert. A broad Polish theme, with Polish climate, is clearly not compatible with these themes and the geographical location of the territory. I would suggest you look at Uletha, around the UL13* and UL14* territories.
No sketch map was provided, and in general the application limited in scope.
While we clearly have territories strongly inspired by real-world countries, I feel your intention was even more of a "copy" of Poland than is acceptable.
Your history of rule breaking means there is no mapping for us to consider. You will need to build up mapping in the blue territories (e.g. BG01), or request a Beginner territory, first.

The following resources can be useful in building up mapping experience: Help:Portal, Help:Making realistic countries, Help:Making realistic cities and also OpenGeofiction:Site policies
