关于华夏东北部海角省海岸线等较大地理变更的讨论 Discussion on the significant coastline and other geo-feature change of Haijiao Peninsula in Northeastern Huaxia
Huaxia's northeastern Haijiao Province is currently regarded as a plain; however, it seems unlikely that the entire Haijiao Peninsula could be completely flat. I have researched similar flat peninsulas in the real world, including the Leizhou Peninsula (volcanic activity), the Jutland Peninsula (glacial activity), and the Florida Peninsula (sedimentary processes).
They all share a common characteristic: they are relatively narrow, while the Haijiao Peninsula is wider and more square-shaped.
Their coastlines are highly irregular, with many lagoons and barrier islands, but considering the existing content near our coasts, it would be difficult to add these features (especially in regions like Fuyun and Zhenhai, which have already been drawn or have rough planning).
The Haijiao Peninsula does not conform to the formation processes of these famous flat peninsulas (no volcanic, glacial, or large river influences).
The Dahuaxia Ridge and the northern Beita continental mountain ranges, such as Kauscha, Cinasia, and Kuehong, have a similar alignment, almost forming a straight line. This line in the northern region runs close to the coastline. I have reason to believe there might be a fault line crossing the continent in this area.
Based on the above reasons, I find it unlikely that such a flat terrain would exist.
I propose the following idea, as shown in the accompanying illustration:
I would draw some small hills on the western side of the peninsula. The blue area is a portion of the sky I casually photographed a few days ago, but its shape nicely represents the terrain in question.
The green lines in the diagram represent the main ridges or mountain alignments, indicating that this small hilly area could be considered part of the northern remnants of the Dahuaxia Ridge along the fault line described earlier.
These two points suggest that the western side of the Haijiao Peninsula would have the necessary support for this region, while the eastern shore could remain relatively flat (though with slight undulations and some scattered small hills).
Based on the above points, I hope to modify the coastline as shown by the yellow line in the diagram. The western coast would generally follow the mountains but leave room for some plains, while the eastern coast would remain relatively flat, referencing the area directly east of Tokyo.
The yellow-shaded area in the diagram could serve as a bay, but this is optional.
Additionally, I am considering adding a few small islands or reefs along the northern coast of the peninsula, following the ridge lines. These islands would be mostly uninhabited.
At around 2 p.m. on September 20, 2024, I privately messaged Happy Mouse Baby, who roughly agreed but also remarked that this is an equatorial region, where "there might be too many mountains." I discussed the possibility of not adding too many mountainous areas with him, and he suggested "urbanization," "like Tokyo," or the "Kanto Plain." However, since OGF should not be over-urbanized and even the Kanto Plain has some support in its southern part (e.g., Chiba Prefecture), and urbanization cannot alter the underlying geography, I disagreed with this idea and suggested shelving it.

讨论 Discussion
我认为,主要需要讨论的点为:①此更改是否必要;②如必要,此更改是否合理。
In my opinion, the main points that need to be discussed are: (1) whether this change is necessary; and (2) whether the change is reasonable, if necessary.
