Des Plaines, officially the State of Des Plaines, is a state located in the Federal States of Archanta, located in the Heartland region, it borders AR120-41 to the north, West Massodeya to the east, Mennowa and Tennewa to the south, and Riopoderos and Apawiland to the west. The topography of Des Plaines is mainly a giant plain, however in the east lies some valleys, and in the west comes buttes that stick out of the flat lands of the state. The state has a few notable cities, including Steeletown, Thinis, Ascopolis, Riviereburg, Skiree City, Wheatville, Fillmore, and Imperial Bluffs.


Etymology

Before Ulethan exploration, what is now Des Plaines was called "Húraahkatuusu", by the Skiree tribe, the word roughly translates to "Flat Land" in Ingerish. The name "Des Plaines" can be traced back to Valonian origins, as when Valorian explorers were exploring the region, they gave it the name "Les Aéchantans Indigènes des Plaines", which in Ingerish translates to "The Native Archantans of the Plains". This was due to the fact there was reportedly a decent amount of Native Archantans in the area. Later the name got shorten to just "Des Plaines" when the Des Plaines Territory got established.
