Landscape

Ateria is one of the five landlocked provinces. That said, it does contain a portion of the largest lake: Lake Oachanuntakan (OA). This lake is fed mostly by the Ateria River and Winding River, the former of which is an amalgamation of the Ateria, Ruby, and Kelekel Rivers.

Climate

Being surrounded by mountains, Ateria experiences significantly more precipitation in the south than neighbouring provinces due to trapped moisture. The north of the province has a CSB to BSH Koppen classification while the south (Midway and S) has a DFB (cool, no dry season, warm summers). However, the same can not be said about the north which is rather dry and has a Semiarid classification.

Government Database

Everything is logged by the Government of Ateria. Buildings are logged by the last six of seven digits of their postal code. Citizens are given an integer value from C-00000001 to C-99999999. C-codes are for citizens. R-Codes are for permanent residents and may be assigned a value from 0 to 100 million. After a person is deceased their number is NOT freed up

Regions, Districts, and Post

Ateria uses a dual-hierarchial system for subdenominations of land use. Province -> Region (ABCDEF) Region -> District (Region letter plus a number from 0-99) These are used for electoral boundaries, post service and provincial/national matters. Towns and cities are independent but in most cases follow district boundaries.

Post system follows lnlnln format, like Canada. This is divided in to [Province][District-subdist (2 chars)][Code(3chars)] followed by a letter descriptor. There are 12 million possible unique postal codes. The last 6 characters of a buildings postal code (including the descriptor) are used for the SystemBuildingCode.
