The Deodecan '''Province of Ingerish Asperia''' is a closed collaborative territory in northern [[Collab:Deodeca|Deodeca]]. Think of it as a sort-of analogue to British Columbia, with mixes of Australia and New Zealand. [[File:IA ProvinceFlag.png|300px|thumb|Flag of Ingerish Asperia]]
The Province of Ingerish Asperia is a closed collaborative territory in northern [[Collab:Deodeca|Deodeca]]. It is inspired by the [https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=8/-36.527/149.606 southeastern] region of Australia, and the mountainious terrain of NZ's south island. It will feature 4 major cities (designed in an Australian/Canadian style) along with other, smaller cities, and mostly rural regions beyond that. The variety of geography will provide mappers with a wide range of opportunities.


By being a part of Ingerish Asperia you can help decide on the province's:

==Important things to note before mapping in Ingerish Asperia:==
Ingerish Asperia has a population of around 6-7 million, the majority of whom live in the urban areas of New Reydon (state capital) and Stonesipher. Other population centres include Baptist Bay and Ingerfort.

== Contact and Getting Involved ==
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 part of the province, 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. Other contributors should not edit within these reserved areas.

  • Driving side is on the right
  • Ingerish Asperia is a province within the wider country of Deodeca
  • The location you map in will affect certain aspects of your county (see below)
  • The province is divided into mappable counties
  • Highest terrain is in the southwest and along the central mountain chain
  • Mapping should be influenced by Canadian, Australian, New Zealand, or Northwest US mapping
  • Most mapping should focus on smaller to mid-sized towns and rural areas
  • Provincial-wide discussions should be made on the wiki forum
  • Culture and history should be influenced from colonial British history
