Looks like a solid plan! The history fits perfectly with Arion's and we can sort out exactly how the two countries would have interacted once I figure out Arion's history, current status, and development in more detail. And of course, I'll contribute at least a little bit when the project opens :) --[[User:Lithium|Lithium-Ion]] ([[User talk:Lithium|talk]]) 18:27, 4 December 2022 (UTC) | Looks like a solid plan!

Fellow mappers, we would like to start soliciting ideas for a Kalkaran flag! There are a couple things to consider keeping in mind with the design: it should be relatively simple and with easy-to-manufacture dyes, since it would likely have evolved from the symbology of the medieval Christic (Ortholic) knights. So, some type of easily drawn decorative cross with simple colors will go a long way. Do not worry about the flag being "boring" or overly simplistic. | |||
It isn't required, but it would be nice to have some type of symbolism that can invoke the Cross of the Order of St. John (often called the Maltese cross) or other Maltese symbol to connect the territory to real-world Malta; we are not necessarily looking to replicate the symbol directly of it but perhaps a variation on it. | |||

Greetings, mappers of OGF.
We wish to present an overview for collaborative territory known as Kalkara, located in UL02c. The collab provides a homeland on OGF for the Maltese theme. Since Maltese culture and language are very complex, its background lore will necessarily involve other regional collabs. This is a project that we (KAB and Alessa) are coordinating, but we want this to be a fun project for the broader community. This discussion allows us space to coordinate different elements of the project.
Discussion
All official discussion must take place on the forum and not offsite. If you have specific questions you are welcome to message KAB or Alessa privately.

Flag proposals
Fellow mappers, we would like to start soliciting ideas for a Kalkaran flag! There are a couple things to consider keeping in mind with the design: it should be relatively simple and with easy-to-manufacture dyes, since it would likely have evolved from the symbology of the medieval Christic (Ortholic) knights. So, some type of easily drawn decorative cross with simple colors will go a long way. Do not worry about the flag being "boring" or overly simplistic.
It isn't required, but it would be nice to have some type of symbolism that can invoke the Cross of the Order of St. John (often called the Maltese cross) or other Maltese symbol to connect the territory to real-world Malta; we are not necessarily looking to replicate the symbol directly of it but perhaps a variation on it.
