Yes, I know I still don't meet the 14-day threshold to request a green territory; but I just want to ask - what would be a recommended territory for a country with a general Filipino theme?

As for my style of mapping, you may want to view [https://opengeofiction.net/#map=16/12.4897/-112.0194&layers=B]. Focus on the area south of Marsenac (ignore Marsenac itself, it looks too European for my tastes) as that is where I'm demonstrating my style of suburban "Imus-style" mapping. For urban areas I'll take inspiration primarily from Manila. This will probably be my first option.

:You should check [[OGF:Territories]] where claimable territories are marked on map. There is whole region in North Archanta which is supposed to have South-East Asian mapping theme. There are several territories mapped in Indonesian languages, there was another Filipino territory etc. The range of remaining available territories is not large but there are a few remaining to choose, maybe you will find there something suitable. Personally I would be much more happy to see a Filipino country than another FSA state because European-like territories are a bit overrepresented on map.
:AR902 wasn't started as Filipino territory but a sandbox without any cultural theme (it's still blue, available for everyone,territory on map) and the new idea wasn't really applied to it, because it's probably too foreign for most new mappers. You may however try Filipino style mapping there. Also before you will decide to ask for a territory for yourself, try some natural mapping like forests, lakes, rivers and all that stuff. Admins will ask about it if you want a territory larger than a city-state q. Happy mapping, [[User:Rustem Pasha|Rustem Pasha]] ([[User talk:Rustem Pasha|talk]]) 07:12, 29 July 2023 (UTC)

Yes, I know I still don't meet the 14-day threshold to request a green territory; but I just want to ask - what would be a recommended territory for a country with a general Filipino?

As for my style of mapping, you may want to view [1]. Focus on the area south of Marsenac (ignore Marsenac itself, it looks too European for my tastes) as that is where I'm demonstrating my style of suburban "Imus-style" mapping. For urban areas I'll take inspiration primarily from Manila. This will probably be my first option.

I am aware of the blue territory of AR902 with a Filipino style for the southwest, but I don't feel like the current state of the mapping in that area matches my own interpretation of "Filipino style".

A second option I have for my OpenGeofiction mapping career, if there is no place for a Filipino-style territory, is to continue mapping in Michisaukee and eventually apply for AR120-08 when I feel that I am experienced enough. For a taste of my American-style mapping, see Lemuria, Michisaukee.
