- Please fill in the information below to make a territory request.
 | Territory ID and proposed name |
|---|---|
| The Territory ID (from OpenGeofiction:Territories, e.g. AR123a) and proposed name of the country |
AR120-05. I'd like to name it Ponquin.
 | Physical geography |
|---|---|
| An overview of climate, topography and landscape of the country. It is advised to also create a sketch, you can add a link to this (hosted on imgur or similar) |
My proposed state would have a climate that would have warm/hot summers and chilly but bearable winters. Through the center of the state is a small mountain chain Maximum elevations of about 200 Meters though this number will be worked on. In the northern part of this chain, I may add some sort of large nature reserve. The Southern area would have mines, probably coal mines similar to Pennsylvania and W. Virginia, and the far southern area of the chain would be very lakey. Apart from that there are scattered areas of farms and forests all over the state. Most of the coast I'd use the Carolinas and Virginia for inspiration except the central area which would be more based off of coasts between New York and Maryland. (Map Provided below)

| A brief description of the territory demographics, economic development, land occupation, infrastructure and mapping style |
Outside of the largest cities, my state would have a primarily white population, especially in the western half. Within the large cities though, there is a significant population of minority groups. 9.5% of the population lives below the poverty line, though most of this is within the cities. Many of the state's population are descendants of Schwaldian, and Slavonian, immigrants. The state was formerly a large producer of cotton, thread, and steel, however, like most of the region, these industries began to dissipate in the 20th century. These days the state's primary industries are pharmaceutics, healthcare, fishing, and agriculture. They also export lots of these goods to other nations through some of the many ports. Main Highways through the state are FS-1 and 11, starting from the south these two highways are merged until the capitol, from here FS-1 goes Northwest towards huntington, FS-11 goes Northeast towards AR120-04. i'd also have a costal highway, state from an area somewhere north of Oleana to Rivertown.

 | History & culture |
|---|---|
| A brief description of the intended culture and language |
The state was originally settled in the 17th century by Ingerish settlers. During the revolutionary war, Ponquin was instrumental because of it's mass production of firearms. After the civil war some of the state's major industries began leaving the state for bigger, more attractive states. Today, the state is still home to a few of these industries but not many.
During the 1800's many Schwaldian and Slavonians immigrated to the state to work in the state's many factories, today they have a large influence on the state's culture.
Ponquin's primary language is Ingerish like most of the country however, Schwaldian is a very common second language.
 | Past mapping |

I've done a few small villages within Michisaukee... some have gone better than others.
Willimantic - This place was my first edit in Michisaukee, def needs a rename and slight layout change because it's waaayyy too similar to the real place.
Also Mapped this small airport
Also have some random little edits in a few places across the state.
Did two towns in the New User Zone as well, but it looks like some of it has gotten ruined..
I also have a few surviving edits in Wilthamshire but nothing real Notable`
