The Territory ID (from OpenGeofiction:Territories, e.g. AR123a) and proposed name of the country


As per correspondence, filling out as such.

The Principality of Kinglavia is an independent microstate inspired by Bhutan and Andorra. It speaks Kanglapolish, but is an absolute monarchy and generally isolated from the rest of the world.

It will be a regular-owned territory split from a bit of Bai and Kanglapo, which is already regular-owned by myself.

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)

I have laid out the general layout of the microstate. Due to its location on the Dongket Ridge, Kinglavia consists predominantly of rugged mountains. It is connected to Bai and Kanglapo via three main roads.

A brief description of the territory demographics, economic development, land occupation, infrastructure and mapping style

The main population centre is Kingketcheong, its capital, with other smaller villages along the main roads of the microstate. It is not meant to be well-developed although the principality in recent years is modernising.

Noun Project languages icon 105908 cc.svgHistory & culture
A brief description of the intended culture and language


Katayan nomadic tribes have settled on the ridge since 500 BC and facilitated trade between Kanglapo and Bai across the rugged terrain. As Suria claimed control of Kanglapo proper during the war against Bai, the Katayan rebels led by its self-proclaimed king fled to the mountains and managed to defend itself. Since the establishment of the principality, it remained isolated until the 20th century when it established formal relations with communist Kanglapo and the Bai Empire.

In creating the proposed territory you were careful to maintain the relative sizes of the territory you own, vs the territory you coordinate. However, please maintain Kinglavia as admin_level 3 within AR915, and therefore part of your existing own territory. Thanks/wangi (talk) 18:06, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
