Geography

Orange Coast is located on the coast of the Ardentic Ocean and is bordered by AR120-22 to the south and west, and by Laine to the north. State is made of coastal plains but the northwestern part of Orange Coast consists of foothills. Along the coast, there are some famous sandy beaches.

Climate

Orange Coast climate is tempered somewhat by the fact that no part of the state is distant from the ocean.

Due to its subtropical climate, Orange Coast rarely receives measurable snowfall. However, on rare occasions, a combination of cold moisture and freezing temperatures can result in snowfall in the northernwestern hills.

Because the natural wetlands in coastal areas, several cities and towns keeps canals networks, like San Bruno, La Segunda, Sudbury, Stockton Beach and Warnes.

Hydrographics

The Quep River is used as the southwestern state line.

The Marlington River cross the state from north to southeastern, and divide it in two basins.

The Merrimac River is the most important in southwestern Orange Coast, being fed by (TBD rivers).

In northeastern side of Orange Coast, the Sutton and Alateska rivers are the main ones, sharing mouth in Sudbury Lagoon. But still are important to mention TBD River in north San Bruno, and Mariposa River.

State Parks

Major exception to West Hills, in Elway county, almost all orangian state parks are, really, municipal parks under state protection.

Main Characteristics

Bronson City

Initially it would be a planed city.

(adding more information about life style and people when editing this place in near future)

There is a funny rivalry between Bronson City and Jamesville. As Bronson City is smaller than Jamesville, but more important (as it is the state capital), jamesvillians usually consider bronsonians like "the VIP's rednecks". The same way, bronsonians refers to jamesvillians as "the old grumpies from the coast".

Frankfort

Updating this section when starting to edit this place.  ;-)

Jamesville

A not so small seaside town. Several auto-parts companies are located in and around it. Most of people are christic and conservative, but with no extremism. People love baseball, fishing, and cars. There are some immigrant communities but less than 1% of population. The town is not center or even part of any metropolitan area.

Despite to be the bigger town located in a touristic region, Jamesville is the less glamourized place. There are some few luxury condos and hotels, but the marshes around keeps the town a bit isolated from the other places in the coast. The inhabitants, usually retireds and elder people looking for a calm place to rest, are very reserved, being excited only when talking about motorsports or baseball.

A popular saying in Orange Coastand Eastern FSA is "When I retire, I will buy a boat, learn to play golf, and live in Jamesville".

San Bruno

Seaside city. A half of the people is black or castellanic, and maybe 25% of the population are immigrants. Tourism (beaches), culture and music are strong here.

Not about violence or gangs, but is visible there are a territorial division to several music tribes in San Bruno. Hip Hop fans usually goes to City Beach nightclubs. The Piers concentrate more metal and hard rock pubs, and who likes country music looks for some fun around The Ferries. (TBD)

As a joke, people from San Bruno ignores people from Lundres-LN ("We are not their metropolitans"), considering Orterrado-LN as their regional rivals. About "state rivalry", they consider the sudburians ("They wish to be us, but they are'nt even in the same county"), not jamesvillians or bronsonians.

Also, San Bruno is known by locals as "The Simple City", or only "The City", because several important places in the city does not have a name, as The Piers, The Ferries, the Riverwalk, etc.

Economy

Orange Coast is nationally known by its orange and lemon orchards, being one of the bigest producers in all Federal States.

Also, there are some important auto-parts manufacturers based in the state, specially around Jamesville.

The third most important part of orangian economy is tourism, because its widely known calm water beaches.

As orangian people likes sports very much, the initial plan of the state government was to spread franchises/ teams along all the main orangian cities, but actually it didn't work. The basketball franchise and the soccer team started playing in Bronson City but were moved to San Bruno.
