==River 1==
''Running from AR120-75 south to the Grand Lakes''


This is the official forum for [[Collab:Deodeca|Deodeca]], a state-based collaborative project in South Archanta. Located adjacent to the Federal States and Ardencia, Deodeca is a temperate, first-world Commonwealth-inspired nation on the Asperic coast of Archanta.
A name has been selected: '''Akogama River'''.


==History==
==River 2==
Unlike previous iterations of Deodeca that failed to gain traction with the community, the new Deodeca project is intended to be an English-speaking counterbalance to the Federal States project, for modern English-language mapping that is ''not'' American-inspired. Tentative history for the nation is based on Ingerish colonists settling Deodeca slightly before circumnavigating Astrasia and establishing settlements in what is now the southeastern Federal States. The two sets of colonies followed relatively similar trajectories; however, when the Ingerish colonists in the Federal States rebelled and declared their independence, the Deodecan colonies remained loyal to the Crown. As a result of this divergence, the Federal States became a more militaristic nation that aggressively expanded through other colonial claims in Astrasia while the Deodecans remained more peaceful, focusing more on domestic and international trade than expansion.
''Running from the Grand Lakes north to northern border''


As time went on, the Deodecans and the Federal States grew to have stronger diplomatic relations, culminating with the Federal States purchasing a portion of Deodeca (Clamash) to complete a transcontinental railroad in the mid- to late-1800s.

|| Defaced Ingerish Red Ensign with the badge of colonial Deodeca (or its then Ingerish ''Something'' name). Ratio (1:2) and colours are based on the traditional British colonial flags. The 6-point star is influenced by flags from neighbouring Ambrosia with the idea that the star may have some cultural significance in the Southern Hemisphere or this region of Archanta. This rather basic sketch is inspired by pre-1965 Canada where, unlike most other British Colonies, the Red Ensign and not the Blue Ensign was the main flag to fly. --[[User:Aiki|Aiki]] ([[User talk:Aiki|talk]]) 10:13, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

|| Defaced Ingerish Red and Blue Ensign (two primary colours of Deodeca). Similarly to Aiki's proposal, the six-point star is meant to be a symbol of the region (as it is present in Ambrosian and Lutecian culture). The insignia is based on some elements of Deodeca, such as the national flower, national crop, and the crown linking it to Ingerland. (This flag can also potentially work as the flag of Ingerish Asperia)

==Lake System==
The '''Grand Lakes''', as they are commonly known, are a collection of several large lakes in the southwestern Federal States. The lakes, for the most part, are hydrologically connected and generally flow from west to east, ultimately draining northeast out of Lake Leighton and down the Alormen River to the Gulf of Alormen. The lakes are fully navigable and are important avenues for commerce; numerous manmade canals exist throughout the region to provide more direct shipping channels and expand the reach of waterborne transportation.
 
In the below sketch, all lakes shown except "K" are considered part of the Grand Lakes system, although there are canonically six "major" lakes (or seven, depending on how one counts). Note that names in ''italics'' only impact a single state and, as such, may be changed based on the stateowner's wishes. Lake elevations, names, and sketch taken from [[Forum:Global_and_regional_issues/The_South_Archantan_"Grand_Lakes"_System|this resolved forum thread]].

Lake System

The Grand Lakes, as they are commonly known, are a collection of several large lakes in the southwestern Federal States. The lakes, for the most part, are hydrologically connected and generally flow from west to east, ultimately draining northeast out of Lake Leighton and down the Alormen River to the Gulf of Alormen. The lakes are fully navigable and are important avenues for commerce; numerous manmade canals exist throughout the region to provide more direct shipping channels and expand the reach of waterborne transportation.

In the below sketch, all lakes shown except "K" are considered part of the Grand Lakes system, although there are canonically six "major" lakes (or seven, depending on how one counts). Note that names in italics only impact a single state and, as such, may be changed based on the stateowner's wishes. Lake elevations, names, and sketch taken from this resolved forum thread.
