This page, and its associated discussion page, are intended to determine the names of prominent natural features within the [[Federal States]].
The featured map is a showcase of the best mapping on OpenGeofiction. It highlights high-quality, detailed mapping over a wide portion of the map. Not all featured maps must include micromapping, as large-scale natural mapping, or other possibilities are also welcome. The areas featured will be of outstanding quality. Users are welcome to nominate their own work or nominate the work of others with approval of the mapper. Featured maps should have a wiki article for the territory (even if only an infocard). Nominations are welcome, including self-nominations.

=Lakes=
[[File:Ar120lakes.png]]
==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]].

Revision as of 16:19, 23 October 2022

The featured map is a showcase of the best mapping on OpenGeofiction. It highlights high-quality, detailed mapping over a wide portion of the map. Not all featured maps must include micromapping, as large-scale natural mapping, or other possibilities are also welcome. The areas featured will be of outstanding quality. Users are welcome to nominate their own work or nominate the work of others with approval of the mapper. Featured maps should have a wiki article for the territory (even if only an infocard). Nominations are welcome, including self-nominations.
