| intro = '''Clamash''', officially the '''State of Clamash''', is a state of the [[Federal States]].  The state is situated along the coast of the '''[[Asperic Ocean]]''', with an international border with the '''[[Deodeca]]''' (Provinces of '''[[Peralia]]''', '''[[Nawagan]]''', and '''AR060-11''') to the west, the state of '''[[Tauhon]]''' to the north, the state of '''[[Sierra]]''' to the northeast, state of '''[[Riopoderos]]''' to the east, '''[[Wychelle]]''' to the southeast, and state of '''AR120-47''' to the south. Clamash is well known for the eastern mountain range. Other important geographical features in the state include the Henrietta River Valley and Limestone Hills. Due to its location and topography, Clamash is one of the rainiest states.

The largest city in Clamash is '''[[Wahanta]]''', with approximately 62.22% of the state's population in the metropolitan area (Trentonson, Meade, & San Ramon Counties). Wahanta is an important industrial and economic hub, developed as a port and rail hub for commodities of the West Lakes region. While transportation remains the principal sector of the city's business base, Wahanta has become a major center of the FSA insurance industry.

:
The state capital, Clifford, is part of the Wahanta-Clifford Metropolitan Area. Unlike Wahanta, Clifford is located on the ocean coast. Clifford is an older city than Wahanta and was originally a Castellanese mission. The city is home to the unicameral state government, which is the chief sector of the local economy. Clifford is home to Spiritus Apparitio University which is located at the site of the original mission.


{{Territory application id and name}}
Other important cities include:


'''TA001 Gharbiya'''
-Gantiac, which is located at the crossroads of FS-50 and FS-91 and is home to the flagship state land-grant university, University of Clamash-Gantiac.


Closed collaborative territory (more information under 'human geography' as I'm not certain where that information is supposed to go)
-Cook Springs, which is located in the Cordilleras. Cook Springs was named for the Cook Hot Springs, which are now a resort. The city is a popular year-round destination for locals, second-home buyers, and tourists.  The 1996 Pax Nova Winter Games were held in Cook Springs.


Gharbiya is a matriarchal dictatorship loosely based on north/western african and middle eastern countries.  
-Saunebago, which is located in southern Clamash at the crossroads of FS-40 and FS-91. Saunebago is the economic hub of the southern half of the state.  


The country is, in a way, a social commentary on the state of gender inequality in the middle east. While still keeping the project realistic. It's interesting how 'weird' and 'extreme' something can seem, just by swapping the roles, keep this in mind.{{territory application physical geography}}
}}


The country is predominantly BWh, with smaller pockets of BWk at higher altitudes. Overall, the country is extremely dry. Most of the country lies within the great Helion desert, consisting of sandy dunes, an old mountain range can be found on the western side of the country, giving respite from the harsh winds and trapping some much needed moisture. Thus, the vast majority of the population can be found here. The tallest peaks of this range reach no further than ~2500m while most sit closer to ~1000m. Scattered remnants of this mountain range can be found in the northern part of the country, mostly eroded away from wind and sea leaving mostly hills around 100-300m tall. Lastly, a third, smaller range can be found further inland, trapping crucial moisture in the scorching desert, serving historically as a stopping point for nomadic caravans, and today as an isolated minor center of population far inland in the hot desert. Peaks here seldom reach over 200m, but are still rather striking features in the otherwise flat desert landscape. Often taking the form of large plateaus and mesas. As for the flat eastern part of the country, portions of it lies beneath sea level with the occasional salt pans between the dunes. Most of the oil can be found in this flatter parts of the desert as well, leading to pockets of population. Rare earth minerals are generally found around meteor impacts which can be found throughout the country. Gold can mostly be found in the middle/north around Basaarat. Bodies of water are scarce and the country has no major rivers. Some intermittent rivers can be found in the west and north and the occasional oasis can be found inland. Many artificial salt ponds line the coasts for the purpose of salt extraction.
=Area=
Area = 97,488.91 square kilometers


Area = 37,640.68  square miles


The country has no major rivers, although several intermittently flooded streams and oasies can be found in the wet season, especially in the west, allowing for some vegetation and clusters of habitation. Otherwise, vegetation is very sparce, no extensive forests or woodlands exists, although the occasional shrubland or even grassy plains can be found in the mountains in the west. Otherwise, a lot of bare rock, cliffs and sand. Akin to Mauretania, Yemen, Southern Saudi Arabia, the UAE etc.
=History=
Before Ulethan settlement, Native Archantan tribes including the Pahareek, Burrakoo, Nantee, Lumquah, Saunebago, and Gahaha.  


[[File:Gharbiya1.png|thumb|Gharbiya Sketch]]
The northern Clamashegian coast was settled by the Castellanese in the early 1700s. Despite the fertility of the Henrietta River valley, the Castellanese only founded a few coastal settlements including San Ramon. The Ingerish eventually fought and won most of present day Clamash from the Castellanese. As per the Treaty of San Ramon, the Castellan ceded all territory claims in present day Clamash. After Deodeca's independence from Ingerland, Clamash became a province in the nation of Deodeca.  It was not until the 1842 when Clamash became territory of FSA through the Clamash Purchase. In 1866, the State of Clamash was admitted to the union.  


{{territory application human geography}}
=Geography=
Clamash is the southernmost coastal state in the Federal States. It borders Tauhon to the north, primarily separated by the Clamash River. Sierra is to the northeast. Clamash borders Riopoderos and Wychelle to the east which's border is formed by the Cordilleras. AR120-47 is located to the south. Clamash and AR120-47 comprised the Clamash Territory until partitioned. To the west are the Asperic Ocean and the Deodecan provinces of Peralia, AR060-11, and AR060-09.


'''Government:'''
Clamash is part of a region known as the Northwest. It is also considered part of the Mountain States, and the southern half is sometimes considered part of the West Lakes region.


The country is a matriarchal dictatorship led by the Al'dagher family. The ruler of the country has the title of Mansa and is currently under the reign of 40 year old Mansa Rukhia Al'dagher. Regional power and governance is entrusted to Princesses (Walinas) from noble families who control the territory more or less directly.  
=== '''Regions''' ===
Clamash can generally be divided into four regions: coastal Clamash, eastern Clamash, middle Clamash, and southern Clamash.  


'''Economy:'''
Coastal Clamash consists of rolling hills, coastal plains, and river valleys from the foothills of the Cordilleras to the Asperic Ocean as well as the northern extent of the Limestone Hills. 


The country extracts large amounts of oil and gold, as well as significant amounts of rare earth minerals such as iridium, Neodymium, Yttrium, Scandium and Terbium and certain gemstones like tigerseye and sapphire. This resource extraction serves as the backbone of the Gharbiyan economy and wealth distribution is very poor. Leading to an extremely wealthy elite and a very poor and very large working class. while the City of Al'Habr does see significant international tourism, other parts of the country have a near 0 income from tourism.
Eastern Clamash consists of the most mountainous parts of the state in the Cordilleras. Due this region being sparsely populated, it more typically refers to the northeastern corner of the Clamash around Cook Springs rather than the full extent of the Cordilleras.




'''Impacts on mapping:'''
Middle Clamash is generally as the area between the City of Gantiac and City of Rexville west of the Cordilleras. It consists of the broad Henrietta and Gahaha River valleys and the majority of the Limestone Hills. Southern Clamash consists of approximately the lower 1/3 of the state. It is relatively flat compared to the rest of the state. It consists of river valleys and rolling hills, and is split between the Henrietta River and Grand lakes watersheds. It is considered part of the West Lake Plains.


* Slums and extensive housing projects reign supreme, the contrast between upper and lower class is extreme as huge palaces and mansions contrast the unplanned messy slums and barren housing projects.
===='''Natural Landforms'''====
'''Mountain Ranges'''


* 'Propaganda-plazas' and overbuilt engineering can be found in most cities. With the backing of a rich totalitarian government, it is not rare to see 6+6 lane freeways and almost empty high end transport options, in stark contrast to the apalling and insufficient options for the working class.
The Cordilleras mountain range is located along the eastern border of Clamash. The state's tallest point, Meades Peak is located in the northeastern part of the state.
* Akin to what Imperator has mapped in Ta Ceti, Grand reconstructions of ancient temples and overdramatifications of the remnants of the Amn empire can be found here and there.


'''Cities and demographics:'''
While not mountain ranges, the Limestone Hills are a distinct highland landform located along the Clamash-Peralia border. Their namesake being the large limestone deposits found throughout the highlands.


'''Yanim''' is the largest city and capital of the country. A large portion of the population lives here. The city is dense with extensive slums and sprawls along the western coast and inland along a seasonal river. This city is in general quite poor, where the wealthy, including the royal family live further out from the city. Often in lavish palaces and villas.
'''Rivers'''


'''Al'Habr''' is built on the oil exports, the city lies on flat desert and has become a beacon for foreign trade, high end tourism and fancy hotels. The harsh conditions of the working class are expertly hidden away here, and this is the main city where foreigners can actually come and visit. Think lavish, inspired by Las vegas, Singapore and of course Dubai. All funded by a crazy rich dictatorship. ''Human rights? Not here.''
The State of Clamash takes its from the Clamash River, a navigable river forming the majority of the Clamash-Tauhon Border.  


'''Basaarat''' is a larger city on the western coast. It is one of the main industrial hubs of the country, with metalworks and foundries and factories. The city is akin to Yanim in its poor distribution of wealth, but more corporate, much of which is owned by a single Walina and her family.
The longest and largest river in Clamash is the Henrietta River and nearly 80% of the state is located in its watershed. The Henrietta River is __ miles long. The Henrietta River takes it name from Henrietta Prinkletter, the daughter of the Clamash Province Governor George Prinkletter. Major tributaries of the Henrietta River include the Udlith River, Big Verde River, Gahaha River, Ogatakan River, Indigo River, ___ River, and ___ River.


'''Lahrlan''' Is the Gharbiyan gateway to the Helion, situated in the middle of the desert on a periodically flowing river. Full of ancient structures and of course, oil extraction. Much of the country’s oil is pumped to here in pipes, refined and shipped out to the coast on trains for exportation. Al’habr and Basaarat are the major ports for oil exports.
The Yellow Frog River is the largest river in southern Clamash and drains into Lake Amanecer. Major tributaries of the Yellow Frog River include the Ingram River and Union River.  


The Grenoke River is the largest river in the Clamashegian portion of the Limestone Hills and drains the interior of the hills.


'''Language:'''  
The headwaters of the Jersey and Mullumbidgee Rivers are also located in the Limestone Hills.

The language of the country is a conlang called “Tamneidh” but naming is generally done in ‘fake arabic’. Mazanic is seen as a 'beautiful and cultured' language, leading to strong inspiration from the Mazanic language in names throughout the country. Many placenames in Gharbiya are inspired by or indeed taken directly from Mazan, but using the latin alphabet. Many of which butchered into oblivion by people who don’t actually speak Mazanic. Others will be in Tamneidh, but using the latin(english) alphabet. I will supply some resources for this language to members, but you won’t need it if it seems to be too much for you.
Most lakes in Clamash are either manmade or oxbow lakes. The largest natural lake is Floyd Lake located in the northeastern part of the state. Significant manmade reservoirs in Clamash are Rubicue Lake, Fawn Creek Reservoir, Lake Spalding, and Lake Louisa.


How to handle naming:


Think Hollywood. “If it sounds Arabic to a non-Arabic speaker, it's good” This would be how many of the names came about canonically. Someone thought something sounded cool in Mazanic, mixed it with a native name or Mazanified a name or word.

'''Islands'''


Discussion, information and planning:
There are several islands located in the State of Clamash. Most islands are either located along the coast or in the Henrietta River mouth.


Discussion around the project will primarily be held on a private discord server. Setting up a forum on the wiki would also be a possibility if needed, but most discussions will be on the discord server for ease of access.

The territory will be collaborative, where I am the coordinator and the rules are relatively relaxed throughout the project, thus, I see no need for official co-coordinators. Instead, everyone is a co-coordinator in their own way. Bringing their own expertise and skill sets. The collab with be invite only, where anybody is welcome to request to join, no official avenues exist for this process, and I intend for it to stay that way. More a collaboration between friends than anything else.
=Government=
===State Government===
Unlike most state legislatures, Clamash has a unicameral legislature.


Mappers can either map anywhere they want in the non-reserved areas or reserve smaller areas. These areas will not be predetermined but rather be fluid where mappers can reserve an area fitting what they want to do. And move on when they feel like they are done for the time being. An area can be smaller for someone who prefers mapping higher detail, larger for someone working on a larger scale with nature of macro mapping or anywhere in between depending on preference. For the people that enjoy the worldbuilding aspect, I will allow claiming/reserving an area where the mapper serves the role of Walina/Princess of that area and is allowed to worldbuild to their heart’s content. These reserved areas do not have to align with administrative boundaries and will be kept track of by me. The capital and Al'habr will remain unreservable, save for smaller parts of them.
==Administrative Divisions==
Clamash is divided into 44 counties.

===Municipalities===
Municipalities are divided into four classifications based on population. The twenty (20) largest municipalities as of 2020 are listed below under their respective class.


'''Metropolitan Class City (200,000 or more)'''
*Wahanta - 554,955
*Clifford - 269,277


Note:
'''First Class City (20,000-199,999)'''
*Sprucewood - 59,221
*Gantiac - 57,664
*Port Union - 49,124
*Land Park - 45,321
*Saunebago - 41,893
*Robertsville - 35,988
*Cook Springs - 34,719
*Huntington Heights - 24,952
*Dunlap - 23,897


If and when interest from collaboration members dies down, I will continue mapping the territory more akin to an orange territory, effectively making this project a middle thing between an orange and a purple territory. But officially, it is intended as a purple one.
'''Second Class City (4,000-19,999'''
*Wardsville - 17,520
*Morningside Hills - 16,882
*West Wahanta - 16,625
*Vista Orchard - 15,851
*Fort Bellis - 11,526
*San Ramon - 8,473
*Tauhon City - 6,715
*Ardentic - 6,117
*Grawton - 5,774

The culture of Gharbiya is quite exotic, while taking inspiration from many north african and middle eastern traditions, many aspects are reimagined. One of the guiding factors of Gharbiya is an old african style matriarchal culture, mixing with foreign influences. Leading to the label of 'feminist imani Dictatorship'. The religion is a special kind of Imani, in which most important figures are reimagined as women and many of the real world muslim gender roles are switched. Women are seen as the rulers of the households and men are not permitted to hold land or titles. Thus, the more common patriarchal Imani cultures would shun the religious practices of Gharbiya and few of them would recognize the country at all. Cities and structures are planned after the needs of the women.

Below follows a list of aspects to keep in mind for mapping:
=Education=
'''University of Clamash System'''


Cities built for women:
* University of Clamash - Gantiac (flagship campus)
* University of Clamash - Wahanta
* University of Clamash - Port Union
* University of Clamash - Saunebago


Administrative positions are held by women. Men are seen as built for manual labor and thus often work in factories and other low paying jobs. Men are generally seen as too impulsive and aggressive for administrative positions or military service.
'''Clamash State College System'''


* Transport infrastructure focus on connecting places where women are expected to travel. While areas where predominantly men work or travel are relatively underdeveloped. Industral areas may be located further from city centers, partially to hide away the polution, but also since the travel to these areas of employment are not generally respected. Women still take care of kids, thus, travel to and from daycares and elementary schools are prioritized. These facilities will be more common, even if they may individually be smaller in scale. Office areas and areas of administrative work are prioritized.
* Brampton State College - Brampton
* Names used for places or buildings are very rarely that of men.
* Cook Springs State College - Cook Springs
* Neigbourhoods and micro districs are common, partially as a sense of safety in numbers from the 'uncontrallable men' but also as a tool to assist in childcare. For higher income areas, gated communities are common for much the same reason.
* Muehling State College - Muehling
* Dunlap State College - Dunlap
* Clamash Mountain State College - Stakesville
* Confluence State College - Confluence


The religion:
'''Community College Systems'''


* Statues are allowed, while islam generally does not allow for statues, the idea of huge bronze statues of a dictator is too tempting to pass up. Akin to how statues of people are allowed and common in say Indonesia and much of Africa, they will be in Gharbiya as well. Notably however, statues and depictions of holy people will remain taboo and not allowed.
* Northern Clamash Community College - Clamash Valley (Tauhon City), San Ramon, Wardsville, City Center (Wahanta), Jane Valley (Huntington Heights), and Clifford
* (most)Mosques should have one side facing Maad, almost due east of Gharbiya. These will be numerous, and found in almost every city block/neighborhood.  <br />'''History:'''  The country traces its herritage back to the Amn culture, which once stretched across much of northern Tarephia. While the Al'dagher claims direct lineage from this time, many other cultures dispute this (Ta Ceti shares this heritage). After the fall of this great bronze age culture, the capital city was lost over time, rumored to lie somewhere under the sands of the Helion. Some ancient structures remain from this time, some preserved as ruins, others rebuilt and taken to extremes as tools of propaganda. After this, the area became ruled by several chiefdoms and kingdoms for millennia, chasing the dream of the Amn culture as the matriarchal culture developed. During the rise of Iman, the Mazanic missionaries reached Gharbiya and converted the natives to their faith, which the locals happily took to, with some difficulty. Travellers note that the conditions and manners of the people were appalling, women breastfeeding in public, and men insisting on walking behind their wives into mosques. Being far away from Mazan, and the mazanic sultans being happy with the conversion efforts, the missionaries stopped coming, and the religion remained unchecked for hundreds of years, leading to the religion becoming what it is today. Some Ingerish colonial attempts were made, but the locals did not take well to them, instead becoming a Mazanic colony for a time in the 1700s. Independence was In the 1900s, the country became democratic from outside pressure, but eventually voted to turn back to a dictatorship under 'suspicious circumstances' and is today, one of few openly dictatorial countries of the world.  '''TLDR history'''  - Ancient empire  - Chiefdoms and kingdoms  - Imani  - Matriarchal imani  - Mazanic and Ingerish colonies  - "Democracy"  - 'voted' back to dictatorship
* Eastern Clamash Community College - Marcher and Cook Springs,
{{territory application past mapping}}
* Mid-Clamash Community College - South Coast (Brubecks), Fort Bellis, and Gantiac
* Clamash Valley Community College - Quitman, Clamash Tribal (Bovina), Dunlap, and Thorbecke
* Southern Clamash Community College - Andersen, Ardentic, Saunebago, and East Ingram


I started off in OGF with mapping this very country, then TA019, remnants of which still remain such as the westernmost coast and mountains. Since, I have mapped Silland (https://opengeofiction.net/relation/507 https://opengeofiction.net/#map=14/64.7279/66.8538&layers=B) where the vast majority is my own work.
'''Private Colleges/Universities'''


I also map the territory of Tolulu,(https://opengeofiction.net/relation/350726 https://opengeofiction.net/node/300969581) as a more recent addition, where a warmer climate, more akin to that of Gharbiya is present, albeit more tropical than subtropical. 
* Wildwood College - Robertsville
* Udlith Valley University - Wardsville
* McKnight University - Wahanta
* St. Urbicius College - Wahanta
* Clamash College of Technology - Wahanta
* Lyman College - Wahanta
* Clamash Bartholomewan University - Wahanta
* Mount Mirgo Seminary - Wahanta
* Clifford University - Clifford
* Spiritus Apparitio University - Clifford
* Grawton College - Grawton
* Rancaster University - Cook Springs
* Verde View University - Gantiac
* Grace College - Supurb
*


And of course, perhaps more relevant, the Wilaya of Linya in Mazan (https://opengeofiction.net/relation/209980 https://opengeofiction.net/#map=14/31.1498/56.8092&layers=B) even if this area admittedly has been relatively forgotten about recently.

=Transportation=
The three primary motorways in Clamash are FS 40, FS 50, and FS 91. Other motorways can be found in the Wahanta-Clifford Metropolitan Area including FS 350, and FS 691. 
 
In 2009, the Clamash Department of Transportation started the Statewide Expressway Project in which significant routes would be upgraded to four-lane divided expressways. Due to a lack of funding, the majority of the project is still incomplete as of 2022. Completed expressways are CL 85 in Trentonson County and CL 43 in Meade County. Construction is underway and portions are completed of CL 47, which will connect Port Union with Tauhon City. Other highways designated for upgrades are CL 31 from Gantiac to Tauhon City, CL 17 from Dunlap (FS 91) to Wychelle, and an extension of CL 26 from FS 91 to San Ramon.

Loading map...

Clamash, officially the State of Clamash, is a state of the Federal States. The state is situated along the coast of the Asperic Ocean, with an international border with the Deodeca (Provinces of Peralia, Nawagan, and AR060-11) to the west, the state of Tauhon to the north, the state of Sierra to the northeast, state of Riopoderos to the east, Wychelle to the southeast, and state of AR120-47 to the south. Clamash is well known for the eastern mountain range. Other important geographical features in the state include the Henrietta River Valley and Limestone Hills. Due to its location and topography, Clamash is one of the rainiest states.

The state's name derives from the Clamash River, which's name is derived from the Castellanese "clamar" in reference to the former Blanco Rapids. Clamash has just over 2 million residents.

The largest city in Clamash is Wahanta, with approximately 62.22% of the state's population in the metropolitan area (Trentonson, Meade, & San Ramon Counties). Wahanta is an important industrial and economic hub, developed as a port and rail hub for commodities of the West Lakes region. While transportation remains the principal sector of the city's business base, Wahanta has become a major center of the FSA insurance industry.

The state capital, Clifford, is part of the Wahanta-Clifford Metropolitan Area. Unlike Wahanta, Clifford is located on the ocean coast. Clifford is an older city than Wahanta and was originally a Castellanese mission. The city is home to the unicameral state government, which is the chief sector of the local economy. Clifford is home to Spiritus Apparitio University which is located at the site of the original mission.

Other important cities include:

-Gantiac, which is located at the crossroads of FS-50 and FS-91 and is home to the flagship state land-grant university, University of Clamash-Gantiac.

-Cook Springs, which is located in the Cordilleras. Cook Springs was named for the Cook Hot Springs, which are now a resort. The city is a popular year-round destination for locals, second-home buyers, and tourists. The 1996 Pax Nova Winter Games were held in Cook Springs.

-Saunebago, which is located in southern Clamash at the crossroads of FS-40 and FS-91. Saunebago is the economic hub of the southern half of the state.

Area = 97,488.91 square kilometers

Area = 37,640.68 square miles

History

Before Ulethan settlement, Native Archantan tribes including the Pahareek, Burrakoo, Nantee, Lumquah, Saunebago, and Gahaha.

The northern Clamashegian coast was settled by the Castellanese in the early 1700s. Despite the fertility of the Henrietta River valley, the Castellanese only founded a few coastal settlements including San Ramon. The Ingerish eventually fought and won most of present day Clamash from the Castellanese. As per the Treaty of San Ramon, the Castellan ceded all territory claims in present day Clamash. After Deodeca's independence from Ingerland, Clamash became a province in the nation of Deodeca. It was not until the 1842 when Clamash became territory of FSA through the Clamash Purchase. In 1866, the State of Clamash was admitted to the union.

Geography

Clamash is the southernmost coastal state in the Federal States. It borders Tauhon to the north, primarily separated by the Clamash River. Sierra is to the northeast. Clamash borders Riopoderos and Wychelle to the east which's border is formed by the Cordilleras. AR120-47 is located to the south. Clamash and AR120-47 comprised the Clamash Territory until partitioned. To the west are the Asperic Ocean and the Deodecan provinces of Peralia, AR060-11, and AR060-09.

Clamash is part of a region known as the Northwest. It is also considered part of the Mountain States, and the southern half is sometimes considered part of the West Lakes region.

Regions

Clamash can generally be divided into four regions: coastal Clamash, eastern Clamash, middle Clamash, and southern Clamash.

Coastal Clamash consists of rolling hills, coastal plains, and river valleys from the foothills of the Cordilleras to the Asperic Ocean as well as the northern extent of the Limestone Hills.

Eastern Clamash consists of the most mountainous parts of the state in the Cordilleras. Due this region being sparsely populated, it more typically refers to the northeastern corner of the Clamash around Cook Springs rather than the full extent of the Cordilleras.


Middle Clamash is generally as the area between the City of Gantiac and City of Rexville west of the Cordilleras. It consists of the broad Henrietta and Gahaha River valleys and the majority of the Limestone Hills. Southern Clamash consists of approximately the lower 1/3 of the state. It is relatively flat compared to the rest of the state. It consists of river valleys and rolling hills, and is split between the Henrietta River and Grand lakes watersheds. It is considered part of the West Lake Plains.

Natural Landforms

Mountain Ranges

The Cordilleras mountain range is located along the eastern border of Clamash. The state's tallest point, Meades Peak is located in the northeastern part of the state.

While not mountain ranges, the Limestone Hills are a distinct highland landform located along the Clamash-Peralia border. Their namesake being the large limestone deposits found throughout the highlands.

Rivers

The State of Clamash takes its from the Clamash River, a navigable river forming the majority of the Clamash-Tauhon Border.

The longest and largest river in Clamash is the Henrietta River and nearly 80% of the state is located in its watershed. The Henrietta River is __ miles long. The Henrietta River takes it name from Henrietta Prinkletter, the daughter of the Clamash Province Governor George Prinkletter. Major tributaries of the Henrietta River include the Udlith River, Big Verde River, Gahaha River, Ogatakan River, Indigo River, ___ River, and ___ River.

The Yellow Frog River is the largest river in southern Clamash and drains into Lake Amanecer. Major tributaries of the Yellow Frog River include the Ingram River and Union River.

The Grenoke River is the largest river in the Clamashegian portion of the Limestone Hills and drains the interior of the hills.

The headwaters of the Jersey and Mullumbidgee Rivers are also located in the Limestone Hills.
