Agawaskway has a population of eight to nine million (8 000 000 - 9 000 000), the majority of whom live in the largest and capital city of Kingstown, and its extended urban area, including the cities of Hatticany and New Winburgh.
Agawaskway has a population of 9 497 000, the majority of whom live in the largest and capital city of Kingstown (and its extended urban area). This map shows the Kingstown Grand Metropolis, the "official" metropolitan area of Kingstown.

'''The first map''' shows the administrative divisions and major population centres of Agawaskway. The province is divided into a collection of Counties and County-level Cities, somewhat following the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_municipalities_in_Ontario dual-tier system in southern Ontario]. While project participants will not be bound to a single county, users should not interfere with others' work, whether they be other contributors, or stateowners in the neighbouring areas of Deodeca or the Federal States. Most of the names on this map are subject to change and adjustment, to contributors' preferences.

== Special Regions ==
Please do not create any new cities with a population over 100 000. Agawaskway has been completely subdivided into 31 counties and county-level cities, each with calculated population values. Statistics can be viewed on [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OkM-GYdSnh8veUCrNDjo_Ewi5bPG6aTEtcGM_N3QItA/edit#gid=151891510 this spreadsheet].
Please do not create any new settlements with populations of over 100 000 people.
 
= Kingstown =
 
'''Kingstown''' is the capital and largest city of Agawaskway. According to [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OkM-GYdSnh8veUCrNDjo_Ewi5bPG6aTEtcGM_N3QItA/edit?usp=sharing KGM Data], the city has an urban population of 3 002 000, with the Kingstown Grand Metropolis (KGM) having a population of 6 418 000. The region is quickly growing, with people from all over the OGF world moving and mapping there. It is one of the world's truly cosmopolitan cities.
 
Moving one step further, the greater region of Southwest Agawaskway (SWA) adds more distant cities to the "Kingstown" label, as well as very rural areas on the outskirts of the city. Combined, SWA has a population of 6 970 000.
 
The Kingstown Project is part of the closed collaborative territory Agawaskway, but is '''open to everyone''' wishing to contribute. All you have to do is message [https://opengeofiction.net/user/varnel_maiser varnel_maiser] with what you want to work on. It's a really straightforward process, and there's something for everyone in this project.
 
* '''''Note:''' "The Kingstown Project" encompasses all of SWA.''
 
From mapping ethnic enclaves in the city, working on realistic local and regional public transportation networks, and understanding complex administrative structures that form every government, there is always a need for mappers to contribute to this project. That's right, '''we need you to help us build this city'''.
 
The collaboration structure of the city is very loose, with contributors focusing on one ward of the city, one major system of the city, or making sporadic and occasional edits of all sorts. Deep collaboration and communication with other Kingstown contributors is a must.

== Government ==
 
In Agawaskway, land is divided among municipalites, and organised within into '''Wards'''.
 
Agawaskway has a two-tier system of municipalities: think of them like counties and the towns within them. Local government responsibilities are split between the two. There are 2 two-tier municipalities in KGM (+3 in SWA):
 
* Paravier Region
* Waters Region
* Arlo County (SWA)
* Moore County (SWA)
* Enderby Rural Municipality (SWA)
 
There used to be another region that grouped Halkerston, Forberg, and (the late) Raster, but that was removed in a recent reorganisation. The province also has single-tier municipalities, where the town and county are merged to provide more efficient government. There are 4 in KGM (+2 in SWA):
 
* Kingstown
* Forberg
* Halkerston
* Seeburn
* Garrison (SWA)
* Flennigan (SWA)

| style="background: #FF9C9C"|Agawaskway is divided into many municipalities of different types, and you can claim one for yourself.
|}
 
=== Indigenous Treaty Lands ===
 
Certain areas of Agawaskway are set aside as treaty lands to local Indigenous peoples. Local Indigenous Councils have special rights in these areas that affect planning, zoning, and other regulations that have an impact on what the map looks like. Major industrial development should be avoided in such areas (on a case-by-case basis), instead featuring amenities like universities and casinos. In KGM and SWA, these are the current locations of Indigenous Treaty Lands (names are subject to change and will be updated here accordingly).
 
* Mitigowi of the Island (All of Ward 01, Kingstown)
* Mitigowi of the Lake (Most of Ward 51, Kingstown)
* Bain River Treaty Lands (North part of Iridium, Masterton, and the Mines) (SWA)
* Sakahi 76a (Entirety of the Township of Sakawakosie) (SWA)
* Sakahi 76b (Entirety of the Town of Sedgey-Rankner and the Town of Wenceslas) (SWA)
 
The Deodeca Council is still working on the rights and current situation of Indigenous peoples in Deodeca, so everything is still subject to change. New ideas are always welcome.
 
* '''''Note:''' Right now, I am thinking that in SWA, Local Indigenous Councils' (LIC) special planning powers mean that development in Treaty Lands can provide amenities or spaces that nearby municipalities (and the province) are not willing or able to provide, like casinos, special retail  areas, etc., should the LICs approve of their development.''
 
== Transport ==
 
Kingstown is connected internally and to other regions by a set of of land, sea, and air connections. It has a dense network of commuter railways and urban rapid transit in KTM Transport (KingsTown Metropolitan Transport), a set of highways connecting every part of the region, and many airports and seaports for further journeys. Here are some transport projects and their leads.

=== Rail ===
 
Railways are the lifeblood of transport in Agawaskway. Planned primarily by [https://opengeofiction.net/user/kengoman kengoman], they provide various types of services for the province. Here are some important agencies and who currently leads them.
 
==== KTM ====
 
'''Type:''' Railway
<br>'''Lead:''' [https://opengeofiction.net/user/kengoman kengoman]
 
KTM is a hybrid network of commuter and rapid transit railways that connect the Kingstown Region. It is inspired by Australian rapid transit systems, specifically in Melbourne. It also takes inspiration from GO Transit for its commuter services.
 
It runs 24 hours a day on some lines, and operates overnight bus services on others.
 
==== AWRail ====
 
'''Type:''' Railway
<br>'''Lead:''' [https://opengeofiction.net/user/kengoman kengoman] and [https://opengeofiction.net/user/varnel_maiser varnel_maiser]
 
AWRail is the provincial rail transport operator. It operates both passenger and freight trains, and runs coach buses for regional trips where rail does not operate. It takes inspiration from GO Transit for its coach services.
 
==== HSD/DecaRail ====
 
'''Type:''' Railway, High Speed Railway
<br>'''Lead:''' 🤷, [https://opengeofiction.net/user/kengoman kengoman]


=== Kingstown ===
DecaRail is the national railway operator for Deodeca. It runs long-distance trains, overnight trains, and the High-Speed Deodeca (HSD) network. HSD is a HSR system, where trains frequently exceed 250 and 300 km/h on stretches of the line. Its primary route goes from Liernase, AG, to Stonesipher, IA, passing through Kingstown.
Kingstown and the surrounding regions are modelled after the urban areas of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_Toronto_and_Hamilton_Area Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area]. The total metropolitan population of the city is in excess of 6.25 million people.


Being such a large metropolis, more advanced coordination of mapping efforts will be needed, to prevent conflicts, both between mappers, and on the map itself. More information on how Kingstown will be organised is coming soon. Collaboration will likely be modelled after the system in [[Collab:Gobrassanya/Gobras_City|Gobras City]], Gobrassanya.
==== KCBT ====


=== Frontenac ===
'''Type:''' Tram, Light Rail, and Bus
Frontenac is the second-largest city in the province. While it will not see the level of coordination as Kingstown, conflicts may still arise. Be wary of such conflicts, and try to work it out with the neighbouring contributors. If conflicts still cannot be resolved, you may contact the coordinator (information below).  
<br>'''Lead:''' [https://opengeofiction.net/user/Mie Mie], [https://opengeofiction.net/user/sudo91 sudo91], and [https://opengeofiction.net/user/varnel_maiser varnel_maiser]


=== Other Population Centres ===
KCBT (Kingstown City Buses and Trams) is the city's local transit operator. It runs local buses and tramways across the city of Kingstown. It also runs the KCBT 1/2/3 lines, a fully-grade-separated light metro system that runs along former Queen line tracks. It takes inspiration from the TTC in Toronto and PTV in Melbourne.  
Other cities may be mapped as per contributors' wishes, following the population listed in the Administrative divisions map.


=== Map of Subdivisions ===
It runs a network of night buses that provide a basic level of service overnight.
 
==== Other Local Transit Providers ====
 
'''Type:''' Tram, Light Rail, Monorail, and Bus

=== Highways ===
 
Kingstown is surrounded by highways of different types.
 
== Urban-Rural Dynamics ==
 
KGM will feature a unique style of urban growth (compared to its RW inspiration): while subarban sprawl in the traditional American sense exists, KGM's population centres are more concentrated and less continuous. This means that urban areas will see higher densities than Canadian and Australian cities, and will be separated by primarily agricultural or open space lands.

Latest revision as of 18:46, 7 March 2024

The Province of Agawaskway is a closed collaborative territory in eastern Deodeca. It is inspired by the Golden Horseshoe region, and surrounding areas of Ontario, Canada. It will feature an urban, Toronto-like metropolis along with other, smaller cities, and mostly rural regions beyond that. On its eastern shore lie the Federal States (specifically, the state of Minnonigan), and the Grand Lakes Amanecer and Betaouais. Lake Betaouais is similar in size and shape to Lake Ontario.

Flag of Agawaskway

Information

Agawaskway has a population of 9 497 000, the majority of whom live in the largest and capital city of Kingstown (and its extended urban area). This map shows the Kingstown Grand Metropolis, the "official" metropolitan area of Kingstown.

    Grid plan

Emb-yellow.png Advisory: This gallery will be updated on a regular basis to reflect changes to the plan.

The first map shows the administrative divisions and major population centres of Agawaskway. The province is divided into a collection of Counties and County-level Cities, somewhat following the dual-tier system in southern Ontario. While project participants will not be bound to a single county, users should not interfere with others' work, whether they be other contributors, or stateowners in the neighbouring areas of Deodeca or the Federal States. Most of the names on this map are subject to change and adjustment, to contributors' preferences.

The second map outlines the major transportation corridors of the province. With a few exceptions, there should be no additions nor subtractions to the highways on this map (railways can be added as needed). Adjustments to the routing and edits to add detail to the highways are permitted and encouraged.

The third map shows a general guideline for major grid systems in the region. Unlike regions of the Federal States, land was allocated so as to follow the coastlines of major lakes and rivers. The map is a guideline, not a rule, and conflicts between grid systems should not be a problem. Particularly in the northwest of the province, this area should serve as a model.

Climate-wise, the entire region falls under Köppen type Dfb (Warm-summer humid continental), with very small areas in the northwest being Dfa (Hot-summer humid continental).

Please do not create any new cities with a population over 100 000. Agawaskway has been completely subdivided into 31 counties and county-level cities, each with calculated population values. Statistics can be viewed on this spreadsheet.

Kingstown

Kingstown is the capital and largest city of Agawaskway. According to KGM Data, the city has an urban population of 3 002 000, with the Kingstown Grand Metropolis (KGM) having a population of 6 418 000. The region is quickly growing, with people from all over the OGF world moving and mapping there. It is one of the world's truly cosmopolitan cities.

Moving one step further, the greater region of Southwest Agawaskway (SWA) adds more distant cities to the "Kingstown" label, as well as very rural areas on the outskirts of the city. Combined, SWA has a population of 6 970 000.

The Kingstown Project is part of the closed collaborative territory Agawaskway, but is open to everyone wishing to contribute. All you have to do is message varnel_maiser with what you want to work on. It's a really straightforward process, and there's something for everyone in this project.

  • Note: "The Kingstown Project" encompasses all of SWA.

From mapping ethnic enclaves in the city, working on realistic local and regional public transportation networks, and understanding complex administrative structures that form every government, there is always a need for mappers to contribute to this project. That's right, we need you to help us build this city.

The collaboration structure of the city is very loose, with contributors focusing on one ward of the city, one major system of the city, or making sporadic and occasional edits of all sorts. Deep collaboration and communication with other Kingstown contributors is a must.

The KTM network does not render by default because I don't want to put too much load on the server 😃

Government

In Agawaskway, land is divided among municipalites, and organised within into Wards.

Agawaskway has a two-tier system of municipalities: think of them like counties and the towns within them. Local government responsibilities are split between the two. There are 2 two-tier municipalities in KGM (+3 in SWA):

  • Paravier Region
  • Waters Region
  • Arlo County (SWA)
  • Moore County (SWA)
  • Enderby Rural Municipality (SWA)

There used to be another region that grouped Halkerston, Forberg, and (the late) Raster, but that was removed in a recent reorganisation. The province also has single-tier municipalities, where the town and county are merged to provide more efficient government. There are 4 in KGM (+2 in SWA):

  • Kingstown
  • Forberg
  • Halkerston
  • Seeburn
  • Garrison (SWA)
  • Flennigan (SWA)
Noun Brain 2290453.svg What to take from this: Agawaskway is divided into many municipalities of different types, and you can claim one for yourself.

Indigenous Treaty Lands

Certain areas of Agawaskway are set aside as treaty lands to local Indigenous peoples. Local Indigenous Councils have special rights in these areas that affect planning, zoning, and other regulations that have an impact on what the map looks like. Major industrial development should be avoided in such areas (on a case-by-case basis), instead featuring amenities like universities and casinos. In KGM and SWA, these are the current locations of Indigenous Treaty Lands (names are subject to change and will be updated here accordingly).

  • Mitigowi of the Island (All of Ward 01, Kingstown)
  • Mitigowi of the Lake (Most of Ward 51, Kingstown)
  • Bain River Treaty Lands (North part of Iridium, Masterton, and the Mines) (SWA)
  • Sakahi 76a (Entirety of the Township of Sakawakosie) (SWA)
  • Sakahi 76b (Entirety of the Town of Sedgey-Rankner and the Town of Wenceslas) (SWA)

The Deodeca Council is still working on the rights and current situation of Indigenous peoples in Deodeca, so everything is still subject to change. New ideas are always welcome.

  • Note: Right now, I am thinking that in SWA, Local Indigenous Councils' (LIC) special planning powers mean that development in Treaty Lands can provide amenities or spaces that nearby municipalities (and the province) are not willing or able to provide, like casinos, special retail areas, etc., should the LICs approve of their development.

Transport

Kingstown is connected internally and to other regions by a set of of land, sea, and air connections. It has a dense network of commuter railways and urban rapid transit in KTM Transport (KingsTown Metropolitan Transport), a set of highways connecting every part of the region, and many airports and seaports for further journeys. Here are some transport projects and their leads.

Noun Brain 2290453.svg What to take from this: If you like planning transit and transport infrastructure, there are plenty of options available in Kingstown.

Rail

Railways are the lifeblood of transport in Agawaskway. Planned primarily by kengoman, they provide various types of services for the province. Here are some important agencies and who currently leads them.

KTM

Type: Railway
Lead: kengoman

KTM is a hybrid network of commuter and rapid transit railways that connect the Kingstown Region. It is inspired by Australian rapid transit systems, specifically in Melbourne. It also takes inspiration from GO Transit for its commuter services.

It runs 24 hours a day on some lines, and operates overnight bus services on others.

AWRail

Type: Railway
Lead: kengoman and varnel_maiser

AWRail is the provincial rail transport operator. It operates both passenger and freight trains, and runs coach buses for regional trips where rail does not operate. It takes inspiration from GO Transit for its coach services.

HSD/DecaRail

Type: Railway, High Speed Railway
Lead: 🤷, kengoman

DecaRail is the national railway operator for Deodeca. It runs long-distance trains, overnight trains, and the High-Speed Deodeca (HSD) network. HSD is a HSR system, where trains frequently exceed 250 and 300 km/h on stretches of the line. Its primary route goes from Liernase, AG, to Stonesipher, IA, passing through Kingstown.

KCBT

Type: Tram, Light Rail, and Bus
Lead: Mie, sudo91, and varnel_maiser

KCBT (Kingstown City Buses and Trams) is the city's local transit operator. It runs local buses and tramways across the city of Kingstown. It also runs the KCBT 1/2/3 lines, a fully-grade-separated light metro system that runs along former Queen line tracks. It takes inspiration from the TTC in Toronto and PTV in Melbourne.

It runs a network of night buses that provide a basic level of service overnight.

Other Local Transit Providers

Type: Tram, Light Rail, Monorail, and Bus
Lead: varnel_maiser

Other cities and regions operate local transit agencies that connect with each other, KCBT, KTM, and AWRail. A list of major agencies and features is provided below:

Airports

There are four major airports which have regularly-scheduled flights in SWA:

Halkerston Halkerston-Milfhouse International Airport DHL (DHLK) R map
Flennigan (Schiff) Kyle Kazowsky Airport DFL (DFLN) D map
Kingstown Albertville Airport DKA (DKAB) D map
Forberg Forberg Municipal Airport DFR (DFOR) D map

Highways

Kingstown is surrounded by highways of different types.

Urban-Rural Dynamics

KGM will feature a unique style of urban growth (compared to its RW inspiration): while subarban sprawl in the traditional American sense exists, KGM's population centres are more concentrated and less continuous. This means that urban areas will see higher densities than Canadian and Australian cities, and will be separated by primarily agricultural or open space lands.

Noun Brain 2290453.svg What to take from this: Kingstown will have a unique, somewhat experimental kind of urban fabric.

Contact and Getting Involved

If you are interested in participating in this project, please contact the coordinator, outlining the general area of the province you want to work in, as well as the inspiration you will take for that area. Regardless of your area of interest, you are mostly free to edit in other parts of the state, ensuring that there is no interference with others' mapping, or already-established mapping in the area.

Anyone with an interest in the region is welcome to join the project. Though you are not bound to any single area, you may request to focus your efforts on, and reserve a single county (or part of a county), allowing you mostly free rein within it, given certain population bounds and not deleting major highways and railways. Any counties "reserved" in this way will be noted on a list below. Other contributors should not edit within these reserved areas.
