Does it ever snow in your nation?
Novaya is a land with a climate similar to the Baltic coast of Sweden, thus, it snows every single winter.

If so, how often?
As mentioned above, every single winter, from mid-October to early April.

Where?
All over the place, from the mountains to sea level.

Do your people like snow? Is it considered a novelty? Or do they hate it?
Because of the prevalence of it, it depends on the person. Some people see it as a nuisance, and want to get rid of it all. The cities of Holoska usually do all they can to keep the roads and streets clear. Others see it as something to be enjoyed, a cheap form of recreation. They build snowanthros, have snowball fights, go sledding, make snow forts, and all the usual winter fun stuff. They usually have to go outside of the city for it, though.

Have most of your people seen snow?
Every single person has seen snow, within the first year of their life. It is a fact of life in Holoska.

Does it ever snow in your nation?
Yes.

If so, how often?
It never snows on the coastal areas, however the frequency of snow increases as you go inland, and it snows year-round in some parts of Northern Mironor.

Where?
See above.

Do your people like snow? Is it considered a novelty? Or do they hate it?
It varies.

Have most of your people seen snow?
Yes, as news reports of massive blizzards in Northern Mironor are broadcast nationwide, even in July and August :p
In person? It depends on whether they live inland or on the coastal areas.

Does it ever snow in your nation?
Yes, a lot.

If so, how often?
Very often, almost all the time.

Where?
Mainly in the mountain tops of the northern regions of Portugal, the Açores archipelago's peaks and in the tallest mountain of Portugal, Amoras Peak

Do your people like snow? Is it considered a novelty? Or do they hate it?
Yes. Our people are more used to sun, fog, rain and hail, therefore snow is like a novelty and some of people spend their winter and even summer vacations in places where there's snow.

Have most of your people seen snow?
No person in our nation has ever lived without seeing at least a little bit of snow in its entire lifetime.

Does it ever snow in your nation?: No it never snows in AHSCA due to us being entirely tropical and having no terrain that extends high enough in elevation to see any kind of snow.
Do your people like snow? Is it considered a novelty? Or do they hate it?: Snow would be a real novelty to an islander if they ever managed to venture out of the nation to a place where snow does occur. Some are likely to hate how wet and cold it is compared to ordinary rain.
Have most of your people seen snow?: Not many have seen snow in person but a fair amount have seen it in picture books.

Snow is generally pretty uncommon across the majority of Winzig, only falling in quantities worth mentioning in the highlands of Winzig. Although that being said, since 2000, there's been several sudden cold snaps that have blanketed the island in an uncomfortable amount of snow.
For most Winzigins, snow is considered an irritant, upsetting schedules and stopping traffic. It's an almost unheard of thing for a Winzigin not to know what snow is, since it sometimes decides to come to them!

Where? Across the entire nation.
Do your people like snow? Is it considered a novelty? Or do they hate it? There's just so much everyone is pretty much expectant of it at this point. Tourists be aware.
Have most of your people seen snow? Yes, unless they've never left their house. And then some.

Yes it does strangely enough, even in the Grand Senora Desert!

Where?
All over San Andreas, literally every single nook and cranny.

Well, once the snow hits the roads you can't drive faster than 8 miles per hour without skidding out, and the fog is a bitch so ... we hate it!

Unless they are blind, I would be inclined to say yes.

Does it ever snow in your nation? The winters in the home continent are often very cold and very harsh, certain parts of the extreme north is well within the polar circle and is covered in ice the whole year. Mainland Scandera can ever experience so called summer snows, even if this is mostly during very cold nights and the snow generally melt when the sun rises again.

Though in the colonies are the climate typically warmer and some of them do not experience snow at all.
If so, how often?
Theoretically do the federation experience snow the entire year around but the home continent generally only suffers snow 3-5 months depending on where you are with the extreme south only having to worry about snow during the winter while it can take place in late autumn and early spring in the far north as well.
Where?
The highlands of tropical realms are well versed with snow as is the more northern realms and Scandera proper.

Do your people like snow? Is it considered a novelty? Or do they hate it?
Depends, most Imerians cheerfully accept colder climate as a fact of life and Scanderan born federal subjects generally do not care too much for hot climate, colonial born people though might live their entire lives without seeing snow and they just as the natives tends to prefer warmer climates.

Have most of your people seen snow? (In person)
Most have, however there are a lot of people that have not.

Does it ever snow in your nation? In some areas, Northestar and Malico City receive most snow, while Scartelben and the Blackacres have never had snow

If so, how often? 2 months a year in Northestar, and all year in Malico City, as Malico City is on and around Mount Korleon

Where? Northestar and Malico City

Do your people like snow? Is it considered a novelty? Or do they hate it? Most view snow as a holy gift from the Eternal Leader and Future Martyr Alex Malico (blessed be his name), as it started snowing as he slayed the evil walrus demon Krackenhau, according to the Church of Walrudism

Have most of your people seen snow? Yes, as many citizens will travel to Malico City to catch a glimpse of the ELaFMAM

There is heavy snow in North and Grand Harthyon provinces. In those regions, the average snowfall is 9 feet a year. Some provinces, especially Omayeme, Thiefland, and Serenbahalaw never see snow. In the other provinces, it snows occasionally, but not very much.

Ozgaard is situated in the Bering Sea between Alaska and Kamchatka, so extreme winter conditions are the norm on the outdoors of the island (snow is prevented from collecting on the glass domes of the 3 Spheres by enormous wiper blades). Due to the high radioactivity of the island, the snow becomes irradiated and is considered an extreme health hazard. The building of snowmen is expressly banned due to their proclivity for coming to life and seeking human victims...

Considering that we do not have any major landmasses in an area that are cold and wet enough for snowfall, most Jamillans have never personally experienced snow. We do own some minor snowy islands to the south of our mainlands, but they have few, if any, permanent residents. Human citizens and visitors often hold a majority in these tiny islands since they handle that sort of climate better. Even then, over 95% of the population lives in a region where it seldom or never snows.
