This nation is actually in about the same location as "Skeckoa". That's fun.

Is it? Because when I look up Aurentina on Google it only comes up with stuff about our Aurentina.

It's not very common, but it's a name. http://www.locatemyname.com/name/Aurentina
I started NS on Nov 6, 2011. I accidentally let my original nation die.

If we are aiming for a country on both a group of islands and the "mainland" we will have to take a significant/important part of an existing nation, which other people seem opposed to. Unless y'all are open to attaching a peninsula to somewhere. I assumed the location wouldn't be an issue since others have suggested one/parts of the independent/Venezuelan Guianas.
Hey, it is Parhe :D I am always open to telegrams.
I know it is a Work-In-Progress, but I would love it if y'all looked at my new factbook and gave me some feedback!

Make sure to make your case in the voting thread, then. We've got a couple days of debate before we vote on whether or not it'll take place in the Caribbean Sea.

That'll work too, but it probably wouldn't be of any significant size.

He did, but my understanding is that, since Argentina is rooted in argentum — silver — Aurentina was rooted in aurum — gold.
