This is the map for the Coalition of Democratic Nations and, as such, only CoDN Citizens (CoDN members with World Assembly Membership) might be able to claim in here. This map is done with the purposes of Roleplaying, so do not go in and claim in here if you do not intend to do so.
Now, into the map rules. As approved by the Current Senator of Roleplay, which will be held during my tenure as Mapper:

1. A justification will always be required for a map claim to be accepted. While there's not a size limit per se, any and all claims must always be done within reason.

2. Anyone claiming must be from the CoDN and a Citzen, as I said before. Though Taralus, and other old members already in the region and without a WA may keep their claims through this map transfer.

3. Try and keep nation names passable to the area you're claiming for the RP. If you're called Sparta, you might want make your nation's Homeland somewhere else than China. (This is negotiable with the Cartographer).

4. Inactivity on Roleplay is grounds for the removal of a map claim. Though you will receive warning first.

5. The claims you make must be in the format I'm providing, and posted in this page

6. The Cartographer will reserve the right to accept or deny claims at will.

7. For the second time... You must use the format when claiming land. This is to prevent organisation issues. That is, unless you're re-claiming your Dragomerian Map Claims and just that. If you make any modifications to your Dragomerian Map claims, you have to fill out the format.

---

This application format will work much similarly to Dragomerian Island's own format, to make adaptation easier. In the little boxes, you place an "X" in the area selected. Once you're done filling out the format, just place it as a post on this thread.

BATAVIAN MAPS (HISTORY)

I claim my old land.

Map Application

Nation Name: Ephyra

Are you a CoDN Citzen? Yes

Claim Type: (place an X between the brackets, in order to determine the application type)
[_] Initial Claim
[X] Modification
[_] Relocation
[X] Reclamation (from the Dragomerian Map)

List out the lands to be claimed (If this is a reclamation from the Dragomerian Map, just say this instead of listing out the land, and I will just copy your claim over to the new map. If you also want to expand while reclaiming, say which new lands you are interested in acquiring): All lands currently held by me on the Dragomerian map. I would also like to claim Tunisia and Libya.

What is your reasoning behind claiming this land?: I would like to claim Tunisia and Libya for historical reasons of securing a southern border to protect the capital, as well as Imperial interest in acquiring a slaving colony on a very large, and at time of conquest, un-colonised continent. Adding Tunisia and Libya to my claims means I am still under the 4 million sq km limit if that is a condition you are considering. I feel claiming it makes historical sense, as Ephyra has conquered east, west, and north of the capital, but with no territory to its south. Because of this, the empire would desire to secure the Mediterranean border. On a more OOC note, claiming this land would allow me through production and prosperity to build the kind of nation I want to portray Ephyra as. Successful, but also socially traditionalist and in some cases outright regressive by modern standards.

Any other issues we can discuss via TG, but this is off of the top of my head.

I reclaim my old land plus Western China(Xinjiang Uyghur). Do I have to redo the application?

[EDIT: Jan Mayen and the Faroe Islands have been added to this claim during an agreement in the RMB]
What is your reasoning behind claiming this land?: Komminland held the land on the Dragomerian Map.

Old lands plus Xinjiang Uyghur
What is your reasoning behind claiming this land?:
The Uyghur people are historically connected to the Empire as many Uyghurs have mixed with our people. Also, the opportunity to interact with any neighboring countries can be beneficial for diplomacy and business. Our previous lands were held under Dragomerian Empire rule.

I reclaim my old lands, and I want to also add Guantanamo Bay of USA in Cuba Island to my claim.
What is your reasoning behind claiming this land?:
Because most factbooks of mine contain Cuba, Bahamas, and Jamaica in it. The presidents have Spanish/English names. My capital is Havana too.

Also, my claim is a mix of Initial Claim, Reclamation and Modification. Reclamation because, I did propose a map claim from Dragomerian Islands, though Initial Claim because my claim never made it onto the map, my claim proposal was one of the newer ones. Modification because just like i said, I want to also add Guantanamo Bay of USA in Cuba Island to my claim.

Reclamation of my old territory from the Dragomerian map, this includes the hard to see territories of Midway and Wake Islands. I would also like to claim the territory of the State of Alaska (including the Aleutian islands)
What is your reasoning behind claiming this land?:
Other than my original claims, Alaska has a very low population density in real life and would not provide a crucial population advantage. It's terrain is also very similar to much of my own and no one else is likely to claim such an odd place for a nation.

Bolivia and Paraguay

[b]What is your reasoning behind claiming this land?:

I want to reclaim these lands because I have owned these lands before, and I want to keep the lands I first claimed on the original map.

PLEASE RESPOND

I was having my African land removed, but the homie Drago didn't get around to it.

I am roleplaying a race of people inside The Land of the Ephyral, obviously.

[b]Claim Type: (place an X between the brackets, in order to determine the application type)
[_] Initial Claim
[X] Modification
[_] Relocation
[X] Reclamation (from the Dragomerian Map)
[b] The original lands I claimed plus the rest of China (not counting Tibet) Mongolia, and Vietnam (9.239 sq km, yes I realize this is too large, please read reasoning below)
[b]What is your reasoning behind claiming this land?: The expansions I feel are fair for 2 reasons. 1. Much of the land I claimed is either desert, mountian, or jungle, and as such have very low population density. Most of my population and urban development are still concentrated in the Yangtze River basin, and a few coastal areas. (I have linked the image from my original claim for reference)
The other reason is that I would like to roleplay the Vietnam region as an occupied region desiring independence similar to Palestine, or Scotland.

I'd like to reclaim my lands of the Dragomerian map + the Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg) Area.
What is your reasoning behind claiming this land?: While BENELUX is a densely populated populated area IRL, it was featured in my original lands in previous maps, plus Emeria is away for months now, plus I'd like to RP these areas as a germanic area and finally, my total area is really not big in comparison to other people's.

Before I forget:

Paglaum,

of course you do remember, but just to put it written, as of now, Vatican State, Liechtenstein and San Marino are part of Raffaellica as per the last Dragomerian map modification.
