Greater Olympus Regional Map

Olympus World Map

| Political Map | Equal Area Map |

The Political Map is updated as needed.
Red lines cannot be crossed in claims.
Purple reserved islands
Equal Area Map ≈134.06 Km2/pixel


How to get Started:

    To begin the process of citizenship in the region placement on the map is a necessity. There is a lot of information to unpack so here is a quick guide for those seeking a nice outline.

    Okay, wow, hold up there are way too many maps here, what’s the deal?

    Greater Olympus is committed to realistic Role-Plays and resource limitations are a part of this. For nations with a very specific idea of what they wish to look like have access to quite a bit of information provided to build their ideal setup. For some however, just picking an aesthetically pleasing spot on the map is the way to go.

    That sounds better, but I mean I still want to be able to contribute don’t I need that information?

    Yes, you do, when approved we will give you a run-down of what you chose giving you some possible ideas about what your land looks like. So don’t worry if you don’t want to bother with researching heavily you are just fine (Although we encourage all members to look at output and climate maps).

    Got it, so how should I start?

    First, grab the political map and take it to an editing program like GIMP, Photoshop, MS Paint ETC. Next, select up to 25 provinces on the map, and mark the location of your capital. It is encouraged that you locate yourself near other nations. After that re-upload the image onto an image hosting site. Post it on the form with your display name, capital name, and preferred color in hex color code (We reserve the right to veto color choice).

    Wait but, [Totally Unoriginal Country Name Here] took the spot I wanted, I want it!

    Well, find a spot nearby or wait for them to CTE, which depending on the person might be a while. Sorry first come first serve.

    Wait but, [Totally Unoriginal Country Name Here], has the word (NPC) after its name.

    Oh my mistake sorry. That is open land, it just was previously occupied by a nation that CTE'd If their info is still located in the Citizen Registry I might suggest building off of it. Or just scrap it and take the land no judgment from me.

    So I want to put provinces across the world that cool?

    Unfortunately no, we have rules against blobbing, a cohesive claim is needed. There are some exceptions such as working with another player to establish exclaves or colonial nations

    Colonial Possesions you say??

    Yeah so we have a whole new world on the west side of the map. If you are looking for modern day colonial hold overs you can't claim those here, talk with nations in the new world to create colonial hold overs.

    Cool so My nation, [Super Original Country Name Here], has applied what now?

    It’ll go for approval to make sure you haven’t made some dangerous mistakes or made a completely unusable claim. Most, however, should be accepted as is, if not, some small tweaks and a resubmission should solve everything. Attach information to citizen application and you should be good to go.

    This probably a shameless plug thrown in by the creator but this looks well hand drawn, how long did this take? Do you have a life anymore?

    Yes, this is in fact, a shameless plug. Short answer a VERY, VERY, long time, longer than I’d like to admit. I’d like to say that I’m riding the thin line of complete social collapse and dark isolation but the truth is no, no, I don’t, please send help.


    Too much Narrative not enough facts?
    1. Open Political Map on Editing Software (E.g. GIMP)
    2. Claim up to 25 Cohesive Provinces and Mark Location of Capital
    3. If a country has "(NPC)" After its name, it's open land though some restrictions may apply.
    4. Upload to Image Site
    5. Fill out information in form below
    6. Submit

      Code: Select all
      [b]Owner[/b]: (For puppet nations register under main nation's name)
      [b]Display Name[/b]: (If full name is quite long please abbreviate or shorten name)

    Rules Concerning Secondary Nations

    Secondary Nations are allowed in the region, with no set maximum, although we reserve the right to deny creating a new nation (usually on the grounds that you haven't really been using your other nation). The goal of a secondary is to allow you have different experiences in G.O. and increase the likelihood of interacting with other nations and players you might not otherwise have a chance to RP with. What secondary nations are not for is meta-gaming and as such interactions between your main nation and your secondary should be limited.

      1. Declare your secondary nations
      2. Do not place secondaries near your main nation
      3. Do not have a similar break down of Output
      4. Avoid similar climates
      5. Avoid setting up nations next to players you already border

World Maps


    Map of the world's climates. Mostly used within the context of others maps it is a nice visual to give you an idea of the climate in your country. Takes a bit of research for those who are not informed but Wikipedia will have enough information to be useful.


    The output map tells you what kind of economic output is found in each province and is divided into 9 outputs. Focused outputs primarily produce a single sector, oriented outputs produce a mixture with a larger chunk coming from the secondary sector. Economy type, resources, and specialization are all based on this map. If you only look at one of these maps this is the one.


    The Base Topography Map gives a quick look at prominent Mountain Ranges and Rivers. More in depth information has been left to the indvidual nations discression.

The necessity of a navy, in the restricted sense of the word, springs, therefore, from the existence of a peaceful shipping, and disappears with it, except in the case of a nation which has aggressive tendencies, and keeps up a navy merely as a branch of the military establishment. 1

Please avoid conflating my in-character role playing with what I actually believe, as these are usually quite different things.
