Getting Started:
Grey-lands without established claims are open to be applied for. Each continent and region of the continents has a different culture, so it is best to check in either in this thread or in our Discord if you have any questions. The Help Sheet, which is linked above, is especially helpful for sorting out what culture is where in these unclaimed regions of the map. In addition to applying for unclaimed territories, nations colored in dark-grey on the map are NPCs that can be applied for. If you have any questions about them, please ask in this thread or the Discord. Additional information for the NPCs can generally be found on iiwiki as well.
Application:
As with most regions, Kylaris, while open to new members, does have an application for you to fill out if you wish to join. The application template is below this paragraph, and it is recommended that you try your best to fill out each section to the level that you are capable of. Some aspects of nation-building and nation-roleplaying, such as armed forces, are not present in the application, as for the most part these details will be discussed and worked on later with input from the regional government and the other members of the region. There are two applications: one for the average state and one for players who want to roleplay a great or secondary power. The latter will be required to fill out more information so we can get a feel for how this new major geopolitical player would fit into the canon.
Application for Major Powers:
