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 development
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.
Looks at the Development and Trade Power of each province. Province's with higher development hold larger populations and are more likely to be economically based on service rather than industry. Most highly developed provinces are much smaller than their less developed counterparts. Lower Development means fewer people and weaker trade power, but usually an increase in raw materials and industry. 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.
Resource Maps
Map of Major Ore and Mineral Deposits. Although some amounts of many resources are available in most provinces commercially viable deposits have been limited to this list.
