Collab:Florescenta
Desambiguatiuon note:
This is the detailed article about collaboration in Florescenta.
If you look for "definitive" info about the country, please visit
Florescenta article
Basic Information
Florescenta∈⊾ is basically the motherland to portuguese/ florescentian language. Also, important to historic timeline to countries where this language is spoken, like 
Brasonia, 
Luslandia, 
Tempeira, 
Cariocas and countries that mention Florescenta in their history, like 
Inxigne and 
Sangria Islands.
It is part of the base-territories and cultures in OGF, so there will be no major influence of other cultures in the current territory.
Portuguese/ Florescentian is the only official language. However, users that are interested and are not proficient in the language are still welcomed to join.
Total population should not be more than 8 million people.
We are looking for users to detail Florescenta:
- Currently, only freguesias and concelhos in Alabraste and Alta Serra do Pálido are open to request for now.
- Micromaping is very welcome in this project. This is another reason to focus, for now, in small places.
- To be fluent in portuguese is not mandatory to any user wishing to join the project, but of course, is mandatory in the map.
If interested, please contact coordinators BMSOUZA or Davieerr.
Development Stages
Basically, intention is to keep most of current mapping, in respect to Andy, the creator of the country, but detailing it as much as possible. Obviously, there will be some changes but nothing radical.
The general layout by Andy will be maintained (city locations, major roads, part of the geography, etc), however, seeing the lack of detailing in most areas, many places will have internal layout changes. We will open the proposal of re-planning the capital, following the standard in other collaborative territories. Here follows the general inital stages of planning:

Planning/Infrastructure
History
Historical coherence will be generally coordinated by Davieerr, with the help of BMSOUZA, as I like to plan history from a old start point, here follows the general layout of the history of Florescenta, however, we will not be discussing deeply the historical facts of older parts of Florescentan History:
- Pre-Ulethan Clay and Hunter-Gatherer Cultures
- Ulethan Cultures and First Settlements (Favos? Culture)
- Talta? (Shared Culture with Castellán of Tin/Bronze?)
- Small settlements dominated by Romantish Influence, new romantish towns
- Fracturing of multiple kingdoms
- Imani Dominion
- Christic Reconquista
- Largest Florescenta Dominion
- Colonization Period
- Sucession Crisis creates a situation similar to Iberic Union, Florescenta shrinks its borders
- Modern-ish Florescentan History
I think it is important to consider how much imani influence would be maintained on Florescenta, I believe there could be a more accepting culture towards the Imani religion, seeing how in this case, there is a shared land border.
General Infrastucture
Partly, rails and highways have been decided by the old layout, but as we keep filling the map, we will use the method of taking in consideration existing mapping to decide new routes of highways and rails if needed. It's important to emphasize that Florescenta is about half the size of Portugal, so we will not be having a denser road-network that Portugal.
Industrial areas, mining, ports and other will be alocated to places as seen fit, with no major economical mapping (mining activity, industrial parks, ports, refiniries) to be mapped without coordinator consent.
Major cities will have been decided by coordinators and will be of communal mapping, any city (Concelho) mapped by a single collaborator will be medium-small size with limited influence over the nation.
Diplomatic Relations
NOTES: All embassies will be located in the national capital. As Florescenta is not a big country about area, there will be not any need to create consulates in other cities.
Another important thing to mention, will be needed to talk about relations (historical? commercial?) before creating embassies in-or-to Florescenta

Adminstrative Divisions
Florescenta, on the highest level, is divided in 15 distritos/ districts, which are subdivided into 83 (still counting) concelhos/ municipalities, which are subdivided into freguesias/ civil parishes.
Collaborators, under permission, are able to choose a conselho to edit, or even a freguesia in collaborative areas. District capitals usually will be collaborative.
As seen in the table below, usually there is a maximum population to each concelho. It is necessary to prevent "new very important cities". If you are editing a concelho and think that the population should be bigger, please, talk to a coordinator,
Currently, only freguesias and concelhos in Alabraste and Alta Serra Almada are open to request.
Piumeste is closed to contributors. Only coordinators are allowed editing in this district.

How to tag a place in Florescenta?
As seen in the topic before, there are a lot of populated places in Florescenta. But, to get a coherent map, with not so much names displaying on the map, coordinators have decided how to tag the places in Florescenta by population, no matter if it is a concelho seat or a freguesia.
| Place (tag) | Notes |
|---|---|
| City | Capital city of a district, or places with a population =/> 50.000 |
| Town | Places with population between 10.000 and 49.999 |
| Village | Places with population between 1.000 and 9.999 |
| Hamlet | Places with population =/< 999. |
Highways
The Sistema Rodoviário de Florescenta (SRF) is divided in three types of roads.
Rodovias Nacionais, tagged as highway=motorway and ref=N*, are national highways, usually (but not only) going from the capital area to further areas of the country, passing close to the main cities. Currently, there are around 980km of dual carriage and asphalt roads in this network.
There are a controlled number of exits in these highways, please do not add more exits without consulting coordinators. It is necessary to avoid excessive exits, to small places.
There are 19 rest areas, with parking, fuel, fast food, toilets and ATM, along the national highways.
Another important rule here: Do not create urban areas so close to this type of road.
There is already a masterplan to all the national highways, one more reason to not edit without coordinators permission.
Rodovias Distritais, tagged as highway=primary and ref=D*, are main highways inside districts. Contributors are allowed to adjust a district road and/or create an exit inside a concelho where is editing, without asking coordination, but not to create a new one. If wishing to create a road access to a concelho to the main road, please create a Estrada Complementar, as the description below.
Estradas Complementares, tagged as highway=secondary and ref=C*, are, as said, complementar highways to national system, usually (but not only) between important cities and towns. These ones can be created by contributors. Currently, there are around 912km (partial) of dual carriage and asphalt roads in this network.
Numbering in the ref tag is following a pattern to all districts. The lower the number, closer the district is to the capital area. To know what number use in a secondary road tag, please check the primary roads in the district, or the district information in Administratice Divisions table.
These type of roads doesnt need to be listed in the wiki or in a relation.
There are two exceptions:
D-1 Arco Rodoviário da Capital is listed as distrital road, but actually with national highway status, so, do not edit it without coordinator permission.
N-2B Variante do Sul is listed as national highway, but actually with distrital road status, so, feel free to edit it if necessary.

Railways
There is a 650km of rails network operated by EFF - Estradas de Ferro de Florescenta.
There is a 84km of subway and trams network in the capital operated by CCC - Companhia de Comboios da Capital, and maybe, also in Casamiranda. Coordinators will decide it later.

Airports
There are two international airports in Florescenta.
The main one, Aeroporto Dom Alberto, is located in Salácia's concelho, west end of Capital metropolitan area, being the major international hub to the country.
The second one, still with no name, will be located in northern Florescenta, and will be the secondary international hub, with flights to neighbour countries and not so far ones.
Ports
Natural Mapping
Following the TopoMap presented for Castellán, we will follow its topography, however, watersheds will be discussed with the coordinator of Castellán, major river (which will be pointed on the map) cannot be altered and there is a limitation on how many rivers can be put in place.
Urban and Rural Mapping
As said, Florescenta is like an OGF-Portugal, so, mapping inspiration needs to be from Portugal. (TBD)
Basic ideas are listed here:
- No matter if is a big, medium or small place: urban areas must be away as much as possible to the national highways.
- Of course, can be some exceptions in some metropolitan areas, but, as these places are still not open to edit, will be decided later by coordination.
- Florescentians are a religious people. Some churchs are welcome if mapped.
- Other religions also can get a community in bigger places.
- Imame mosques are welcome to be mapped specially in places closer to Mazan border, keep it in mind.
- Florescentians like sports very much.
- Football grounds and stadiums, community sports parks (Campo de Jogos) are welcome if mapped.
- Florescentian also like rugby very much!
- As most of places in Florescenta are not so populous, try to detail it as much as possible.
- If not wishing to map every single building, at least set local commerce where you are mapping. Pharmacy? Clothes store? Butcher? Go ahead!
- Also, public places, like schools, police departments, etc...
(TBD)
