A brief description of the territory demographics, economic development, land occupation, infrastructure and mapping style


The two biggest cities will be the ones mentioned earlier. The larger of the two, the capital, will be on the lake. The other is on the northern border. A few more major, but smaller cities exist throughout which will be connected by motorway and railway. Along these routes will also be small and quaint rural towns, villages and hamlets.

In the alpine regions will be ski villages and resorts which will be accessible by road and sometimes rail depending on the surrounding terrain. These are sort of Scandinavian-inspired.

The mapping style will loosely resemble British and Australian, with aspects of other European countries. Driving side is on the left.

A brief description of the intended culture and language


The main spoken language will be English (Ingerish)

There exists a long history in the rural towns, they have small, old heritage buildings and historic sites.

Whereas the cities were established more recently and are thus more modern.
