Noun Project Map icon 1463108.svgPhysical geography
An overview of climate, topography and landscape of the country. It is advised to also create a sketch, you can add a link to this (hosted on imgur or similar)


The territory could be a flatter area of the country that is used for agriculture. Climate would remain tropical. I'll reduce the size of the current wetlands, since they seem rather big. The islands could still have a good amount of forest left on them, being less developed. They could house some mangroves.

Im not the biggest fan of the current city mapping, so im gonna do some reworking there. Maybe move the positions of the cities too.

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


It'll be according to guidelines. Poor GDP/Infrasructure, inspired by Timor. The territory would have a small fishing industry. Agriculture would be situated around the rivers, mostly on the mainland portion of the territory. The mainland chunk would have a higher population as well gdp, since the bigger cities as well as industries are located there.

Noun Project languages icon 105908 cc.svgHistory & culture
A brief description of the intended culture and language


The territory would of course be Timorese inspired. Architecture would take from Indonesia/East Timor. The cultural capital of this territory would be the bigger regional capital city. I'll do my best to come up with realistic seeming names everywhere.

The population on the smaller islands would be a bit isolated from mainland Lorotoban, they don't see a lot of developement funds and one of the poorer areas in the country. There could be cities made out of houseboats, situated on the bays of the islands.

  • Currently working on this island, AR070 ( https://opengeofiction.net/#map=13/-23.5496/166.3287&layers=B ) The cores of the settlements there were already mapped. I'm mostly detailing/expanding them right now. The NE of the island being the part where I started with the landscape already and detailed the coastline.
