Climate Key
The climate map uses the Köppen climate classification system. You can read more about it
here. Climate groups are classified using a two or three letter name, and some have common names.Every color represents a different (or a few different) climate group. Each climate name has a Wikipedia link to that climate's Wikipedia page.
A or Tropical Climates
Dark blue: Af or tropical rainforest
Blue: Am or tropical monsoon
Light blue: As/Aw or tropical savanna
B or Dry Climates
Red: BWh or hot desert
Pink: BWk or cold desert
Orange: BSh or hot steppe
Light orange: BSk or cold steppe
C or Temperate Climates
Yellow: Csa/Csb/Csc or Mediterranean
Pale green: Cwa/Cfa or humid subtropical
Bright green: Cfb/Cfc/Cwb/Cwc or oceanic
D or Continental Climates
Sky blue: Dsa/Dsb/Dwa/Dwb/Dfa/Dfb or humid continental
Dark green: Dsc/Dsd/Dwc/Dwd/Dfc/Dfd or subarctic
E or Polar Climates
Light gray: ET or tundra
Dark gray: EF or ice cap
FAQ: Why didn't you include every climate type as its own color?
This map is based off of real-life weather phenomena. Using the latitude on the side of the map, I determined wind patterns and ocean currents. Then, using that, I determined climate based off of local temperature and precipitation. This is why I won't let you change your climate without changing location, even if you ask nicely.
However, in the real world, it's much easier to make such a map, as you simply take weather measurements from around the world. This allows you to define many more climate types that have much smaller variation. I simply cannot determine enough variables to figure out how every single type would be placed, so I just picked the major ones and lumped the smaller ones in.
This is how you get on

Fill out the form below and send it in a telegram to Octopus islands.
The first four questions are mandatory. The rest are optional.
You must have over 50 SPDR (influence) to be on the map. Check the climate map to make sure that the location you are in is of a climate you like, as I will not be changing the climates on the climate map.
The Form
Nation name:
Whether you want to be on the old world map or the new world map:
Size, shape, and location of your nation on the map:
Location of capital city:
Any major cities and the location of them:
Significant geographical features (volcanoes, tall mountains, shorter mountains, rivers, lakes, and where they are located):

FAQ
Can I get onto the map?
Forest's map is on an opt in basis. Any nation who wants to be on the regional map must have a regional Influence rating of 50 SPDR or higher. You can check your regional influence here. Influence is a measure of a combination of World Assembly endorsements and length of time spent in a region. Nations below 50 SPDR must wait until they reach that level before applying.
How big can my nation be?
I'm willing to work it out with you, so the following numbers are not a strict rule, but a general guideline. Your nation should generally be (x) long if your influence is (y):
- 750 km for 50-100 influence
- 1,000 km for 100-1000 influence
- 1,500 km for 1000-2000 influence
- 1,750 km for 2,000+ influence
No nation should be larger than Ransium or Errinundera.
Can you change X in the coastline / make me on a new island?
Of course! As long as there is room, I am happy to do so.
What program do you make the map with?
Inkscape.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I reserve the right to refuse or change any request you make, but it is very unlikely I will need to do so.
If you leave Forest or CTE for longer than 6 months, I will remove you from the map. If you come back afterwards, please tell me if you wish to return to the map. You will still have to meet the other requirements (50 SPDR).
