Description[?]:
| I have come up with the idea of developing a little more the info about each island. I've been doing it with Oleria so far (https://particracy.fandom.com/wiki/Oleria), including the regional elections (https://particracy.fandom.com/wiki/4847_Olerian_elections) but I think it would be nice to think about the other two and see what can we write about each one of them |

| Message | Great idea! I was thinking that we should first get an idea about the climate. Since Selucia is on the Equator and is formed of several islands I think we should base the climate on that of Indonesia. I was also thinking of giving each of the islands a distinct culture. For Sadaria I want to use Roman Africa as the main influence, since it is close to formerly Carthaginian Cildania, but also Punic Iberia and a bit of modern Catalan influence (I based the expansion of Argona on Barcelona's Eixample district). Since Aquilonia is close to Artania, it might make sense to give it a Gallo-Roman touch - maybe we could even introduce Gauls in a future CP update. And Oleria, being closest to the Majatran mainland, might have a more Eastern Roman influence - maybe with more Jelbics as well. |

| Message | Yeah, I thought the climate for Selucia should be a tropical one, due to its location. Also as they are islands, a much more regulated climate than continental climate, while at the same time not being totally a "proper" island (not with volcanic origin, at least from what I have read). For Oleria, I've been using a mix of Greece, the region of Valencia and Turkey, so it seems fine to me. I agree with the cultures of the other two islands. We can also apply some concept from the climate of the Canary Islands, in the sense that a part of the nation is facing a "closed" portion of land while the other part is facing open sea, therefore developing differences in the climate in both sides of the nation |

| Message | I think it would make sense to make the islands volcanic though, they don't seem to match any surrounding land. I agree with using the Canary Islands for inspiration for the climate. I also think we should agree on the population of the islands. Officially, Selucia's population is 80,978,134 (http://forum.particracy.net/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=8908), a bit smaller than the one in the system. Do you think we should keep the current proportions for the islands, i.e. about 1/5 for Oleria and 2/5 for each of the other islands? Or do we give them roughly equal population? |

| Message | I thought the whole continent of Majatra was united at first, and then the islands became separated with constant infloods of water through the land, but it could also have a volcanic origin, I'm not opposed to it. Depending on the origin, the climate and flora may vary a little. About the population, I think giving each of the island 1/3 of the population seems fairer, rather than dividing it into the regions |

| Message | Cool, I updated the population of the regions. This got me thinking: since the population of the islands is different than the one in the system, then the number of votes is different too. In this case it doesn't really make much sense to add up the total number of votes for each party for the Praetor elections. Why don't we just use the system-generated map to determine who gets the Praetors? So for Aquilonia and Sadaria the party that wins each of the two halves get the respective Praetor, and for Oleria the largest party gets both Praetors if it wins a majority, and if not one Praetor goes for the largest party and the other to the second largest party. I can work on an amendment to the RP law if you agree. |

| Message | Yeah I agree with you on that, it is much easier and it prevents us from having to keep correcting results every time, so I'll support it. Well seen |

| Random fact: Players who consent to a particular role-play by acknowledging it in their own role-play cannot then disown it or withdraw their consent from it. For example, if player A role-plays the assassination of player B's character, and player B then acknowledges the assassination in a news post, but then backtracks and insists the assassination did not happen, then he will be required under the rules to accept the validity of the assassination role-play. |
