Hi there Nation RPers.

I have a developed fantasy world that I've been developing in multiple RPs and 1x1s and I want to expand it into a nation. But I need help with the management of all the lore and also a map.

It's a pretty traditional Swords & Sorcery RP not quite as 'lofty' as high fantasy like LOTR but then not as gritty as a low fantasy like GoT. It's somewhere in the middle. It has 4 major countries (called provinces) and the usual collection of fantasy races.

If you're interested in helping me bring this to life and have experience with GMing and/or Mapmaking send me a message.

The Fantasy World of Terraixa

The traditional sword, sorcery and savior setting where I base all my high fantasy stories and characters.

Hi, I'm so sorry I didn't see this earlier, can we still discuss this world of mine? I'm thinking about making a map and adding more detail to the structure, history and culture of each province.

How large is the land area covered? Are we talking the size of s country (like, say, the size of France) or the size of a continent (like Westeros). That will determine the cause of the different biomes in your world. If it all exists in a temperate zone surrounded by ocean, then Rho will be an inland basin made into a desert through a rain shadow effect. But if we are talking an area the size of a continent, then we could attribute the different biomes to different latitude.

* The metropole (most populous and powerful areas) in your world are going to be the most fertile and resource rich regions that have good communication throughout, whether by the use of rivers or the use of roads. These areas are likely to have a much more stratified social structure based on class, as there will be more for the wealthy to siphon off to enrich themselves.
* More marginal areas, like Rho, are more likely to have more egalitarian societies, as they have to share between classes to survive. If they are very rugged and lack good communication, it is very unlikely that a centralized ruler will pop up (unless they are using magic or a new technology, like airships).
