[Bears Armed]

What is the "Wilderlands Protectorate" is that a nation?

It's a part of the lands assigned to Bears Armed, when this nation originally applied for a place on the map, but is RPed as not [yet] fully integrated politically into Bears Armed proper. I have RP in the NS Sports forum from the NS World Cup threads, set around 2050 AD or so (i.e. around eight World Cup cycles into the future, in OOC terms and also IC for most of my non-'NS Sports' RP), in which parts of it do get absorbed.

(Incidentally, the slice of land between its eastern edge & Laeral that is currently shown as vacant -- but was formerly labelled something like 'Unknown Lands' -- was also a part of those originally-assigned lands although it was left outside of BA for my RP.)

However, as I am moving my nations (apart from a few relatively small "gateway" areas through which to continue IC links with the rest of you...) off of the region's main map shortly rather than deal with the logical climate changes due to the recent expansion of these continents' sizes, to leave them on a version that remains the old size instead, that doesn't really matter any more.
