Map of Mosquetania



Biggest Cities:
1 - Steinstad (pop. 215,000)
A major port in Mosquetania, Steinstad was founded in 1723. The city serves as the trade center of the Mosquetania as it's where the country's main export of Mosquinian goods take place. As a seafaring nation Mosquetania relies a lot on exporting seafood to other nations as Mosquinian fish is allegedly one of the best in the world. The port of Steinstad is where the majority of this export takes place as it is said to be one of the busiest ports in Vinorel with numerous huge companies such as Smersk and Geimskip having their main offices located here.

2 - Ungivogur (pop. 65,000)
Ungivogur serves as pitstop on the road from Steinstad to the capital Trinityfjord. It is one of the smaller major destinations in the country and is perhaps most well known due to its' location among the Strendur mountain range. Originally a mining town, Ungivogur is located at the roots of the mountain that stands in the way of passengers on the way to the capital: Fyrirvari, which is incidentally Mosquetania's highest peak (3,100m). The country's most popular ski resort is situated some 15km from Ungivogur.

3 - Austkuin Islands (pop. 180,000)
Semi-tropical islands with a big dormant (as of now) volcano (Skelfir). Very popular tourist destination.

4 - Manulaken (pop. 255,000)
Located directly between the adequately sized Yolfur (1,200m) and Rangetind (1,080m) as well as between the two beautiful lakes of Vanga Lake and Smyril Lake, Manulaken is perhaps one of the most picturesque cities in Mosquetania. Very big when it comes to fans of extreme sports such as paragliding and skydiving, the city almost doubles in size during the summer months when the average temperature is around 25°c. The city also is home to the biggest gay pride parade in the country outside of Trinityfjord.

5 - Landamot (pop. 155,000)
A border town that should technically belong to neighbouring country Nickodonia but given to Mosquetania after a civil war in the 1960s.

6 - Krossby (pop. 200,000)
A city that is somewhat central with roads leading to most major cities. The auto industry is big here as the Oudi car manifacturers have their headquarters here.

7 - Botenfjord (pop. 310,000)
A fjord not far from the capital that is by many considered a hidden gem. They have a huge arts festival in the summer where many big artists come and play with bigger names coming each and every year.

8 - Hinemogen (pop. 110,000)
9 - Herenvidth (pop. 195,000)
Cities built on opposite sides of each other. Herenvidth is on an island but there is a large famous bridge connecting the two which is a very famous landmark.

10 - Mosqivand (pop. 610,000)
The city by the lake where the country gets its name. In the summer the lake and the countryside around it are filled with a breed of Mosquitos that are very important for the environment as they serve in the same was as bumble bees. These Mosquitos don't bite humans unless aggrivated. Mosqivand is the second-biggest city in the country after the capital.

11 - Bitiby (pop. 55,000)
A town which serves mainly as a port to get to the Krimsey Islands. The Kiril Line ferry company sails between the two ports on a daily schedule.

12 - Krimsey Islands (pop. 120,000)
Not as huge with tourists as the Austkuin Islands but just as (if not more) pretty. In 2009 a cruise ship ran ashore by one of the islands and despite many attempts to salvage the wreck it still remains there to this day slowly decaying away which is actually proving to be a very big tourist attraction.

13 - Trinityfjord (pop. 1,875,000) [Mosquish: Trilekisfjord]
The capital is by far the biggest. The city is split into four main districts where the capes of each fjord meet.

13a - Efsteport
Which has the biggest residential density of the districts. Downtown Efsteport is also the business center of Mosquitania.

13b - Kerleksvik
Contains the cultural downtown of the city. Kerleksvik is also the home to one of the biggest and most fabulous gay pride parades you can find and home to the Stoltborg suburb which is one of the biggest gay suburbs in the world.

13c - Sudhvam
Also known as the old town. When Mosquetania was first discovered in the 1300s this is where the settlers decided to build town. The old city of Sudhvam has some beautiful and well preserved churches and other landmarks.

13d - Punit Island
Small compared to the other districts, Punit Islands has a big national park that surprises visitors because from a distance it looks so puny (hence its name).
