This is a list of countries I am NOT currently mapping in OGF, but would be mapping if I had more time and could be a greedy monster who could just grab territory whenever I wanted to.

I am making this page because even if I am not mapping countries, I'd like to use the wiki to "take notes" and develop ideas for these countries. It seems more organized than just having the ideas sitting in piles of scraps of paper in my home.

  • Gohanguk/고한국/古韓國 - this is a Korea-analogue. Unlike "real" Korea, I imagine a country that never underwent colonization (cf "real" Korea which was colonized by Japan 1905-1945), but transitioned more-or-less in isolation from medieval Choson Korea to modern North Korea.
  • Bofobundah/بفبوندة - the sultanate of Bofobundah has its own language (Bofobundan language, for convenience written using a modified Farsi script) and culture, vaguely Indonesianish, and a large, chaotic capital city called Zhebeyem ژبيم, with some colonial overlays from a Portuguese speaking culture, which includes an ex-colonial city called Porto das Saudades (پرتوداسّاودادس).
  • Rasf-sayan - an island country, about the size of Puerto Rico but with a distinctive culture resembling Aztecs-in-Haiti. The language is one of my older creations... but I don't have my notes on it, I would have to re-create a lot of it.
  • Senhar - another island country, based on Sri Lanka (and roughly the same area). Intended to be the "holy land" for my imaginary analogue to Buddhism, called Gautamism. It has several lanaguages, including Sirelangan (based on Sinhala, the national language of Sri Lanka), Dibusian (my own conlang, written using Tibetan script, however), and Sinian (based on some Chinese-based language). It is imagined as a relatively poor country with a complex history and multiple sovereign states.
