Territory application

Hope this message finds you well;

I have been mapping for two or three months now and, while still nowhere near finished my first city (due primarily to attention to detail and, admittedly, perfectionism), I do believe I have demonstrated my skill/ability as well as daily commitment to my corner of this grand project. As such, I write you today to humbly request a sovereign territory in the "new world", as it were—ie. the currently-under-development and as yet unassigned (I assume) hemisphere.

Specifically, I have my eye on ER074, as I am taking inspiration primarily from the Levant region (Transjordan/Palestine/Lebanon), whose coastline resembles that of ER074. In fact, being so ideal geography-wise, I would but add a Galilee-like lake and Dead Sea-like endorheic basin, as well as a Jordan-like river to connect the two. I will not be copying exact geographic contours/other details, nor using real-world names for said details. I will label in Arabic, in which I am fluent.

Alternatively, KA025 would also more than suffice.

Finally, to bolster my credibility, I’d simply like to add that I have been passionate about conworlding since childhood and have long sought a platform like this one, which I only discovered by chance shortly after being introduced to OSM. I thus envision a long-term commitment to my share of OpenGeofiction.

Thank you for your consideration.

PS—If territories in this hemisphere are not scheduled to be assigned anytime in the near future, by chance would any de facto abandoned territories in the old hemisphere be available for adoption?
