Sioux State is like Maine. Cumbria is a bit like eastern Ohio. Sligo is mountainous. Roscommon borders Lake Campbell, part of the Creedonian great lakes. Sky is hilly, but there is good farmland.

Belle Isle Bay. The Creedonian States that border the bay are:

Peter
Annapolis
Hampshire
Sioux

These are the districts of the Republic of New Brunswick that border the bay:

Belle Isles
Charlotte
Saint John
Albert

These are the Provinces of Newfoundland that border the bay

North
Port Aux Port
Port Aux Basques

The bay is also crossed by three major ferry routes:

1.) Portland-Stephenville
2.) Bar Harbor-Stephenville
3.) St. Barbe-Saint John

There are also very large tidal fluctuations in the bay.

Is the reason that the states of Creedonia are mostly named after U.S. and U.K. regions to do with Creedonia being influenced by said countries?

The Creedon republic was settled by people from Ireland, Wales, England, and Scotland. New Connecticut came in 1859 as did Rhode Island. Rhode Island kept a small piece of Peter State's Bristol County, which consists of

-Barrington
-Bristol
-Warren

After RI became a state, Newport County was formed. It consists of:

-Newport
-Tiverton
-Portsmouth
-Middletown
-Little Compton
-Jamestown

What is the culture like in Creedonia? Is it mostly reflected off of British culture?

Yes, it's mostly reflected off of British culture; but don't tell a Creedonian that. Creedonians and the Brits don't really get along well. For example, Creedonians have tea every day from 3-5 PM

Here is a sign of good luck in a coastal town:

In Peter, Annapolis, Hampshire, and Sioux States; a dory with a lit Christmas tree is a sign that the luck of the town will turn for the better. Perhaps the most famous example of this is in Nantucket, where every year the Killen family puts a Christmas tree, complete with lights in their dinghy just off the bulkhead on Easy Street.

In Boothbay, there are two dinghies with trees, one lit the other, unlit.

How do you go about naming all these counties and towns? Do you read up on British history and give your nations towns specific qualities w/ the specific naming?

I get most of my town names from New England. County names are a mixture of British and American names. States on the other hand, are named after Irish,Welsh, Scottish, and English counties.

I like the corsets that the girls and women wear. How old are the girls when they start wearing them?
