About This File
its yet another special edition of ecape maps, this time featuring harbours.
Backstory: welcome to the 55th and five thirds century and escapes population is booming, wev'e had many hardships and troubles along the way but we are now at the point where we need a larger economy to rival that of earth, which is why with the epic demand for land we are making more cities and suburbs and we need people to found them and plan them out, if you are interested please download the attached file.
Map info: to get a strong economy we need strong trade, to get this we need several major harbours.
Kimberly sound: our first selection today is a good one with many fine beaches and deep water good for seaports and docks, also it will appeal to higher class residents as it has many scenic hills with gentle slopes and again fine beaches. the region has three rivers empty into the harbour, one of which has the largest amount of different birdlife in the continent. this region is in the territory of the ANZAF ( Australia, New zealand and Antarctic Federation) Summary:Largely flat with a winding harbour and gently sloping hills scattered throughout. mostly deep water.
Gate Harbour: this area is just 50ks from the coral river and as a result is mostly reef that can easily be formed into harbours. the river you see here is also infested by coral and is very slow flowing. the area used to be a major military base holding over 1000-thousand staff but since the new strand of coral started eating the coast its military use became null. this area is in the territory of the USA.Summary: very flat with two mountains at either end of the region and a set of seacliffs, also a reef filled(not completely but nearly) harbour is present.
Port Bowl: just at the foot of the wilhelm mountains this region has a very deep water harbour in the shape of a bowl, the area is perfect for a major trading centre because of the bowl alone, yet the recently completed will-tunnels in the north (not on map) give it endless opportunity to trade with the major cities on the other side. that aside the area also has a climate similar to that of london and flood gates may need to be built, other than that perfect in every way possible. this area is in the boundaries of Kenya. Summary: quite flat with a few slightly hilly areas and one very wide mountain, also it has a bowl shaped harbour.
