Retroactive Change to Borders
After much consideration, I have decided to apply a retroactive change to Lower Columbia's borders that adds an estimated 16,000 square miles to the country. The following image shows where the "new" territory is located:
My reasoning for adding this territory is historically based. In my history of Lower Columbia, the eastern border of the kingdom was shifted eastwards to the Continental Divide ca. 1810. At this time in RL history, the Divide was also the western border of the USA as a result of the Louisiana Purchase. My new territory's eastern border follows the Divide from its entry into present-day Wyoming to its intersection with 42°N, the existing southern border of Lower Columbia. Previously, this part of the border was the western border of Wyoming, but that border (in RL) wasn't established until 1868. I decided that it made the most sense to follow the border that really existed at that time in history.
If any of you have issues with this change, feel free to say so, and explain what bothers you about it.

Absolutely no problems.
This made me have an idea. What if we share Google Earth files with other AIN members?

I like the sound of that. I've already saved most of my Lower Columbia and Illu'a stuff as KMZs, so I'd be happy to post them somewhere.
