	Naming suggestions for province 3 Inflate your Upload Space

I'm currently looking for names for province #3.This province's geography consists of mainly jungle and mountains and also the country's only supply of iron (SO IT IS IMPORTANT). I t is the countrys east most province(so far) and it needs a name.

The following towns currently make up the province:

Seeberg
Napolyton
geofront
Ubergorsk
Loveshack

and munich is to eventually join ( assuming cultural revolt)
also I am now going to move to Ubergorsk away from Gaia.

here is a rough map of the province:

IMORTANT NOTE:suggestion s for the provence are no longer being accepted - El Nido is now thew name of choice.

Sub Montibus-- Latin for "under the mountains" or "below the mountains"

Paludes Montes-- "Swamp Mountains", again, in Latin

Valhalla (IIRC, that's what we're calling the mountains there)

Mines of Valhalla
Ironland
Dale (The Hobbit, name of the kingdom under the mountain)

Building on Civman and jdd's suggestions:

-- Dimrill Dale (IIRC, it's in Lord of the Rings...)
-- Marbule (Chrono Cross reference)
-- El Nido (blatant Chrono Cross reference)

of all LotR names, Lothlorien and Mordor sound the *coolest*

yeah but Dale is actually known as the kingdom under the mountain, which is a good description of the region (except maybe more of a duchy or something rather than a kingdom)

I think that Dale Province would be a good name, or perhaps Valhalla Province. Or perhaps "the Far East Province."

I don't think Dale was the kingdom under the mountain; I think Dale was a place where men lived, out pretty far east. The Kingdom under the Mountain was dwarvish, under the Iron Hills I think (A possible name)

Dimrill Dale's elvish name was Nanduhirion, a cool name.

I think names that are more descriptive are better. Ferrousland maybe, ferrous coming from latin for iron...

"Far East Province" would cause confusion if we conquer Persia later.

Thank you for the screenshot. I like the names Sub Montibus and Dale the best.

I think we should name it El Nido Sub Montibus Marbule Dale

I think Marbule is better than Dale for this one, because there is much more water than in our Chicago Province (completely mountaineous)

Dale is different from Dimrill's Dale. REad the Pologue to LoTR:

quote: ...the dwarf-hoards of the Kings under the Mountain, beneath Erebor [the lonely mountain] in Dale...

Iron hills is completely separate from dale. On the LoTR map, the Iron Hills are pretty far east of Erebor.

Unfortunately, AFAIK, there is no elvish name for Dale.

I dunno, you might want to come up with something a little more......... "normal".

Otherwise you may get "kicked" out of office just so the Region's citizens can get someone in to rename it.

Well, as long as we're on the J.R.R. Tolkien\Fantasy stuff, I'll suggest Moria.

But I also like the Iron Curtain
