Map and Geography

In its early history, activity and role playing in Wysteria took place on what is now the Northern hemisphere. It was designed and maintained by Equus, one of the founders of the region. As more nations arrived and Wysteria grew larger, there was a need to expand the map to incorporate the new nations and a Southern hemisphere was added. Thus younger nations and continents are concentrated in the Southern hemisphere while older and more established nations are in the Northern hemisphere.

Regional alliances also developed along hemispherical lines such as LONAS (League of Non-aligned States) developed that quickly became the SWEC (South Wysterian Economic Community). This in turn became the Wysterian Union when the desire to expand beyond the southern hemisphere of the SWEC's mandate.

The map also reflects vanishing nation syndrome, which affected most, if not all, regions in NationStates.

For example, the continent of Stanley which was added after the immigration of nations from the NHL region who was experiencing VNS in the southern hemisphere. Additionally, the Wysterian Territories were added to remember earlier nations who had suffered from VNS.
