Lena River Delta
Lena River Delta
A map by L4z0rr0b0tz
Greetings comrade, you have been selected to create a new republic on the Lena River Delta! The Lena River Delta sits on the coastline of the Arctic ocean, at the mouth of the longest river in Russia, in the far northern reaches of Siberia. There are few trees this far north, and most of the terrain is sandy sedimentary soil. But there is great opportunity here with vast deposits of oil and other minerals to be found. Most of your territory will be on the delta itself, with a modest amount of mountainous coastline containing coal and iron.
Ignore those who say that this place is nothing but a wild, unpopulated, mosquito infested swampland – using your bulldozers, it could become a very unique and powerful republic indeed. There are opportunities for trade and transport by sea, and the river itself is navigable back into Russia. There is just one medium customs office, with a power connection, to get you started. How you choose to approach this challenge is up to you.
Features –
– Created using real world Digital Elevation Model of the Lena River Delta
– Resources are all present with plentiful oil, but placed for challenge
– One customs office, rail, and electric connection for those who would like to play on realistic mode
– Timber and rock are somewhat scarce on the delta itself, but new trees could be planted by your workers
– Shallow and soft riverbanks will allow you to create canals or join islands however you like
– Custom borders with only ocean connection to western countries
– When the next update to the game is released I will re-release this map in the Siberian setting
