What is Conworlding? Conworlding, also called worldbuilding, is the creative, artistic process of constructing an imaginary world or setting, sometimes associated with a whole fictional universe. The resulting world may be called a constructed world (shortened to "conworld"). The related, interchangeable term of "worldbuilding" was popularized at science fiction writers' workshops in the 1970s. Developing an imaginary setting with coherent qualities such as its history, geography, and ecology is a key task for many science fiction, fantasy, and speculative fiction writers. Worldbuilding often involves the creation of maps, a backstory (lore), flora, fauna, technology, and people for the world. Constructed worlds can enrich the backstory and history of fictional works, and it is not uncommon for authors to revise their constructed worlds while completing its associated work. Constructed worlds can be created for personal amusement and mental exercise, or for specific creative endeavors such as novels, video games, or role-playing games.

Featured article Grands Ballons | Featured city A montage of landmarks located in Grands Ballons. Author: Centrist16 Project: Altverse II Country: Sierra Population: 701,567 Province: Gold Coast Summary: Grands Ballons (/grænd 'bæl.loʊn/; French: Les Grands Ballons [le ɡʁɑ̃ balɔ̃] ( listen)) is a major port city on the Pacific coast of southeastern Gold Coast in the Sierran Southwest Corridor. As of 2020, its population was 701,567. It is the second most populous city in the Gold Coast and the eighteenth largest in the Kingdom. It is the seat of St. Anthony County and is an integral part of the Greater Porciúncula Area. In colloquial speech, it is commonly referred to by locals of the Southwest Corridor as GRABA or Graba (from GRAnds BAllons). Grands Ballons is a major center for tourism, finance, logistics, international trade, culture, commerce, media, entertainment, music, education, and the arts. It is home to the Port of Grands Ballons, which together with the neighboring Port of Porciúncula and Port of Little Gibraltar, form one of the world's largest cargo ports. The strong, historical presence of maritime trade and casual boating has led the city to proclaim itself as the "Aquatic Capital of Sierra". In 2011, it was recognized as an Alpha city. In 2020, the city ranked fourth in Sierra in importance in terms of economic activity, human capital, culture, and political status. It is well known for its strong French and Spanish heritage, and is considered the cultural center of the Saintiana, or the Creole Coast, an interprovincial region of Creole and French culture in the Southwest Corridor. It is also famous for its cuisine, music, and drinking culture (particularly for its cocktails and coffee), as well as its year-round festivals and international events. The 2017 Pawnee earthquake caused significant damage to buildings and infrastructure in the city's historic Old Spanish Town and older neighborhoods. As much as $20 million in damages in personal property were incurred as a result of the disaster. Like many other cities in the region recovering from the earthquake, Grands Ballons is undergoing an ambitious renovation project that includes earthquake-proofing the city infrastructure and updating its telecommunications network.

About the Wiki Originally founded on Wikia, the Constructed Worlds Wiki, affectionately known as Conworlds, is a place to host and share constructed worlds, alternate history, and other creative endeavours. Projects of any nature are welcome here, and creativity is encouraged! On Mainspace articles we suggest that writers follow our Manual of Style. The majority of content on the Mainspace is written in an encyclopedic format like on Wikipedia. For all other kinds of pages, there are a number of namespaces anyone can use. Editors can opt in their pages to our content assessment system, vote to feature articles at the village pump, and even earn awards and decorations for their writing. It is important to fully review and understand our policies and guidelines before editing on our Wiki. The Admins generally prefer to let people self-regulate, but it is for the sake of keeping Conworlds an inclusive and safe community that we insure compliance with these policies. Particularly of import are the protocols around copyrights. Aside from our policies, it is also important that users understand the Four Cs: civility, collaboration, consensus, and cooperation. Civility: Editors should treat each other with courtesy, good faith, and respect. Collaboration: Editors should make an effort to work together on shared projects. Consensus: Editors should participate in decision-making and seek arrangements which are suitable to all. Cooperation: Editors should never wantonly antagonize or hinder others. Finally, new editors or users should understand what Conworlds is not.

From the Admins The Constructed Worlds Wiki needs your help! Join the ACCTF today! The Attribution and Copyright Compliance Task Force (abbreviated ACCTF) is a Conworlds task force and project which aims to identify and resolve attribution issues involving the articles, templates, files, and categories of the Constructed Worlds Wiki. Due to the nature of the Constructed Worlds Wiki first and foremost as a worldbuilding community wiki that seeks to emulate the appearance and style of Wikipedia, many of its articles are based on or inspired by Wikipedia. Consequently, it may feature articles which may or may not properly attribute its Wikipedia sourced material. Material which has been copied, transposed, imported, or derived from Wikipedia (and elsewhere) which fail to have proper attribution may be in violation of Wikipedia's or other similar sites' copyrights. The Constructed Worlds Wiki administration takes this very seriously, as non-compliance or negligence may have legal ramifications. To that end, the ACCTF was created on 3 March 2023 to meet the demands and standards of proper attribution and copyright compliance with respect to Canadian copyright law. If you are interested in assisting the wiki with this important responsibility, please join the ACCTF today! For more information, visit the ACCTF page.

Yezhov was impeached by the Congress of Khraelyia in 1995, after inciting the 1995 constitutional crisis, by instituting martial law and attempting to subdue Congress. Before entering national politics, Yezhov was and still is the current CCO of the Mahnoliya Petrol (MP) oil company, which is the ninth-largest company in Khraelyia. Yezhov ran for president of Khraelyia in 1992, where he was the outside choice compared to incumbent Yaroslav Stetsko, and Farmer-Labour Party (FLP) politician Volodymyr Biletskyi. Despite the numerous odds, Yezhov beat both Biletskyi and Stetsko in the 1992 Khraelyi presidential election, with 41% of the vote compared to Stetsko's 24%, and Biletskyi's 35%. All three campaigns received accusations of voter fraud, however Yezhov received the most, with his campaign manager being convicted of Conspiracy to Commit Fraud in 1996. Yezhov argued in favour of anti-corruption, small government, and took a Khraelyia first stance, often disregarding Khraelyia's allies, and questioning Khraelyia's foreign involvement when funds could've been better used for the citizens. He was also very critical of the government of Khraelyia, critiquing their inaction during numerous events, including the 1990 Kirkassag–Goriyar border crisis. (Read more...)
