Country Name: As you wish for it to appear on the map.
Location: Whereabouts in the NCS map you wish for it to be placed. The silly location names on my earlier draft should probably help here, actually. Utility!
General Description:Here is where you can specify the shape and size of your nation as well as whether it is coastal or landlocked, one of the islands, and so on. Also add if you wish to border a particular other nation. Specifics are useful, but please don't go overboard and keep in mind that I may not be able to honour all your wishes.
Capital:The name of your capital if you want to have one, and it's general (or specific) location.
Link to Nation wiki page: If you have one, obviously. This is useful to me as it gives me a sense of your nation that I can hopefully work into the map.
