Place Content Example

* Preference is “Collectioned” Hierarchy for all content.

Collectioned Hierarchy = Steel Realms > Geopolitical Areas > Regions > Heartlands > Territories > Central Heartlands > Principalities > Dunstrand > Domains > Bar-Innis (Earldom) > Groups > Lowland League Alliance > Locale> Braddon Bog > Places > Companion Library

{URL} = srlm/loc/heart/loc/central/loc/dunstrand/loc/bar-innis/loc/lowland/loc/braddon/loc/comp-lib

Direct Hierarchy = Steel Realms > Geopolitical Areas > Heartlands > Central Heartlands > Dunstrand > Bar-Innis (Earldom) > Lowland League > Braddon Bog > Companion Library

{URL} = srlm/loc/heart/central/dunstrand/bar-innis/lowland/braddon/comp-lib

Geographical Region Content Example

* Preference is “Collectioned” Hierarchy for all content.

Local Geographical Elements When a geographical element is completely contained within a branch of a geopolitical area (a minor element), it should follow the convention of lowland/geo/[name]; ex: Lowland League Alliance > Geographical Features > The Bult Marshes

Direct Hierarchy = Steel Realms > Geo > Continent of Ustermaya > Tolkisson Mountain Range

Direct Hierarchy = Steel Realms > Geo > Continent of Ustermaya > Impli Peninsula > The Tangled Forest

Collectioned Hierarchy = Steel Realms > Geological Areas > Continent of Ustermaya > Geographical Features > Tolkisson Mountain Range

Collectioned Hierarchy = Steel Realms > Geological Areas > Impli Peninsula > Geographical Features > The Tangled Forest
