Talk:Akota

Interactive Atlas?
The map of Zakhara by HandsomeRob shows a town called Akota on the Western shore of Zakhara. I have read in a forum that the Forgotten Realms Interactive Atlas also shows a city named Akota there. If anyone can verify that, we should make a note in the article. If so, I can easily imagine how it came to that, as the Golden Voyages Map Booklet does not show the Western shore of Zakhara and only has an arrow pointing in that direction labelled "to Akota". Or both sources could be accepted as true. (Maybe the Zakharan trading post was named after its main trading partner overseas?) Daranios (talk) 19:48, May 9, 2015 (UTC)
 * The Interactive Atlas does indeed show Akota as a city. It is located south of the eastern tip of the Range of the Marching Camels. The given maps in the Al-Qadim books do not quite stretch that far. The sourcebooks clearly refer to Akota as a nation however - perhaps the huge chain of undocumented islands beyond the point where the IA locates the city, making the city a massive trading post for caravan drivers to gain access to Akotan goods. That kind of discussion is more suited to Candlekeep however. -hashtalk 00:00, May 10, 2015 (UTC)
 * So what do you think of the way the city is included in the article now? Does the Interative Atlas also give a size range for the city, so that we could add a Category:Settlements by population? Thanks a lot! Daranios (talk) 10:03, May 10, 2015 (UTC)
 * I think the solution you've come up with is the best one until we can get more solid information (which we will not be getting any time soon I think). -hashtalk 23:46, May 10, 2015 (UTC)
