About Vermont[]

Vermont's terrain is one of mountain ranges of medium-height, intermixed with valleys and plains. 6% of the land is urban or agrarian. The rest is of a natural variety, mostly forested, but including meadows, uplands, lakes, ponds and swampy wetlands. The latter 94% includes forests managed sustainably, although the majority of land is unmanaged. The population is mostly split between Europeans (mostly English and Occitanians) and Aboriginals (mostly Mahicans, Pocumtuk, Pennacook, and Kaniatarowanennehs (OTL Laurentian Iroquois)). Vermont has a long history with vegetarianism, and indeed its capital, Montpelhier, is the only N.E. provincial capital that has Government Mandated Vegetarianism (aka a "meat ban").

Divisions[]

Vermont has numerous divisions, including counties, Semi-Autonomous Regions/Areas (SARs/SAAs), and Nature Preservation Areas (NPAs).
