/c/map_enthusiasts has rapidly grown! Looking to add more mods, apply in this thread.

Hi folks! There hasn't been any misbehavior in this community, nor to be frank do I expect any, but it's good to have redundancy, cover **more time zones**, etc... in case of spambots and the like. I'm looking to add a couple more mods! I don't have many metrics by which to choose fellow mods (such as the age of the account) so **all you need to apply and get picked is to be active in this community** (which means contribute posts and/or comments... **the more quality contributions you've made the more likely you're to get picked**). I'm **CET**, btw. If you want to guard this community and help it stay a cozy place, apply here in the comments to become a mod. Feel free to add any additional reason why you think you should be picked! Are you a geographer? ~~Are you power hungry?~~ Are you ~~glued to your computer~~ an internet enthusiast? Apply now! Applications will be open for a while until I pick a couple of peeps.

Etihad Rail Network - Part of the Gulf Railway

Etihad Rail is one component of the [Gulf Railway](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_Railway) that will connect: Oman, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. So far it is the only part that is completed. Each country is responsible for its length of the railroad. The Arabian Gulf region is the least populated part of Saudi Arabia and therefore the Saudi length of the track is a low priority for the Saudi government and work is scheduled to start in 2026.

Please note state lines were disputed as depicted. Notably NH had older claims to the VT territory claimed by NY. And this list isn't all inclusive, there were many small fights.
