Aaah, I getcha! I might try one closer to the spirit of the game based in the UK then, as I'm more familiar with our Historical places XD

Thank you!! I admit when I got my starting area I was a bit stumped (no shade to Nebraska, but I couldn't find too many areas of uh, historical interest for Calrum and had no idea of the page that GAVE historial areas on Wikipedia) so at the moment Calrum is just slowly working his way out of the only area he's ever grown up with that so far, have all happened to be occupied (minus Curtis, which I'm hoping will be a spooky mystery). I was also working under the Fallout sort of logic - where there's interest, thats where people will try to live and survive.
I think I was also working under the idea that 'historic interest' is a wild and varied thing, because while landmarks and things like that are Historic, for a generation of people (in this game at least, the people alive are about 2 generations removed from the Ending, though this will be clearer later! I might pop this into the main page though to kind of set the scene) things that let them navigate the land, learn how to live again or provide a tangible benefit to their settlement would be just as 'historic'.
Its why when I got Wellfleet:Occupied at the next stop, I had to think of why they'd be there to survive of all places, and thought the Post Office that showed up on Googlemaps, with its previous huge geographical knowledge and connections to other places, would be the reason they stopped there.
Part of this is also my personal unfamiliarity with the USA tho, being that I'm from the UK XD So I'm sort of on a virtual roadtrip with Calrum at this point, trying to find new places. I am aware though that its not 100% on the rules, I'm just trying to be flexible for where he is at the moment.
I'm also very sorry for rambling and over-explaining myself, can you tell I'm over-excited about this game haha
LOVE this game. I set up a Notion page to keep my game logged, and it looks so cool set up this way. Its just a neat way to link all the entries together and look fake-official!
I imagine this can also be played non-America based if you were so inclined!
