Amidst the war, economic activity in Lambat continues with several infrastructure projects being conducted by the government, including an expansion of the existing rail network, most notably the Gold Line connecting Lambat City to Chungia, and a link to the Copper Line. The ongoing period also saw an increase in agricultural output, under the supervision of Minister of Agriculture Magnileve.
 
On August 12th, 2022, a presidential decree was put into effect, establishing national parks as a means of preserving SOTW natural flora/terrain generation from destruction via player activity. The three areas given national park status were Mt. Abedul, Mt. Flor, and the Bulaclacan Fields. Existing infrastructure was not affected in any way by the decree and thus continued to operate as normal.
 
On August 27th, 2022, President kaprediem and leader of [[Varathia]] [[Aresot]] came to an agreement where a portion of north-east Varathia would be ceded to Lambat. The purpose was, according to kaprediem, to develop the land into farms. Later in the following days the area would be formally marked as Lambatan land, a firewatch would be built, and dark oak/jungle wood farming would commence shortly thereafter.

Pico de Blanco to the west (said mountain is in [[Zaalso State]]heavily territory)wooded.
 
North Varathia's climate is tropical, with it being completely covered by a dark-oak thicket. It features rocky, raised plateau terrain.
 
Both landmasses border the Stony Sea.
 
=== Lambat City ===
'''Lambat City''', or '''L-City''', is a sector comprising of the entire plains landmass south of the Mt. Flor flower forest. The capital of Lambat is situated here. It was initially settled as Pioneer Village, but later developed into its own district as infrastructure and buildings were built at a rapid pace.
 
There are currently three embassies builtestablished in Lambat City, twoonly one of which ([[Pavia|Pavian]] and [[Lusitania (CivMC)|Lusitan]]) are marked to be built in Poblacion. The third ([[Reconstruction Era]]) is built in the northern part of Pioneerand Villagefunctional.

==== Pioneer Village ====
The first settlements of Lambat were build here, including the Pioneer Torch, the L-City Warehouse, mines, farms, and St. Amogus Chapel. Roads are generally made of simple materials, such as various stones and grass paths. However, Queen Banyough Avenue (QBA) and other major roads that run through the area are deepslate-paved per normal convention.

==== Poblacion ====

[[File:Pico de Blanco.png|left|thumb|AK on top of Mt. Pico de Blanco beside a sign, read "smal was here"]]West of Pioneer District is the urban heart of L-City, Poblacion. Governmental-purpose buildings, embassies (with the exception of [[Reconstruction Era|ReEra's]]), large-scale businesses, and various public amenities are located here. Buildings in this area tend to be larger-scale, taller and made of more advanced material, due to both looser building restrictions and greater government spending in the area. However, because of these factors (as well as existing mandates requiring homes be built in Pioneer Village), little if any residential buildings are present.

Following the passing of Minecraft Youtuber [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technoblade Technoblade], the north-south running boulevard in western Poblacion was renamed to Technoblade Blvd via a proclimation made July 1st by president [[Kaprediem]].
==== Northend ====
Northend is located north of Pioneer Village, separated by athe standardGold 5-blockLine and deepslateUniversity roadStreet.

==== Katipan ====
Katipan district is a thin strip of land encompassing the northernmost area of Lambat City. It borders Northend to the south, Mt. Abedul to the west, and Mt Flor to the north. It is connected to Judea via the Two-Cities Bridge, a medium-sized wonder featuring two tall towers inspired by industrial European architecture.
 
Katipan's infrastructure is mostly funded and built by AK[[AKJanklin]]. Aside from the rail station, the buildings present are privately owned and form a sizeable brewing and tourism industry.
 
=== Monte Flor ===
Mt. Flor is a tall flower forest hill located north of L-City bordering Katipan. It is the main separator dividing L-City from Capeland.
 
=== Chungia ===
'''Chungia''', formerly known as '''Capeland''', is a province comprising the entirety of the northern plain. Chungia borders the [[Lyrean Sea]] to its north, with [[Letos]] being the closest foreign power across the channel to its northwest.[[File:KatipanStation.png|thumb|Katipan Station (July 9, 2022)]]
First named "Capeland," whose name originated from the Classics country [[Capeland|of the same name]], Chungia in CivMC is a sector of Lambat overseen by the Governor of Chungia. As of June 22, 2022, the Governor of Chungia is [[Orhint]].
 
Chungia's infrastructural development has been slow due in part to the residents being comprised mostly of newfriends, as well as a lack of resources and free-time to build. Some farms and small houses are built as temporary features however; Much of Chungia is planned by [[Orhint]] and [[Magnileve]] and will follow Victorian-era British style architecture.
The area is most commonly visited for its nether portal, which is available to Lambat and those with permission from Lambatan authorities. Though nothing is currently built in the region, a British Maritime theme inspired by Louche Lane and Diagon Alley is planned.

=== MonteValle AbedulOccidental ===
The '''Valle Occidental''', or the Western Valley, is an area in the west of the country. It features the central plain to its east (called "Newfriendland") and the Mt. Pico de Blanco mountain range to its west. Valle Occidental borders Mt. Blanco to the southwest, which is an important source of cold-climate crops for Lambat (Mt. Blanco is also farmed by the [[Mehri]] people, and the entire mountain is claimed by [[Za State]]).
Mt. Abedul is a birch forest hill located north-by-northeast of L-City. It was once Lambat's main source of birch wood, though now efforts are being made to preserve the natural birch trees present since CivMC SOTW.
=== Monte Pico de Blanco ===
Lambat once held territory past a canyon, on said territory stands the bald, snowy peak of Mt. Pico de Blanco (shortened to Blanco by most, notably the people of [[djani'hweh]]). The first person to summit Blanco is [[Smal]].
 
=== MonteNorth FlorVarathia ===
Lambat does not own the mountain itself, but still holds the territory behind the canyon.
'''North Varathia''' is an exclave located northeast of Varathia and south of Judea - its closest border being separated by Mainland Lambat border by approximately 200 meters. It is completely comprised of a tropical roofed-forest biome, with a beach overlooking Parfait Bay on its northernmost end.
 
North Varathia is an agriculturally-oriented region. It is mainly used to farm dark oak and jungle wood, and grows various tropical flora as well.
=== Valle Occidental ===
 
In between Mt. Abedul and Mt. Pico de Blanco lies the Valle Occidental, or Western Valley. It comprises of plains situated between rugged mountains to the west and birch forests to the east.
=== National Parks ===
National parks are government-protected areas of land where development and/or exploitation of resources is strictly not allowed. This is done in an effort to preserve the custom-generated environment (namely trees and terrain) set in place at the Start of the World.
 
There are currently three national parks in Lambat.
 
'''Monte Abedul''' is a mountain range situated northwest of Lambat City and east of the Valle Occidental. It is thickly covered by a birch forest, hence it being named after the Filipino word for "birch." Wild bees live gregariously in the woods of Mt. Abedul.
 
'''Monte Flor''' is a mountain range located directly in between Lambat City and Chungia. It mainly features rolling hills covered by colorful flowers and mixed woodland. Notably, there are a sizeable amount of conifers growing amongst the forest. These trees are endangered in Lambat, as they do not grow back if manually replanted in the area.
==== Newfriendland ====
A secret base and "vault" built by an unknown newfriend was built on the northeastern area of the Valle Occidental. Though snitches have been set up to try and identify the player(s) living in the area, no activity has been detected since. To name the general area, AK coined the term "Newfriendland" as a play on words between [[Jargon|Newfriend]] and "Newfoundland (and Labrador)," which is a province in Canada.
 
The '''Bulaclacan Field''' is a lush flower meadow located west of Chungia and south of Develhof, [[Djani'hweh]]. It is the only National Park to have been established with existing infrastructure; that being a tree farm operated by the [[Mehri]] people.
=== Bulaclacan ===
The Northeasternmost area of Lambat is mosty uninhabited flower forest, with a small patch of plains at it's southwestern tip. This area is known as Bulaclacan.
