Dogger Isles

The Dogger Isles officially the Dogger Isles Territory, is a territory in northern Dogeland made up of mostly ocean and small to large islands ranging from vast birch forests and mountainous wilderness. It is bordered by Grassy Plains, Quenchland, and the Wulflands to the west, south, and east respectively. 
The Dogger Isles has a population of 5.8 million people. Its capital and largest city in the territory is Gromboners (Not to be confused with Gromboner's Island). Other notable towns/cities are Settler's Cove, Doggersea, Peeners, and Oceansea. The former capital city in the Dogger Isles was Settler's Cove. Gromboners city became the capital in 1945 after Settler's Cove during the 1940s was bombarded with artillery and was left destroyed and uninhabitable by Catland during World War II. The city of Settler's Cove has yet recovered to a habitable state and has been since 1972. However, there are still scars within the city that remain one of the burdens that constantly remind locals of the horrors of the Third Kattish Invasion of Dogeland. 
The Dogger Isles has a Baseball team known as the Pickeldown Peeners (named after Bernadette Peeners), which has a strong rivalry with neighbour state, Grassy Plains and their team - the Grassy Gromboners. 
== Trivia or Facts ==
* The Dogger Isles was the only entire region to be captured and occupied by Catland during the Second World War and the Third Kattish Invasion of Dogeland. During Kattish-occupation which lasted from 1941-1943, many civilians took up arms and fought bravely without Dogeish military help against the Kattish armies. This was known as the Dogger Isle Uprising in 1942, which lasted into 1943 when Dogeish military forces finally stormed through the Isles during the Bloody Charge - which Dogeish and Dogestanian allied forces advanced into Catland, which Dogeland has not done since before the 17th century in attempt to capture Catland's capital city of Kattstad, which was successful after a bloody 5-month operation. The Bloody Charge prompted many civilian armies to take advantage of a weakened Catland, who could no-longer be supported in the Dogger Isles as its sensitive cities were now being captured by the Doges. 
* There was a Tsunami in 1919 that terrorized locals of the Dogger Isles territory and to the north-coast of Grassy Plains and Quenchland. It was called the Maltenese Tsunami, named after the Maltenese sea just north-west of the territory. Waves reached to 39.3 metres, decimating coastal towns, flooding 5 kilometres inland. This was the largest tsunami ever recorded in Dogeland and in the Dogeandicate Continent, killing an estimated 128,000 people. Total damage was estimated at roughly $10 million, plunging Dogeland and parts of Catland into an even steeper economic crisis following the First World War which ended a year prior. In fact, this event had actually been the cause of so many towns/cities being built on mountains after Tsunami.
* The Dogger Isles is believed to be the entrance into the Dogeandicate Holy land by those who follow Kanikism (Kaniks). Gromboners is referred to as the location where the first peoples (Descendants from Doggerland) arrived into the Dogeandicate. On Kanika, those who celebrate the day traditionally, and are conveniently in Gromboners city will gather on the docks/ports and spend Kanika praying to Kani and sending off frigid leaf boats that hold blue poppy flowers into the horizon - which is Canisapien and Felisapien tradition, sending appreciation to Kani's daughters Ikanuette and Okanuette.
