What is your Sim Nation name?

I haven't given it a name, but I treat all non-vacation worlds as if they're part of one country or region. I don't play the Sims as if it's a mini-USA. The othering of certain worlds (Mt. Komorebi, Sulani) irritates me, so my Sims freely travel around and try to represent more than just Western culture with their food, holidays, daily customs, etc. IRL, I know a scary amount of people who while primarily living on one side of a huge country like the USA have traveled to the other side for work during the week and I'm probably not someone who is going to settle down in one country anyway, so I don't see the need for travel restrictions in my game either, especially since the in-game worlds are tiny.

Interesting! I started out with just a "region", because I was not playing on a stately level. But as more worlds were added and my political system grew, I now find myself playing the Mazaloom kingdom, and the Empire of Snorthia and Sea kingdom :) Mazaloom is my main focus, involving most of the worlds (I refer to them as Districs). Snorthia covers Mt Komorebi and Tomarang, while Sea kingdom covers Sulani and Selvadorada. Mazaloom has 8 regions but I basically group districts based on climate zones, Windenburg in the far north and San Sequoia/Tartosa/Del Sol Vally in the south. There are 4 political parties in my game, and because here is an ongoing regional reform the next election might turn a few factors upside down, looking forward to see who will become the President ;)

I tend to go by official names of the worlds and I sometimes refer to areas as Sims 2 worlds instead like
Strangerville x Chestnut Ridge x Oasis Springs x Del Sol Valley = Different parts of Strangetown

when I refer to all worlds that exist in the game its usually SimEarth or Simland or whatever
and sometimes I forget names and just say Medieval Island or Windenburg Island instead of uh whats it called again

Planet Sym has two major nations composed of different lands. The human world, Symlandia, has these lands: Willow Creek, Oasis Springs, Brindleton Bay, Strangerville, Windenburg, San Myshuno, and Del Sol Valley. The enchanted world, The Myst, has Glimmerbrook, Granite Falls, Mooncrest (Newcrest+Magnolia Promenade), Henford on Bagley, Copperdale and Britechester. Windenburg is on the border of the two nations and is magic friendly. Selvadorada and Moonwood Mill are independent lands and are Myst allies. San Myshuno is a sanctuary city. Forgotten Hollow is independent and antagonistic to both nations.

Simville, which dates from TS2 days. Have also used the term Simlands, again a TS2 thing.

Myself, I tend to clump the "worlds" together in groups... Willow Creek, Newcrest and Magnola Prominade being one, San Myshuno, San Sequoia and Del Sol Valley being another. I haven't come up with a name for the overall "Sim Nation" however.

That’s exactly what I do as well. I never thought of a name for the world as a whole, but the individual worlds are grouped together in named "regions", "districts", "countries" or whatever I feel like calling them at a given time, and each has a capital as well.

Right now, these are my regions/districts/countries with their capitals + other worlds:
Central City - San Myshuno + Willow Creek, Magnolia Promenade, Evergreen Harbor, San Sequoia
Western Desert - Del Sol Valley + Oasis Springs, Chestnut Ridge, StrangerVille, Tartosa
Eastern Countryside - Windenburg + Brindleton Bay, Britechester, Copperdale
Icy North - Mt. Komorebi + Newcrest (turned into an eternal winter world via mod)
Tropical South - Tomarang + Selvadorada (turned residential via mod), Sulani
Hidden Magic Forest - Granite Falls (same as Selvadorada) + Glimmerbrook, Forgotten Hollow, Moonwood Mill

Did I forget any? I don’t have the Star Wars pack, so Batuu does not exist in my universe.

Gameplay-wise, I try to restrict where sims can easily travel based on their hometowns, or at least I did until High School Years farted in my face with its restriction of only allowing one school for the entire sim universe. I make exceptions for cases like this, but other than that, say you’re a resident of Oasis Springs and want to get your nails done, but there’s no nail saloon in any of the desert worlds surrounding you, then sorry, you have to wait until one opens or ask a friend to do them for you.

Well, I'm not a Sims 4 player, but I noticed the title of this thread... I have placed every town that I'm playing on a map in a country called "The United Kingdom of Simbria". Maybe not the most creative name, but that's what I came up with back then. This nation again lies on, of course, a planet in some place in a galaxy far, far away... called "The Simtopian Planet". Of course, this means that there are other countries there as well, I drew a map of the entire thing, but I didn't name all the countries yet. Three other countries have been mentioned though.

1) The tropical island nation of Belo Horizonte (Sunlit Tides).
2) Communist dystopia Ines Wrist and
3) Genaro Molokai, which is the neighbouring country of Ines Wrist to the south.

Every nation also have their own flag.

Also, my country of "The United Kingdom of Simbria" is also divided into several former kingdom of its own, all of them named and with their own capitol cities.

Awesome... and great to see I'm not the only person who thinks about these things. :)

I use Kuttoe's Home Regions mod to enforce regional divisions in the game. It's pretty good about keeping walkbys and venue sims limited to those from selected worlds. No Sulai beach-bums randomly showing up at Grimtooth's bar. :)

My regions currently are:

• Willow Creek: Willow Creek, Magnolia Prominade and Newcrest
  
• Windenburg: Windenburg, Britechester, Henford on Bagley, Granite Falls, Forgotten Hollow
  
• The City: San Myshuno, San Sequoia, Del Sol Valley and Oasis Springs
  

The other worlds pretty much stand alone, though I have things set so sims from Moonwood Mill can visit Evergreen Harbor but not visa versa. In my story, Moonwood Mill, Glimmerbrook and Evergreen Harbor are all on the outskirts of Windenburg but they don't get tourists. Glimmerbrook is, notoriously, not on any map and you can only find it if you know the way.

I'm still pondering my own SimNation name. Eventually, my story will back me into a corner on it and I'll have to come up with something.

I'd still love to hear how more folks organize your worlds and if you have a name for the SimNation(s). Keep 'em coming.

I love Home Regions! It’s made this kind of gameplay possible.

I also have Glimmerbrook as a hidden community in The Myst, along with Sylvan Glade and Forgotten Grotto. I have Sylvan Glade located in the Deep Woods beyond Granite Falls, accessible only if you can find the hidden trail. I use Zero’s All Worlds Are Residential mod to create a community of elves and fairies in Granite Falls. Forgotten Grotto contains the ruins of the Library of the Arcane, and is only accessible to Morgyn Ember and residents of Sylvan Glade, who are its caretakers. An elf named Freddie Frogwhacker guards the Sylvan Glade tree entrance in Willow Creek, since it’s in the human nation.

With Glimmerbrook, it’s surrounded by an impenetrable mist, which was eventually duplicated to separate the enchanted world from the human one, giving the enchanted nation its name. All of The Myst is linked by a portal travel system. To get to Glimmerbrook, Mystians can travel to HoB and meet Bonaparte Smythe, who will guide them in if they’re approved to enter.

Outsiders who want to visit The Myst have to apply for permission. If granted, they are sent instructions to a meeting spot (usually in the Windenburg forest). Bonaparte Smythe will meet them there and guide them in.

Unrelated, in my story, Bonaparte drives a llama cart for hire when he’s not a secret guide. Of course, the llama is the fancy one from the Cottage Living trailer. I’d love to actually have him do that. ?

I don't have a name for my worlds, they all go by their original names and I all together they make up the sim world. It could also be sim land or sim stan but I haven't given much thought to it. My sims are world hoppers and think nothing of having breakfast in Oasis Springs while they live in Willow Creek , going for a swim and lunch in Sulani and then night clubbing in Windenberg.
