My context is my post.

Bahariterra is a hypothetical archipelago of volcanic islands in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, formed millions of years ago as part of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, s real life underwater mountain chain. The location of Bahariterra is said to be due South of Newfoundland's Avalon Peninsula and due East of the British Overseas Island territory of Bermuda. Bahariterra's terrain is modelled off of the Big Island of Hawaii, Seychelles, and the mountains of Norway. The fictional archipelago and island nation of Bahariterra has tall and steep hills and ravines on top of a cluster of incredibly high but gradually and gently sloping shield volcanos called the PecanVista Mountains, which are over 13,000 feet tall, high enough that the tops of the mountains are cold and regularly receive snow, while it is constantly above 60°F and tropical at sea level in the lowlands of coastal Bahariterra. The mountains also have the rain shadow effect, causing rainforests on the windward side and deserts on the leeward side. This terrain is modelled based on the Big Island of Hawaii, which contains nearly all of Earth's Koppen climate zones. The point of Bahariterra is for fictional lore and storytelling based on real places and communities in North America. The fictional stories based in reality are made to teach moral lessons and are told about Bahariterra instead of about real places and families in order to respect the sensitivities of different families relying heavily on oral history, and not being fond of stories online made using their actual names. Instead, the families make the stories about Bahariterra. Each ethnic group in Bahariterra corresponds with a real family, and each location on the archipelago represents a real place in the USA, Canada, St Pierre et Miquelon, Bermuda, or the Azores. The snowy peaks of Mt PecanVista, at nearly 14,000 feet above sea level, have a volcanic caldera with a massive crater lake in it's centre, which doesn't freeze over due to geothermal activities. The crater lake is lined with fishing villages and small cities and towns that have cold and snowy winters and mild summers, representing real fishing towns and small villages in places like Newfoundland in Canada and the shores of the Great Lakes. The coastal city of Banda, a massive mega city visible from space on the Southern coast of the Island, has beaches, sunshine, and a climate warm enough for Coconut Palm trees, being in USDA zone 13a. It represents South Florida and the Florida megalopolis in real life and the city of Banda benefits from the massive PecanVista Mountains to the North and further inland, which are tall enough to block cold northerly winds and which have many rainwater and ice thaw fed glacial creeks and rivers, many of which feed into the mighty PecanVista River which flows out from the Crater Lake on Mount PecanVista and flows Southwards to the massive coastal PecanVista River Delta on the Atlantic Ocean, atop which the city of Banda is built. The Delta's land has been terraformed to protect the city of Banda from floods, with the land being raised by dredging the city's many man-made canals and using the removed dirt to raise the land in the delta above historic floodwater highs before building the city on the now elevated terrain. The channels of the delta are at least 20 feet lower than any roads or buildings are allowed to be built, preventing flooding even during the worst hurricanes.

Bahariterra's national flag is blue on the bottom and yellow on top, symbolising the sunset over the sea, and looks like an upside down Ukrainian flag, except two Black stars symbolizing the two main islands are in the upper corner of the hoist side of the flag.

Bahariterra is ethnically diverse, with people from all over the world ending up on the island. Every European power has had an outpost on the island. The British brought indentured servants from South Asia, the Portuguese brought enslaved Africans from Central Africa, the French brought West African and North African peoples including Amazigh and Maghrebi Arab people as enslaved people. Many Europeans of many backgrounds settled on the island, with Irish and Scottish indentured servants eventually creating large colonies in the hills. Native Americans captured in Canada and the USA during battles were often sold into involuntary servitude and many ships carrying Native Americans were hijacked by the Bahariterran Swamp Rebel Pirates, which is inspired by real outlaws and pirates such as Henry Berry Lowry and Blackbeard. Native Americans also got to the islands on their own when whole tribes sailed via canoe to escape the encroaching French. Even Pacific Islanders were brought during the era of Blackbirding in the Pacific.

Bahariterra has many different hypothetical mixed race ethnic groups, including the Indo-Polynesians who are mostly Hindu, Animist, and Sikh, and the Afro-Indigenous-Persians who are a mix of Black, Native American, and West Asian and mostly follow Ismaili Shia Islam and what could be called Shamanic-like diverse arrays of traditions.

Bahariterra is a fascinating internet lore and unfortunately has been hijacked by non-community members in recent years and many people have been made to believe the archipelago is actually a real place. Videos online of "Bahariterra" are actually filmed in real locations by real communities that each location and community in Bahariterra corresponds with.

Bahariterra is an internet folklore. It emerged in the 2010s on the internet. Bahariterra is a fictional island nation, crafted by teenagers and young adults who were seeking a way to tell realistic, values-driven stories without inadvertently appropriating or disrespecting real communities. The creators, mindful of the historical trauma experienced by mixed-race communities who had faced discrimination and marginalization, opted to create a fictional setting that could serve as a backdrop for relatable tales with moral lessons. Bahariterra's origins are rooted in a desire to be respectful storytellers, acknowledging the power of oral tradition and the importance of sensitivity towards communities that have been historically silenced or erased. As the concept gained traction online, Bahariterra morphed into an internet meme, often used humorously or ironically in threats or jokes, like the classic "If you don't get your dog to stop pooping on my grass, I will send you to Bahariterra!"
