Have you picked a starting city yet?

If not, I would suggest you stay away form Yellowleaf and Harn. I have
heard that they are very populated already.

After that, it would depend on what you wanted to do. If you plan to build
a boat. I would suggest one of the norther cities. If the world truly
starts at aa00[2], the best bet for new land is to sail north as fast as
possible.

If you want to stay on Provincia, just about any city would do you well, as
long as you started inland. Judgeing from the lack of activity[3], Port
Aurnos seems to be fairly vacent, same with Greyfell, and it is closer to
the center of Provincia.

Hmm, does anyone have a good list of relitive activity and land usage
around the starting cities? I've gotten three such requests in the last
week. Its like theres a promotion or something going on. :_) [4]

[1] I'm assuming you have not by your message.
[2] which most educated mappers and scholars aggree it does
[3] That is to say, very few people have contacted me from those areas.
A fact I would like to rectify.
[4] Hmm? What was that? I'm turning green? *sigh* Am I that apparent? :_)
