You forgot the Natal Dunes :p
 
Just realised that lakes will feel very neglected without names.

Now those the Netherlands have enough of. Though, far fewer than we did in the past... (dikes man, dikes and windmills to pump out water)

Drakensbergen (SA, in zulu named differently)
Helderberg (SA)
Magaliesberg (SA)
Vaalserberg (highest point in the European Netherlands, but even though we call it a mountain (berg) it's only a hill with its 329 meters)
Bovengebied (on Northern St Eustatius with the Boven, Signal Hill and Bergje tops)

Volcanos: (surprisingly for most we do have 2 volcanoes in the Netherlands, the Caribbean Netherlands that is)
Mount Scenery (on Saba, also the highest point in the Netherlands)
The Quill (on St Eustatius, originally De Kuil in dutch)
others maybe: Beerenberg on Jan Mayen Island, Norway but named by dutch whalers and it means Bears Mountain)

Deserts: (not really but we have what is called in dutch Stuifzandgebieden, Drift sand areas)
Kootwijkerzand
Hulshorsterzand
Stroese Zand
Lutterzand

Nationaal Park De Biesbosch
Nationaal Park Utrechtse Heuvelrug
Nationaal Park Weerribben-Wieden

Crater lake has a name. :p

I would have liked to seen them. They probably didn't bother since there are no natural disasters associated with them. Still would have been nice to see though. But perhaps it would be jarring to see Lake Superior as some one tile lake. :lol:

You missed the Osoyoos Desert (also known as the Okanagan Desert).

And yes, as noted above, definitely the St. Lawrence River. There's 100s of large river systems in Canada, though, so really hard to find fault. :)
 
Apparently Canada has a volcano called Volcano Mountain... I can't wait to see that in print on my Civ6 map.

Yeah, the Aussies got nothing on us. :crazyeye:

Fortunately, our federal government has helpfully supplied a list of volcanoes in Canada. Along with pointing out that an American volcano (Mt. Baker) may represent the greatest threat to Canadian lives. :)

The Cascades extend into Canada, so Canada's swimming in volcanoes just like the Western US. :p
I know that, but the poster forgot to include volcanoes in their post. If anyone doesn't mind, I will do the rest of the Civs! :D
