The Magellanican Technocratic Commonwealth (Mag: Tiqkara Anakte Kunrat ~~Telyuq~~) comprises the entirety of the fictional continent of Magellanica which lies in the southern Pacific Ocean from 35°S to 65°S, north to south, and from 110°W to 140°W, east to west. Its nearest continental neighbour is Antarctica which is about 1100 km due south of Magellanica.

====General Remarks On Orthography====

Magellanican is written in a native script (Mag: ~~Tinulyeyat Telyuq~~) which is an alphabet derived from an earlier featural abugida. The Latin script was introduced in the 18th Century in order to take advantage of imported printing presses from Europe. The current situation is one of digraphia with the ~~Tinulyeyat~~ Ūrampu (Latin Alphabet) being primarily used for scientific and technical publications and the ~~Tinulyeyat Telyuq~~ being mostly used for literature, religion and art. Outside these domains for more mundane matters, the Latin Alphabet is used by the upper echelons of society and the Magellanic Alphabet by the lower.
