  • Note : This object is not a place for edit wars. Keep the edits when there's a major change to the Canton. Thanks.
  • When did Tel Rifat become part of this canton? I thought it was part of Efrin Canton.
  • In face of the recent military and political event in this region, I've decided to separate the Shahba Region in 2 areas; Tal Rifaat and Manbij admnistration, to have better organized polygons and info. Another polygon for the geographical region of Shahba can also be done later.
  • As the borders of this area seem to have been settled, I'll be "filling" the polygon. If any new conflicts start, the "double line" model can return so all users can edit it.
  • Adjusting the area of control according to Syrian Civil War Map.
