Geography
As constituencies in Cascadia are based only on their contained towns, rather than defined geographic boundaries, there were no defined borders. However, it was generally defined as the insular urban area of the City of Olympia, while also including the mountain settlement of Gifford Pinchot, located on Mt. Adams, to the east of the City of Olympia's limits.
