'''[[Mount Murphy]]''' is a massive, snow-covered and highly eroded shield volcano with steep, rocky slopes. It is directly south of the [[Bear Peninsula]] in [[Westarctica]]. The mountain is bounded by the [[Smith Glacier|Smith]], [[Pope Glacier|Pope]], and [[Haynes Glacier]]s. Its lower slopes terminate at the [[Crosson Ice Shelf]].
'''[[Hooverville]]''' is a city in the [[Colony of Calsahara]]. It is the only permanent structure in the entire colony. The [[Count of Dendtler]] is the Mayor of Hooverville. It lies within the Barony of Bastanchury in the [[Principality of Bohemia]]. During the [[Invasion of Calsahara|Liberation of Calsahara]], Hooverville was considered a vital target for the [[Westarctican Royal Guards]]. Shortly after [[Otisburg]] was overrun, the Royal Guards marched on Hooverville and victory was proclaimed from the house's broken steps.


Mount Murphy was delineated from aerial photographs taken by [[U.S. Navy]] Operation Highjump in January 1947. Named by US-ACAN for Robert Cushman Murphy of the American Museum of Natural History, noted authority on [[Antarctica|Antarctic]] and sub-Antarctic bird life. While serving on a [[whaling]] ship, he charted the Bay of Isles region of South Georgia. During a 1968 biological survey of [[Marie Byrd Land]], Mount Murphy was one of the few locations where [[snow petrel]]s were discovered. In addition to the petrels, the survey team also found algae.
