Nothing, really. (not without genning a new world)
Check out the wiki page about advanced worldgen to lower layers.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

Keep the save - I saw a thread somewhere about somebody wanting an extremely deep world. I'll find it soon.

The negative or plus thing just refers to how deep you are under the surface at that given point. -16 isn't even that strange, I've had plenty of forts with caverns all of the way down in the -30 range.

And as for FPS, you can control how deep your world is in the init with the "layers above level X" you know. And until you mine it out the effect will be minimal, so if you are having serious FPS problems I highly doubt that that is the problem.

Also -60  maps?
and this is the third cavern.
so you can count the Magma sea and HFS in too.
So in total it is like - 90

Is your map flat or mountainous? Mountainous maps will have a higher - z-level values because if you are under one of the mountains it might read -40 and if you are under the valleys it will read -2.

I always marvel at how the generator "Chooses' where to put the Layers...

I once had a world were all three cave layers + magma sea were in the first 40 layers.
Converserly I once had a game where the Magma sea didn't START until layer 125, and went down till 175.

Goats will ignore your grass and eat the neighbours' roses. They're just evil bastards like that.
Probably thats why they are used with pentagrams on covers of Satanic Black Metal albums.
