After my experience with the subarctic climate-type colony in the north, I have decided to start my own thread about an island in the south, where weather is the most important factor there. I will primarily deal with the weather, issuing weather warnings and such, but I will also control the small government on the island.

The rain-forested island of Alcatraz, located in the southern portion of the Pacific Ocean near Indonesia, has been discovered to be filled with rich ore and oil deposits. Almost all of the resources are located in the jungle, with the exception of oil, which is located deep at sea. Storms have been common in the region, and so have odd geological oddities. Since Stoklomolvi is too far away to establish effective mining colonies there, it has decided to open it up to other nations. However, the weather may discourage some from creating colonies; beware. A Map of the jungle island is below:

There will be certain environmental restrictions to keep the natives happy, who are on the other side of the island. Military forces are strictly forbidden, and all cities must be registered with the Stoklomolvi Department of Environmental Concerns. There will be a low, low tax of 0.01%, or 0.0001 part taken by the Stoklomolvi Dep. of Environmental Concerns to keep the island happy.

[OOC: Am I accepted?]

[OOC: All are accepted, and yes Greal you may make the thread when more than five countries have settlements.]

Note: Large populations are harder to sustain and are likely to be more affected by disease and natural disasters, just a heads up

We thank you for the warning, and will decrease the planned opulation to 10,000.

Understood.
