Politics
Government
The combined group effort that today is known as BoS Island is not ruled by a single individual, such as a mayor, but instead is held together by a sense of friendship and comraderie. The inhabitants regulary comes together to work on larger projects. From time to time the group has been known to temporarly invite friends and travelers to live as citizens in the village, or to invite honorary citizens. People invited in this way do not have a vote when deciding issues that concern the citizenry, but they will of course listen to their input.
Language use
People of many ages inhabit the island, and the languages spoken most frequently are swedish and english. Regular chat regulations are naturally being followed, however the inhabitants wish to apologize beforehand to the non-swedish speakers that happen to pass by if they feel left out of the loop when swedish is being spoken.
Resources
The community has about all the resourses a wurmian might need very close by. (More to come later.....)
History
As remembered by the inhabitants.
The story of BoS actually starts without any of its current members, with a fellow by the name Amader. He, in turn, attracted Solver to the game and Einnel, Daash, Theacke, Madboy, Rmt and Tottman were soon to follow. The site where we all settled down was dubbed Wolf Hill, due to the frequence of said lupine at the site, even though it was too close to Serenity Port for an actual deed to be planted without permission. We asked for that from the Serenity Port mayor, but were rudely denied and so eventually we packed up and left for other lands.
Amader, together with his RL friend Madonna, went seperate ways from the rest of us and settled in the far north while the rest of us finally found ourselves at a tranquil bay in the south, approximately SSW of Mesa Verde, where we settled down and founded the Bay of Swedes.
Bay of Swedes was the name of our community, as most of us wanted their own homestead deed and founded them seperately. With time, our reputation on the Home server grew and our gathering became widely known. During this time some of our members stopped playing, but most remained. Several ambitious projects were attempted, and some even completed ;), and by the end of its time the bay had been transformed into a lush park of walkways, flower fields and oak tree groves.
With the advent of the Freedom server, and imminent closure of Home, the people of BoS packed up their bags and moved once more. Since we now had ships, the process was a bit easier this time. Arriving in freedom, we came upon a suitable island to the northeast of the main continent and swiftly claimed it as our own. This time we established a deed right away to cement our hold over the island. Since it wasn't an actual bay, we named it "BoS island" in honor of our past and the reputation it held.
Time will tell where we will go from here.
