Sicily

Sicily (in Greek Σικελία), also called The People of Sicily (in Ancient Greek ὁ δῆμος τῆς Σικελίας) was a transcontinental country located between Southern Europe and Northern Africa in the Vegetable Earth World. It spanned across the island of Sicily, Malta and the coastal areas of Algeria, Tunisia and Libya nearby. The de-facto capital city was Catania. 
== History ==
=== Foundation ===
Sicily was founded on October 24th of 2020 when the the Vegetable Earth World was launched. Prior the launch, the Sicilians were able to claim the main island, Malta, southern tip of Italian peninsula and coastal areas of Northern Africa.
The first settlers arrived on the eastern flatlands of Sicily and founded the soon-to-be capital city of the nation, Catania. The settlers were originated from Greece and the Hellenic culture is visible to this day: the official language of Sicily was Greek and just few days after the launch, the Temple of Artemis was constructed for Greek paganism.
=== Western expansion ===
Shortly after the city of Catania was founded, more and more of the settlers started to expand the country elsewhere. A gigantic pyramid was built on top of the island of Malta. The city of Marsala was founded on the western flatlands. Marsala provided the Parliament House for the Sicilian government. Located between Marsala and Catania, the town of Apotomos was a residential area built on a steep mountainside.
== Settlements ==
Sicily had six settlements. Four of these were located on the main island.
