== History ==
After the annexation of the Republic of Valbania by Almaren in 1609 BCS, the former government, led by none than Valbano himself, fled to a remote freezing island just 600 blocks north-east of Anthropia and 500 south of Atlantis. As the first settlers arrived on the frozen beaches of Isla, a small camp was built to protect the people from the freezing temperatures. After 2 months, in June 1608 BCS, a new constitution was written and the new republic was born. 83% of the 3'400 inhabitants voted for the constitution, 11% did not vote and a mere 2% voted against it, mainly composed of rich families not wanting to lose their power. 
== Geography ==
The Island is located in the north of the Shattered Sea, and its location provides an intermedium stop for the ships travelling between Anthropia and Atlantis. The Island is surrounded by massive icebergs on all sides, and the weather is cold through-out the year, except the three months of summer. The Island itself is flat, mostly made out of sand and has some rare natural sugar canes on it. Snow is pretty common and water is a scarce resource.
== Demographics ==
The Republic of Isla has a total population of 7'100 people as of 1605 BCS, built of 59.8% Valbanians, 33.0% Puebians and Southern People (SCP and Caleumni), 0.3% Almarenis and 1.0% Shattians (the origins of those people is uncertain, they lived in the iced seas for centuries).
