Veratol

Veratol is a Kushite settlement on the island of Wera Atoll in the northernmost part of the Kushite Sea archipelago. It shares a maritime border with several other Kushite settlements, as well as with the allied Kingdom of Councils, with Carven Town being the closest substantial settlement.
== History and etymology ==
Main article: Associated Territory of Wera Atoll
Previously settled by Kush as early as February 2021, the settlement called Wera was abandoned by the time the island was recolonized by Team Legendary, again under the flag of Kush. The original town hall and statue were preserved, as was the island's unique sandstone architecture, rather uncharacteristic of the island's temperate climate.
The name Veratol [pronounced VEH-ra-tol] is a simplification of the original name, Wera Atoll, for the sake of quicker pronunciation.
== Demographics and culture ==
The island's permanent population stands at 4 people, with several more being granted status of temporary citizenship. Culturally, Veratol is a blend between the original Kushite background of the initial settlement and the new colonists' Team Legendary roots, creating a unique and diverse new culture. Cactinism is the dominant faith, with the Cactus of Flame reaching far into the sky in the center of the town. An unknown sect built a statue of a rabbit out of smooth stone at some point prior to the island's recolonization. The island's inhabitants enjoy a policy of freedom of religious expression.
== Economy and industry ==
Veratol enjoys great wealth due to its armory established to fulfill the needs of the growing militaries aligned with Kush and due to its strategic position closer to Kush's allies in the north, such as the Kingdom of Councils and Sanctum. Apart from the value generated from the arms industry, the town also has a forge for mining tools and a burgeoning brewing industry.
