Sea Spray Islands

The flag of the Sea Spray Islands.

The **Sea Spray Islands** (**SSI**) are a sovereign state located in the Potato Ocean. It's founder and current head of state is McTwoPoint0. It was, from it's independence on 11 February 2023, to it's withdrawal on 9 May the same year, a constituent part of the Potato Empire.

In September of 2023, McTwoPoint0 announced that he was thinking of "auctioning off" the island nation.

## Etymology

The name "Sea Spray Islands" is derived from the worlds "sea spray". Sea spray are aerosol particles formed from the ocean, mostly by ejection into Earth's atmosphere by bursting bubbles at the air-sea interface. The islands were almost named the "Marshall Islands" in reference to an existing country in real life, in a similar manner to Thailand.

## History

### Early history

The Sea Spray Islands were founded on the 11th of February 2023, a few days after McTwoPoint0 joined the server. The islands began to quickly progress, starting Covenant Engineering and building ships for use by navies worldwide.

## Government

The SSI is a monarchy with a king, currently McTwoPoint0, as head of state. As a member of the Potato Empire, the king of the Sea Spray Islands is one of the three Potato Monarchs.

### Defence

The Sea Spray Islands only has a small self defense force: the Sea Spray Islands Militia. It is made up of normal citizens who will be called to fight only if The Islands are attacked. Otherwise the Islands rely primrarily on the Potato Military; particularly the Greater Potato Navy, which has a strong presence in the Sea Spray Islands due to Covenant Engineering (the navy's primrary ship manufacturer) being located in Sea Spray City.

## Geography

The Sea Spray Islands are located within the Big Blue Triangle. All the individual Islands have names. They are (from south to north) the Greater Sea Spray Island, Turtle Island, Goji Island, Isle of DOOM, The Lost Island, Coral island, Bird Island, and Stella Isle. It is expected that more names will be added to the roster as The Sea Spray Islands expand.

## Culture

### Symbols

Potatoes are the national food of the Sea Spray Islands, alongside every other country within the Potato Empire.

Lime green is the national colour for the Sea Spray Islands.

The national animal for the Sea Spray Islands is the Sea Turtle.

The national block for the Sea Spray Islands are Granite and Andestite.

### Traditions

Whenever a new person arrives in The Sea Spray Islands, whether visitors or future citizens, have to put a sign saying PERSON'S NAME was here on the *I Was Here* board located next to McTwoPoint0's house. Not everyone has done this, however; for example, JVTA is yet to do so.

## Industry

Sea Spray Islands are home to Covenant Engineering, a boat manufacturer for the Potato Empire. Potato Industries have offices in Sea Spray City.

## Foreign relations

SSI has great relations with most nations except Name Pending. This was due to King McTwoPoint0 taking the side of TheAllSeeingBird during the Potato Plains Dispute. Relations further stagnated from there until MikeCube, the king of Name Pending, left the server on March 16th, 2023, which caused the dissolution of Name Pending's government.
