North Satori Coast

The North coast of Satori forms a distinct Subcontinent. SLGI team gave it the transitory name **B093**.

## History

The North Coast was built in the first half of 2007. At that time, Second Life was in a growing boom. The sims forming the coastal line were not so developed as they are today (2020). At first, the Bingo Strait was just a narrow waterway on the North shores of Satori. Later, with the development of Nautilus City, which basically united Nautilus and Satori into a single megacontinent, new waterways opened. The addition of Blake Sea to East and later of Faichang to West also had an incredible effect on the area, boosting the economy.

As for 2015, land was already very expensive in the area and mostly owned by large corporations. In 2020, our survey found no piece of abandoned land. Local development reached a level not seen anywhere else. With many airports, ports and other expensive rental land, the North Satori Coast has many things to offer.

## Structure

The subcontinent is long and narrow. It consists of 44 sims. It measures only 3 sims from North to South and 21 sims from East to West.

## Geography

The altitude map reveals that the subcontinent sits on a coastal plain and extends a bit deeper inside. There is no massive altitude change between coast and inner continental plateau.

From a strict Geographic point of view, there are two points of interest: Highest elevation exists in Dammastock sim (84 m). The structure is actually a large hill that extends further North and South. Also, South from Dammastock, in Finsteraarhorn, there is a sinkhole, with average altitude of 28 m. Also, the 2020 survey found that the only parcel of abandoned land is located in the same area.

The Western sims in the area share Slavic names and are related with the Slavic Sims. However, because they are economically connected to the coast, they had been included into this continent.

### Constructions

It is enough to look on the map, to see that the area is almost entirely covered with buildings. One can find a high level of infrastructure development, including roads (connecting with the road in South), ports (on the coast), bridges, towers, airports and many other structures. There are places where there is no square meter of barren ground left.

## Land Status

Almost all land is Inhabited Land. There are only very small parcels of Abandoned Land. More then half of land is opened to visitors, but ban lines and entity orbs still exist. Protected Land exists in the form of route 8, which crosses the South of the subcontinent, sometimes going further South. Also, in East, there are a few protected waterways.

## Access

The subcontinent is linked to the North with Bingo Strait. To South, it reaches route 8, the main road of Satori. There are many private-owned roads that stretch South, reaching route 8 and connecting it with the docks and airports to the North.

There are many parcels which are friendly for visitors, but Land With Restricted Access does exist.

Both the YavaScript pods and the SLGI Fleet travel along route 8.

North Satori Coast is a frequent destination for sailors and pilots.
