FairChang Subcontinent

Fairchang is a Subcontinent located North-West from Satori. SLGI team gave it the transitory name **B106**.

## History

Following the great success of private-public partnerships like Blake Sea and Turara Fiji Subcontinent, the owner of Fairchang Continent decided to move close to a Linden-owned continent. The location chosen, West from Satori and with close contact to Nautilus, is very good. However, FairChang did not grow as much as the other projects did. As a direct result, the Fairchang continent vanished from the grid and a new subcontinent emerged. This occured in 2018. In response, the Linden officials added a few water sims to boost navigation in the area. These sims are part of West Satori Coast.

At the time of the altitude survey (2018), the subcontinent consisted of 28 sims. As of June 2020, it consists of 31 sims, but small changes can be seen. As of June 2023, the subcontinent had 39 sims.

## Structure

The subcontinent is dynamic. It has an irregular shape, that looks like a tilted crescent.

It has 39 sims, but can change. It has two connections with Satori. The subcontinent is very close to Nautilus, but unconnected. There is a small gap of two void sims in South. These sims belong to the Void Ocean, just like similar sims in Sansara Void or Moonbase Gulf - Jeogeot.

## Geography

The subcontinent consists of many small islands separated by waterways. The islands, in most cases, have rectangular shapes. There are many waterways encircling the islands, which can be used by any boat. Anyone can rezz a boat on any waterway.

The altitude map reveals that there are no highlands. Indeed, except for a few small peaks (reaching 5 m high), most dryland less then 1 m high. Islands are covered with white sand and are very close to sea level and highly exposed in case of global warming. Sometimes, there are buildings (like docks) close to the islands.

Water channels account for half of the surface. They are usually 10 m deep and have a smooth surface, without obstacles for boats. They are opened for sailing and flying, for residents who live in the area and for residents coming from outside. Sometimes, they have coral reef texture. No vegetation, fish, shipwrecks or any other objects exist in the channels.

A different place is FairChang Coral, a sim almost entirely made of dryland. This sim is a park. It has low elevation and ground texture is green. It strongly contrasts with the rest of the subcontinent.

## Land Status

FairChang is a private-owned subcontinent, owned by a single estate. The channels between islands are private Protected Land, opened for anyone and can be used as a rezz zone. The park in FairChang Coral is also opened for public.

All islands are parcels of Land For Rent Or Sale to individual owners. These parcels are designed for residential use.

## Access

One can reach FairChang by sailing or flying along the Bingo Strait. Teleporting here is also an option. Anyone can rezz boats on the channels.

There is an airplane in FairChang Esenada sim.

There are docks in FairChang Office, which is also a place to get information about land in the area.

The YavaScript pods and the SLGI Fleet have border contact with the subcontinent.
