## Laws and Regulations

The law of the waters is always dictated by they who have the most wealth which at this time is Voxal Jones. Vox for short, runs these waters with low priority towards societal development and more towards the acquisition of wealth, resources and for himself, knowledge.

**Thou shall not steal from the elderly or the young, otherwise all is fair game.**

***All people of all ages are considered to be apart of the armed forces already, all citizens aren't just merely allowed to be armed and trained. They are expected to be!***

**Your thievery should always prioritze outsiders and other lands, thief from fellow Attollites only if needed.**

***You may hoard all the wealth you so desire, but never hoard food, wood or weapons. Less have a cannonball tied to your feet and flung into the bay.***

**Punishment for near all other crimes is anywhere between 20 - 100 lashings. Age need not apply as any exception.**

***Loyalty to the Atoll is not requested, it is demanded. If you show you are not loyal to these waters that birthed you then you shall be shot.***

**Otherwise stating all is free, and to those who attempt to deny Atollites their freedom shall see the Atoll rise up.**

## Livelihood

### demography

The Atoll is a land of extreme diversity, there hardly even seems to be a 'majority' per say in these lands. Though a Human currently leads it, and numerous high ranking individuals are of Elvin or Dragonoid blood.

Those brave enough to visit these waters have come back surprised by how diverse and open the country truly is at times.

### Borders and 'Immigration'

To the north are the waters of Polikeanos and further up the Crescent continent is the southern fields of Camelot but aside the guards those other nations put at these borders they are open. L'Atoll does not care of who comes and or goes, meaning immigration or emigration is as easy as just going.

Although Vox knows they will always comeback, for foreign lands don't like Atollites. As for those who come to these lands, they can find themselves soon stuck and forced to assimilate and adapt. All the better for L'Atoll the leaders feel.

### Occupations

Near all of Atollites find themselves fulfilling roles other kingdoms shy away from such as.

**Black Market** - Commonly referred to as the market of Dunes, this infamous market sales just about anything and everything. For a price of course

**Mercenaries** - Atollites spend all their lives fighting and clawing out a living and because of this. They don't ask questions when handed off putting work, this attracts many foreign Dignitaries to hire them when hush work is needed.

**Hitmen & Assassins** - Some of the truly skilled Atollites find themselves becoming hitmen and assassins for foreign dignitaries.

**Atoll's Fleet** - The most feared navy on the high seas, Vox hires some of the most skilled of sailors in his waters to ride the seas for loot and glory. As well to keep foreign powers too scared of attempting any invasion to end L'Atolls days of pirating.

## Politics

### Domestic

Domestic policies and politics are practically none existent in L'Atoll as Vox rarely cares what the people see fit to do outside of basic guidelines.

Guards are advised to protect the old and the young only, and anyone who causes a woman to conceive is to either raise that child or face 18 years hard labor so the nation can help the woman pay for the child's uprising off of the father's hard work. Vox does no like deadbeats, rapists and has a "No child unattended to!" policy for the nation. But once they are 18, they are on their own and have little in their way of what they can or can't do outside of rape or harming the young or elderly. This has been a time honored tradition of the Atoll for 100's of years before Vox was even in power.

### Foreign

Riavuilte: Atollites have no care nor consideration for this faraway land of anarchy.

Polikeanos: L'Atoll and Polikeanos have come near to war more times then the other lands like, as it threatens to destabilize all trade and fishing routes if it were to happen. The rich trade of Polikeanos attracts the thieves of L'Atoll while Vox and prior rulers have held the risk of destabilizing all trade over the Triton family's head to keep the war from happening.

Nepvita: The waters of Nepvita are viewed as dangerous by the people, while Vox is neutral to Nepvita. So long as the Nepvitites don't tread on his waters he could care less.

Camelot: It is known that Camelot is why L'Atoll has even become slightly organized at all, as Camelot once nearly conquered them several hundreds of years ago in attempt to end the Pirating. It is not certain if the Camillian and Atollite people are against having war once again.

## History

In ancient times only nomads existed in this otherwise unforgiving land but as sailing became popular the Atollites began to build into the coves and Atolls around them ( hence their name ) and for a short time became prominent in the trade of pearls and seafood.

But when Polikeanos came to prominence with higher quality sea products, the Atollite people fell to extreme poverty and soon Anarchy. Until a man known simply as Umbriel rose to power as the first "Pirate King" and set out to raid Polikeanos for resources. Ever since the Atollites have taken to blaming the Triton family for their troubles and feel their thievery is both justified and their only means of survival. This has of course caused numerous wars and many skirmishes over the years as historians are unsure how long L'Atoll can stably remain the way that it is.
