Atolia Island

Overview
Atolia Island is a small hamlet off the coast of Wahat Almarjan and the continent of Prospit. The town was founded by PixelPaladin96 on the night of July 15th, 2021. It has experienced slow but steady growth over the few weeks since it's establishment; a quaint and pretty town having covered the island completely. It is a very small island, just a little bigger than 130 x 130. Due to this limitation of space a lot of their buildings take advantage of height and underground portions to get the most use out of their limited land space. The best example of this would be the Tower of Atolia

Tower of Atolia
The Tower of Atolia, located on the southernmost part of the island, is a building that spans well over one hundred blocks in height, with a build design allowing for additional floors to be constructed onto the tower when needed. The building style of the island is mainly stone brick and spruce wood, although they have started using a fair amount of wool as well. They have a small general store on the island and welcome anyone who wants to browse.

As of August 14th 2021, Atolia has joined the Arcadian Altanate. They had very close relations with them and just finished a large construction project between them, and had a council vote the same evening. 4 in favor of joining, 0 against. They operate as a semi-autonomous town within the nation, although a document still needs to be created.

Residents and Government
The town currently has four residents: PixelPaladin96, Zilla420, Randomnoob63, and TheArckaneMage. PixelPaladin96 is the founder and the main diplomat of the island. He doesn't give orders or control much anything on the island, and everyone is free to do what they wish as long as they abide by the ideals of Atolia. Zilla and Randomnoob tend to be excellent miners and resource gatherers, while Pixel and TheArckaneMage are the main architects of the island. Their government consists of every member of Atolia in the form of a council. For important issues everyone convenes together, and everyone has an opportunity to have their voice heard. Currently, a majority vote is needed to proceed with a decision. Pixel does not gain any additional voting power as the founder of Atolia, and everyone's voice is heard equally.

They are pacifists by nature, and it would take a lot to get them to join a war that isn't a defensive one. They currently have a defensive and religious treaty with the Arcadian Altanate, leading to closer ties between the two towns along with an infrastructure project to connect the two towns.

Religion
Their religion has ties to the sun and the moon, but also holding religious significance for all Atolians. They commonly believe the sun/day is a time for growth, exploration, and harvest. The moon/night is a time of rejuvenation, contemplation, and rest. During the day it's common to see Atolians out and about in Alathra or on the island itself. At night most tend to stay inside working on more sheltered projects, or sleeping in a bed. The belief of karma is also an important part of their religion, commonly influencing a lot of their choices. They follow a belief that if you do good, good things happen. And if you do bad things, bad things happen. So they tend to be very friendly and kind to anyone who stumbles across their small hamlet.

Due to their good relations with the Arcadian Altanate and general curiousity they have learned much about the holy Mufijo faith, and have found that it has many similarities with their own. Pixel is still working on a complete scripture of their own faith, but it will likely have influence from their nearby allies.

Economy
Atolia has a rather small economy with their main exports being sugar cane, gun powder, and white wool. They have a few large trading partners currently (Such as the towns of Haven, Mineopolis, and Wahat Almarjan) but they also have a general store on the island, and welcome anyone who wishes to browse or trade. While they might not generate that much revenue currently, they are hard at work expanding their farms to a near industrial level as well as diversifying into different things like mob drops and logs among other things.
