History
Before the establishment of Bunkurs 13, the area of the Southern Island was mostly unsettled and underdeveloped, with only a single town (named Arkaley) being the earliest evidence of settlement in the region. The island, despite being right next to Nevadia (then the USA) remained uninhabited for a long time (after the inactivity of Arkaley) until the arrival of its settler, St4n7ey.

Development
The arrival of St4n7ey from the far South to New Vegas and his acceptance by UsaZach was the main catalyst for the founding of Bunkurs 13. From then on, colonization and development of the island commenced, with the first buildings being a restaurant, a pagoda, and two castles. During the construction of the first castle, Castle Floppa, the entire former villager town was removed and the surrounding Jungle trees cut down by a now-defunct neighboring town named Torrin. Tenriism started to take form during this time too, originally having only a single deity, Big Chungus, but as time went on its doctrine started to evolve, as with its pantheon of Gods and Saints.

Geography
Bunkurs 13 is situated in the Southern Island, south of New Vegas and divided by a river.

Climate
Bunkurs 13 has a cool, humid jungle climate owing to its proximity to the southern Jungles. It experiences only two seasons; the monsoon season, and the dry season. Its climate is directly influenced by winds coming from the Southeast.

Resources and Economy
The town has almost no natural resources. It is highly dependent on nether mining (specifically netherite mining, from which it gives all its supply to New Vegas), gold mining in the nearby Mesa biomes, and trade.

Religion
The religion of Bunkurs 13 is Tenriism, also known as Floppism or Chunguism, although it will be described as "Bunkurs Tenriism" in this page for distinction between Tenriist sects and doctrines.

A relatively recent, polytheistic religion, it revolves around the belief in various gods and nature spirits, the most popular ones being "Floppa" and "Big Chungus", and encompass a number of rituals, esoteric philosophies, and "sacred mysteries". It relies heavily on esoteric ritual and religious chronicles, most of which is known to have been codified in several chapters of books and written texts, although most remain hidden to the public view.

The origin of Bunkurs Tenriism are hidden in obscurity. Some believe that it simply first arose from the founding of Bunkurs 13, while others argue that its roots lay far beyond Prospit. Some claim of Tenriism having roots in obscure, extinguished Far Northern cults such as "Stixist Estoeriikan", or widespread Noob animist beliefs, with their worship of Big Floppa and Chungus, both animal beings. The official position of Bunkurs Tenriism however, is that Tenriism was "brought to the world through the first player" and claims to be the "Actual True and Legit Religion Ever", before being outnumbered by new religions in a process called "Gyyan" (decievement; fooling in Bunkurs speech). As such, followers of Tenriism usually talk of other religions as "paganism" to outright "falsehood".

A very syncretic religion, it is known to have absorbed several foreign deities into its pantheon as gods, the most notable and famous one being Amogus, the patron god of New Vegas. Various spaces were used in rituals by Tenriists, such as underground pools (described as bathtubs), although temples are becoming more frequently used for worship purposes.

The religion is represented in the USNA by the Southern Floppists party.
