Formation of the Celestial Isles

[Chairman Ryan]

With the transfer of territory between Stormark, Universalis, and Interland, we have acquired the islands formerly associated with Kejsarinna Asa Land and, even further back in time, with Lavalon. The newest map of our restored territory is displayed below for reference.



The four islands off the southern coast will henceforth be known as The Celestial Isles. They are to be named after famous astronomers of history: Copernicus, Galilei, Huygens, and Halley.

In addition to the renaming of these islands, they will form a new administrative division of Universalis and be governed independently as the Celestial Isles. They will occupy the seat formerly held by New Montauk, which has since been transferred to Interland's control.

This zoom map shows the individual islands and their respective names, along with the major cities present. St. George is the regional capital, and Scodland-Tresport is an industrial shipping center with a small population. The St. George Observatory is also located on the island. Our second observatory (the first being Asmiov Memorial Observatory in Aristarchus).




A new flag has also been created for the island territory, with the four stars representing the four islands and their relative size to one-another. Halley, being the smallest and uninhabitable island, received the smallest star. The background is a dark purple representative of the Antarctic night sky as opposed to the black background of the national flag which is intended to represent space and/or a dark night sky.
