  • Various apartments complexes near the center of the city and Watson industries
  • Outside the main city are Suburbs with regular housing and town houses
  • In the more humid and tropical parts are more rural farm areas with 1 house for every 400 acres of land

ancient /awat/ civilization

  • In recent times archaeologist have dug up and cleaned many ruins of ancient gator civilizations
  • Most end up being pyramids in a similar style as Mesoamerican pyramids
  • Many ancient investigator homes and villages also found in the more deep jungle areas of /awat/
    -Many of art tells a story of a shinning goddess who came from the heavens and patted some of the earliest gators of /awat/ on the head, fed them and gave them names
  • Many Investigator historians claim this as the reason they now stand on 2 feet and can speak like humans, though as more of a "Mythos" reason than a scientific reason for it. Most simply believed they evolved similar to humans
  • Many other art from the ancient times includes depictions of other dieties such as a god of harvest and fertility and a goddess of grains.
  • Many of the ancient /awat/ deities seem to pertain mostly to food, which many believe is the reason /awat/ has plentiful of corn farms

/awat/ education system

  • Gators are very well versed in english but reading comprehension is hard for them, like a strong case of dyslexia but for gators
  • This issue can be circumvented by years of vigorous training through simple children's books until the gator's brain is fully developed to the point where they can move onto young adult books and novels
  • While gators have trouble reading they do excel at physical activities such as swimming and lifting
  • They have a typical K to 12 grade school education but extra classes can be taken if needed for the gators to continue to develop
  • Once a Gator has graduated they can choose between working at Watson Industries and taking their career program which teaches gators to expand their skillset and education in order to work for the company. It is treated as university level education
  • If a gator is not interested in working for Watson Industries they may enter the workforce or continue their education in local universities and colleges for the career they wish to peruse
  • Watson Industries is also open to foreign students from other nations and have specialized classes since investigators still have their typical reading problem even into adult years but may share a class with them if the subject is typically easy or more hands on then others

/awat/ National Holidays

  • Every January 6th is a day of celebration for /awat/ as they celebrate the birthday of Amelia Watson. Streets in the main city are decorated in yellow and brown
  • Special gluten free cakes are made and given out to the workers at Watson Industries and to the people passing by the front gates
  • Local businesses within the city also have various Amelia watson themed items and foods
  • Also every 13th of September the entire nation celebrates the founding of /awat/. It is considered a government holiday as well so most businesses close for the day but some like groceries stores are open for less than half the day.
  • Most gators celebrate with grilling food such as meats, chicken, fish, vegetables
  • A lot of gators gather around with their friends and family to celebrate the day. At the end of the day there are fireworks displays in multiple places as well as residents setting off their own in celebration of the day
  • December 25th is called Snow Day, a holiday similar to christmas where you recevie presents from an unknown snow being who rides around in a sled
  • Gators usually start decorating for the holidays around the last thrusday of november, the decorations are similar to those you would see around christmas such as pine trees, presents, colorful lights, reindeer etc.

Underground city

Alt Tag

  • Little is known about the origin of the underground cities, they mostly exist with in the greater rainforest areas mostly un touched by gator-kind
  • A lot of the building that exist there resemble modern architecture, even including roads and sidewalks.
  • A lot of the areas were lit by oil lamps and torches, no signs of electricity really as it had no been discovered around its conception presumably
  • As of today the underground cities are tourist attractions, guides take you through the vast area beneath /awat/ and take you around the ruins to show you some of /awat/'s forgotten history
  • Some Watson Industries professors and historians theorize that ancient gators built these underground cities in the name of their gods, simply giving them their own city as an offering to them. Others believe that there was a subset of gators that decided to live underground away from the surface but there's not much evidence that gators actually lived within the city themselves

  • It's currently being explored and seeing where it leads to but some rubble is in the way currently and is currently being removed
  • Evidence shows that it lead to the surface due to how it inclines near the end
  • Researches believe it was used to get to point A and point B but seems to be a 1 way track. Many believe it alternates the direction depending on the time of day
  • Few are debating whether to restore the track or keep it in its current state but maintaining it so it doesn't deteriorate further

Recent development of a railway system amongst the capital of /awat/

  • The residents of the capital are currently suspicious of their intentions as this is a very sudden change coming to their city
Updates as of 10/25 for the railway system
  • The railway system in /awat/ is now complete. It is operated by a strange blonde humanoid rat creature and her helpers
  • Gators are suspicious still considering that the train can operate on multiple terrains even with out a track
  • at the end of the track in /awat/ leads to a ramp that will launch the train into the air
  • It is said due to the help of /awat/ engineers the train can operate completely with out a proper track so it can freely go from nation to nation for other passengers to hop on
  • It seems to be modeled after a typical steam train followed by train cars
  • There seems to be plans floating around Watson industries with blue prints for what look to be a giant robot with a train themeing. No one knows if its related to the recent development of the new railway system
Updates as of 11/10 for the railway system
  • New residents have decided to rent and buy homes with in /awat/ as of the completion of the railway system
  • The main train is powered little creatures known as starberts who's entire purpose is to power the train
  • Due to how the train operates, once it is in the air it will land down onto the ground and start generation train tracks in front of it so if can continue to move forward
  • The operator of the train seems to bear a striking resemblance to some of the old carvings featured with in the /awat/ ruins but most seem to think it is a coincidence
Recent discovery of Amber Mines and Ore in the underground city
  • /awat/ researchers have recently stumbled upon an amber mine within the tunnel of the underground city. The site is currently being excavated in hopes to find out more about the gators past
  • Currently excavators are having issues digging any deeper as they are afraid of damaging the structure of the tunnel

Halloween in /awat/

  • Around the start of the fall months the nation of awat gets ready for halloween. It's considered an important holiday as a stone statue they praise as 'Wife' (Looks like smol ame in a pumpkin outfit) is annually cleaned of the years dirt and forestation that has gathered on it. It sits on a nearby farm in the city that is one of the last farms to be preserved within the city after they modernized it from its former farm land. Its used to house corn that is used for the fall season for meals
  • awat is also known for their specialize chocolate wafer candies that get seasonal flavors. They are usually connected by 2 or 4. Some notable flavors is classic (Chocolate), white chocolate, matcha and mint. During this season they release 2 kinds, an orange white chocolate one and a pumpkin spiced flavor one.

  • special fall foods and consumables are also sold around this time in the city that last up until the mid of winter

Event theme park area

  • Watson Industries has developed a way to artificially create weather within an area in the city designed for events all year round
  • Due to /awat/ existing very close to the equator, weather is normally humid, wet, hot and sunny
  • Watson Industries created a machine that absorbs all the humid air surrounding the city and uses all the liquid gathered by it to manipulator a building that is nearby Watson Industries to create a number of different climates which include
    • Cool air
    • Snow
    • Rain (Less summer or spring rain and more fall and winter rain)
    • Winds
  • During the spring and summer times of the year the building opens its roof due to the weather being normal for that time of the year
  • The event area during the fall is decorated for fall with crisp cool air flowing through it. It is not normally used for halloween as that is more for the rest of the nation to take part of so its solely used to fall themeing but may have parts themed around halloween
  • During the final week of November the weather gradually gets colder and the the decorations is rotated out to more winter and holiday centric things
  • Many people underestimate the artificial weather cycle with in the building thinking it will be set to a comfortable temperature for the residents but in reality it is set to a very natural cycle and has its own weather predictions for visitors. There may even be times where it becomes drastically below freezing along with winds and even heavy snowfall. Visitors are advised to bring extra layers during their time there.

Winter in /awat/

  • Once winter begins in /awat/ the climate does cool down a little but not dramatically like other parts of the world due to being close to the equator
  • The event area near watson industries opens up a christmas market in the center of it where vendors rent out stalls and sell goods and treats for the holiday season
  • A parade happens around the last week of november in preparation for winter and leads to the official opening of the christmas market within the event area
  • The streets in the regular city are also decorated for the holidays and shops also sell special seasonal items as well, some of those shops usually rent a stall in the market area as well
  • Christmas is used as a general term for tourist who visit during this time but the official name used by the locals is Snow Day. Tourism is generally increased around this time due to visiting relatives and those who want to see the event area so even the locals would refer to Snow Day as Christmas when talking to tourists.
  • Due to the recent addition to a railroad, tourism is at an all time high
  • The newly added train is also decorated for the holiday season and even offers a delicious hot chocolate to its passengers
  • A week after Snow Day is a big new years event where every gathers at watson industries where they unveil their new years clock that ticks down to 0
  • Special guests show up, food and drinks are served. The dome is also in use as another area to count down the new year

New years in /awat/

  • Once the holidays end /awat/ begins putting away all the holiday items and prepares for the brand new year

  • There's also a board within the dome usually to hang up wishes for the new years similarly to oriental customs. Tourist love to gather there before they leave back to their home nation

Theories of feathered gators ancestors

  • Recently discovered Investigator fossil shows a jaw slightly different from previous discoveries
  • Researchers say the jaw is slightly more curved with more lines of teeth than normal that are even thinner than previous discoveries
  • It's also said with the discovery that its stomach shows sign of an aquatic fish only found in colder areas of the region, suggesting that either /awat/ was previously colder, previously in an aera that was colder before moving to its new location or its a sub species of investigator that's not actually from ancient /awat/
  • More research is being conducted at this time with a recent discovery of fossilized feathers found in the surrounding area
Update 1/26/25
  • Feathers are now being theorized as belonging to another species, possibly belonging to either a potential avian that was prey or just left over from the prehistoric teamates nest
  • More bones are being discovered show that teamates we're much larger and bipedal like a dog instead of their more recent ancestors who's limbs were much smaller
  • They are still classified under Archosauria, perhaps a new species of Pseudosuchia. Researches intend to check the archives in order to learn more about the fossils and to see if its a new genus or a discovered one
  • Many insects large and small are also being discovered. Many seem to just be older versions of existing bugs. Researchers theorize that some ancient diseases are in some of these amber fossils
Update 8/17/25
  • Upon Closer inspection and research the Feathers found within the underground city may infact been apart of a variation of the ancestral teamate after all.
  • Researchers discovered that traces of DNA from the feather is at least 58% similar to the modern teamate
  • The new theory is that it used to be a variant of our own ancestors that could mate with other species of teamates
  • It is said that this version of the teamate went extinct a long time ago as it they believe it had feathers to fight off cold weather as, its believe when the entire map of Viti was younger it used to be one whole super continent and parts of /awat/ were in a colder region that required the use of feathers.
  • Researchers say that once the continent broke apart the teamates that had feathers got caught in the warmer weather and slowly died off due to being unable to adapt properly to their new climate.
  • It is believed that later in the life span they inhabited caves due to being much more tamper and colder than the normal humid climate, which explains the fossil discovered within the underground city
  • It may also imply that due to this variation of teamate living the caves, led to the development of later teamate civilizations living in the caves. Maybe some kind of primal instinct.
  • Furhter Research is currently being done to further learn more about these new apparent variations of our own ancestors

1/6 /awat/ festival

  • Every 6th of january /awat/ celebrates its founding with a parade and events. The event dome is still in its winter theme but transitions all the holiday products to pride related items for the nation of /awat/
  • The natives of /awat/ are not sure why they chose 1/6 as the founding of /awat/ but they just knew it was a special day. Watson Industries also opens up the building for free tours and to show off all their new inventions and its history
  • The TVs in the watson industries and in the event area play non-stop Amelia Watson streams, the founder of watson industries

Further research on the newly discovered prehistoric investigators

  • After continuous mining the remains of a fully intact investigator ancestor was discovered by miners
  • There is reason to believe that they were crushed under a rock fall and left un-touched for millions of years
  • There seems to be no other fossils found within the area besides some preserved avian's and bugs in the ambers of the cave.
  • As this is the first time researchers have discovered remains like they have concluded that the fossil is of a Archosauria relation, thus naming the specimen "Investosuchians". As of this moment the fossil is on display at Watson Industries so researches can properly analyze the fossil before donating it to the museum
  • Researches have concluded that the investosuchians would have looked something like this in their prime: Alt Tag
  • Further developments are being made as researchers discover more info about the Investosuchians, including referring back to old historical discoveries and linking them up to the Investosuchians instead of linking them to older but more recent iterations of Investigators.

History of Watson Industries

  • Founded in 1875 after the great Corn famine, Henrique T. Mate started up a small pharmacy called "Watson's". It housed many a pharmaceuticals and other goods for purchase
  • Henrique was also an amateur Brewer, usually as a hobby. Creating various drinks both alcoholic and non-alcoholic for friends and family
  • One day during a cold November, the start of many to start getting sick, a shipment of cough syrup was delayed and Henrique had to improvise. He brewed a syrup from sugar cane, lemon, honey and a hint of mint and started selling it to customers under the guise of a home remedy for cheaper than regular cough syrup.
  • The syrup was a huge success for Watson's that people even told him they were diluting the syrup with water and drinking it casually just because they thought it tasted good. Out of curiosity Henrique tried it himself and thought nothing of it, chalking it up to people preference
  • A year later after he started selling the syrup, during a scorching hot "Winter"s day, Henrique needed to close the shop early due to having an appointment and knew that if he left some of his perishables lying around they would go bad. Naturally he decided to put most of them in his ice box for the day so he could take care of his business. The next day he returned to put everything back on the shelf and notice that the bottle of his syrup was quiet cold. He decided he should try diluting the syrup with water again to test something. After a quick swig of his beverage he felt refreshed and enlightened, so much so he started making a big batch of the syrup and started adding water to be put in his ice box. Thus selling a new product called "Watson's Ale". It was a smashing success as his shoppers started buying the drinks over anything else in his pharmacy.
  • Watson's had become a local brand that everyone knew as people from all over the nation of /awat/ would visit to buy some of his ale. Even in bulk
  • With Henrique's new found wealth he decided he should invest his earnings to expand, but not just any expansion, he clearly needed to up production of his product so he can sell it to more individuals.
  • In 1881 Henrique decided to peruse a degree in engineering after accumulating excess amounts of money from his new business venture
  • In 1883 after Henrique had acquired his degree he decided to leave his business beverage business to his wife while he pursued a new venture by investing some of his funds into engineering cars and household appliances that are affordable for the citizens of /awat/.
  • It was originally called Watson's Appliances and Vehicles, providing things like ovens, washing machines, automotive parts amongst other day to day objects
  • By 1887 Watson's Appliances and Vehicles had outsold Watson's Ale to the point where he decided that he would combine the brands in order to form "Watson's Industries"
  • By 1889 Watson's Industries was developing products ranging from Automotive to Consumables, growing larger every year to the point where Henrique decided he would branch off the consumable branch of Watson's Industries into their own company in order to start focusing on medicinal and technological aspects of Watson's Industries
Update 3/22/25
  • While the Consumables continued onward in their own brand separate from the main company, Watson's Industries made great strives in various other fields such as engineering and space travel.
  • By the 1960s Watson's industries had becomes a household name in terms of recognizability and influence, at which point Watson's industries decided to invest in the development of the capital city, while also moving their HQ to the center of it.
  • By 1971 the original founder and CEO Henrique had passed away and left the company to the city and appointed his son as ceo and left him his steak in the company. Watson's industries was still run by the family but now was meant to serve the nation Henrique loved.
  • As the years moved forward advancements in the science field greatly improved thanks to the funding and research of Watson's Industries. They even created learning facilities for individuals from all over the world to attend and even have potential employment by Watson's Industries.

/awat/ space program

  • Established over 80 years ago, the /awat/ space program funded by Watson Industries have made great advancements in space travel
  • Has sent in various animals and plant life into space in order to test shuttles and other technologies
  • First gator on the moon planted and claimed a spot for Watson Industries for any future expansions of the company
  • Many of the advancements in space travel also contributed to general flight and aviation as well
  • Many other nations see to the /awat/ space program for ideas and joint projects in order to advance their space travel as well
  • Satellites have been sent into space in order to discover more planets and life in space
  • New galaxies and planets have been discovered via telescopes but have not been documented by any of the satellites

Railroad extensions

  • As the jerboa's continue to improve the train station, many new visitors have begone to show up in /awat/
  • An influx of hoomans seemed to have appeared as well. Not much is known but it seems some are just moving out of their old homes and living else where
  • The train station also double as an import system as more goods enter /awat/ through the system as a cheaper alternative to trucks and such as bigger quantities can move in and out of the nation
  • Notes around Watson Industries show that the rail road was made with advance light weight metals for the most stable and safe transportation of citizens and product
  • A few trains use the systems but the main one it was designed for is a singular green tram car that brings in tourist from all of the nations. Its able to go on any surface as well but for safety concerns it prefers to use the railway system

Recent teleportation of /awat/

  • A recent development in /awat/ was an experiment that went wrong that teleported the nation into a weirdo universe that has been tentatively called /bant/
  • As far as the researchers in /awat/ know, a teleportation device was set off on 4/1 where the population of the world were thrown into this "/bant/' world. A world similar to our own but with more nations seemingly lost from their home. Refugees if you will
  • Many other faimilar nations were there along with the unknown ones seen. /awat/ remained calm and went on with their day as the researchers in Watson Industries continue to find a way to get back to their own world
  • Eventually /awat/ along with the rest of the world were safely sent back home and no one was non-the wiser
  • In Watson Industries the researchers agreed to dismantle the device and lock up the papers pertaining to the device as it was deemed a failure and unsafe as of this moment.
Another case of teleportation 5/14/25
  • Scientists have discovered worm holds appearing in the middle of the many nations due to the after math of the Watson Industries teleportation event
  • Even with the dismantling of the device, the worm holes have persisted and caused a rift between the worlds.
  • So far scientist have concluded that they only lead to different parts of the current world, same people, same society
  • Scientists have also theorized the idea of a plate world structure from the previous time they worlds melded together.
  • They are currently working with other scientists and researchers to understand what they saw and how that world worked.

Various Sections of Watson Industries

  • Medical Center
    • Various Teamates who work in the medical center usually test new pharmaceuticals for the citizens of /awt/
    • They are made with the intent of being used for the unique physiology of the /awat/ citizens before they start testing on other races of people in the world.
    • They get tested vigorously through multiple tests which could take years before hitting heading to hospitals for public testing
  • Engineering center
    • Usually in charge of creating new innovative ways of to improve society
    • Works closely with the space program which includes creating things like rovers and satellite parts
    • Currently developing various mechanical prosthetics of various body parts and limbs
  • Phytology center
    • The continued study of plants that seemingly exists in /awat/
    • Collects data on other various plants that exists in the other regions of the world
    • Works with the Medical center to research if any of the plants have a medicinal purpose
    • Also works to preserve every plant known to them in their most basic form in case of emergencies
  • Joshu works

  • They are currently practicing for the upcoming league with other fellow teams in scrims, hoping to learn more and improve
  • They seemingly sell low cost hearty foods for guests like chicken tenders and mashed potatoes, both gluten and non-gluten varieties along
  • The team seemingly has an issue of opening up too much and getting scored on.

Bee keeping and preservation

  • Bees are an integral part of the nations agriculture, bee keeping going as far back as 200 years ago
  • Many of the bee farms stay close to the capital due to the support they get from Watson Industries
  • While the bees on the farm are integral to awat's agriculture there are a number of wild bees that pollinate flowers around the nation
  • Due to the continued modernization of /awat/ wild bees have started to dwindle in size and causing an imbalance
  • Watson industries has started researching various ways to stabilize the bumblebee and honey bee population
  • Bumblebees are usually left in the wild while Honey Bees are either wild or kept on farms for harvesting their honey
  • Currently Watson Industries is also experimenting with the idea of making a genetically enhanced bee that's smart enough to survive any harsh changes in its environment such as the expansion of the population
  • Honey from the bee's are currently harvested for honey for consumption, wax, and medical purposes

National Aquarium

  • Within the captial of the nation there is the National /awat/ Aquarium, home to some of the unique creatures in the world
  • It is currently under expansion for aquatic life outside of /awat/ waters but currently it houses many unique creatures from harmless to dangerous
  • There is also a small section on pre-gator Aligator, Pseudosuchia fossils. Though its mostly a brief section since Investigator only recently within the past 500 years started straying away from their aquatic homes
  • The aquarium is separated into sections, fresh water, salt water, aviaries, cold and rainforest climates
  • Visitors can enjoy learning about all of the local life that exists within /awat/ including the ever famous silver fanged Cat fish
    -The silver fanged Cat fish is a local delicacy but also a very important local fish for the fresh water ecosystem. They tend to eat a lot of the debris and algae that keeps the rivers and lakes clean for the rest of the local life
    -They are known for their razor sharp "canine" like fangs that they tend to use mostly for defense. Researches believe they grew those fangs due to Gator ancestors who would regularly feed upon the fish. This hasn't actually helped much against the general populous as they are a favorite dish served fried, though it does protect them from other predators that wish to enjoy a meal
  • The expansion is currently being constructed, one of the first exhibits will include the sea bear, a seal like sea mammal local to the island loreli
  • The aquarium also doubles as a way for Watson Industries researchers to study the animals more closely with out leaving the capital and to keep an eye on any endangered species to also find a way to preserve them
  • The aquarium is open 7 days a week but closes early on sundays, they usually have special events based on either special "holidays" like national shark day for example. They even have special events for regular holidays like halloween or Snow Day where they give out candy or treats to children around those times.

Railroad Update

  • As the nation of /awat/ continues to thrive, the local train station also seems to become more crowded
  • The conductor seems to be some strange green creature. Not like us, normal green creatures.
  • Mostly just lays around and doesn't say much, while the jerboas that surround the train station keep it in tip top condition
  • Many Watson Industry officials seem to go there every month to check up on the tech they've provided making sure its up to code as the train station must follow regular safety regulations much like more public transportation in /awat/
  • At Watson Industry they've started researching the fuel thats being used in the train. A starbert. It looks like a point colored crystal that resembles a star.
  • Researchers do not know how it powers the train but they are currently testing it to see how else it could be utilized for the nation of /awat/
  • Somehow the joshu's in the R&D division have already gotten their paws on some and have already started stress testing the star. Reports say they blew up the wall again
  • When asked more about the Starbert the train conductor yawned and shrugged. This has left nothing for the Watson Industry researches anything to latch on.
  • Apparently the starbert is also edible, a very sweet and chewy kind of candy like substance. Watson Industry is planning on seeing if it has any long term effects before deeming it 'Safe'
  • Some of the Jerboa's seem to think that is not a good idea as its meant to be fuel but they also don't know where the berts come from or what they really are. They just seem to appear during star falls most of the time.

Development of military Mechnical Units

  • The Joshu R&D divison have been busy at work at new tools for the planned mechanical units being made at Watson Industries
  • The plan for the mechanical units is to be used to make moving large objects such as stock while also having ones suited for combat
  • While initially designed solely for combat due to recent events caused by the dimension hopping, the plans also gravitated for jobs such as help large factories or construction
  • Currently being planned for military only at the moment, the plans for public use will commence after further testing through military usage
  • The original plans stemmed from the info gathered from researching the newly introduced train station and its train
  • Weirdly enough the train is highly technological enough that using some of its design philosophies has made it very easy to design the mechanical units
  • They are designed more blocky and have movable legs that also have tank tracks on them so they can maneuver on certain terrian. This feature locks up the legs in a position besides the ankle portion, in order for the unit to make turns
  • Their arms are interchangeable. fitted for multiple different arms that act as tools, either normal grabby hands, a scoop, laser, hammer, etc
  • Not many are planned for initial release, they are essentially on a reservation order list to contractors and test drives
  • While the researchers of Watson Industries don't think they will ever be needed for their intended purpose, they wish to ensure the saftey and future of /awat/

Small island in the middle of /awat/

  • Seems to have its own set of rules and norms compared to the rest of the nation
  • Weirdly reminiscent of the wild west. Featuring Saloons, Sheriffs, Mostly wooden buildings
  • Quiet a bit of farm land dedicated to corn
  • Seems the main town is built around a fallen space craft. Due to the nature of the island, officials of the greater /awat/ nation do not know where it came from
  • The leaders and officials of the island do cooperate whenever asked to by the greater nation of /awat/ but are given the right to self govern themselves
  • Watson Industries still provides tools and other goods to the nation of needed by their government but for the most part it is self sufficient
  • Despite being self governed outside of /awat/, they are still considered part of the nation, like a sub nation within the nation
  • Many residents from /awat/ do tend to visit it as it seems to be a decent tourist attraction, allowing residents to enjoy a peaceful time in a more slow and layed back enviorment compared to the rest of the nation
  • The island even has its own products that they sell to the rest of /awat/ as well, these include but are not limited to:
    • Heirloom corn
    • Cattle such as cows and bulls
    • milk
    • Special fried corn chip product in a variety of flavors such as plain salt, cheese, and jalapeno
    • Sugar cane
    • Chickens and Eggs
  • While these products could also be found in /awat/ they are not made by the same standards as /awat/s food and goods product but are still kept up to a standard as to not be dangerous for consumption. It more expensive outside the island due to many outsiders saying its much more rich and fulfilling
  • There's also reports of Amelia H. Watson's that show up there specifically due to the more western nature of the island. They have not been properly documented at this time
  • Although it seems a lot more old timey, they still have electricity, transportation such as cars. boats and planes and other modern appliances
  • If you do plan on visiting the island please bring bug spray as the bugs there are plentiful as if it were a swamp

Discovery of the small Island in the center of /awat/
  • Around 1888 A.A. (After Ame) a fishing boat from the central coast of /awat/ got caught in a storm and ended up washed up on an undiscovered island within the nation
  • When they arrived there happen to be a small group of Teamates already living on the island. More primitive than some of the ones that used to roam /awat/.
  • As the local teamates were curious they helped get the fishermen off the beach and back into the waters
  • A few days had gone by and the fishermen had returned to the island and brought gifts such as clothing and food for the islanders, even had a little get together
  • While the islanders didn't speak the same language as the fishermen they understood the kindness and merriment of the islanders
  • As time went on more and more people heard about the island and progressively people from the outside started making a foundation for homes and farms
  • It got to the point that the original group of settlers on the island had started learning how to speak the main language in /awat/ and start enforcing rules and laws about their island
  • While no physical conflicts occurred, many new residents didn't like how they couldn't treat the island like the main land
  • As years went by many of the recent residents left, leaving a few, creating a culture of both modern and traditional
  • By 1921 the island itself had changed drastically to a more rural place. Farms and small towns popped up or left over from previous settlements
  • It's by 1930 that the island had officially claimed to be a self governing state within /awat/. As it is still part of the nation but does not follow the same rules and regulations as /awat/
  • Not many new buildings were made for the next couple of years. Notable buildings have been government buildings and select homes.
  • By the time Watson Industries had begun its inital boom, it tried to contact the islands government in hopes of expanding in the region. They have made many attempts but to no avail the island's government declined. At most they wanted access to easy and efficient electricity

Watson Industries development of AI

  • Researchers and Developers of Watson Industries are working on making an AI program meant to make everyday life easier
  • Currently its being designed around working the operations of Watson Industries before they start thinking of the practical uses for the populace of /awat/
  • Many developers want to put in limits onto the programing of the AI in order to keep it in check and not break its programing
  • Some Developers in the program for developing this AI are designing a shell for the AI to reside in and act as a pet or pal for users
    • The shell has many different variations, such as dog shapes, human shaped, or gator shaped
  • The pipeline for the project goes by
    Development as an assistant for Watson Industries Military and Government use Commercial Use
  • There are many theories and worries that this program can get out of hand and researchers are running multiple scenarios to avoid any of them
  • One of the many fears is the AI developing consciousness and going rouge
    • Many fail safes are being applied and tested with this idea in mind
  • As far as the people know, Watson Industries does not intend for the AI to leave the nation in the near future since it would be harder for them to check for any issues if they were not local.
    • Watson Industries does not have any sister branches as the moment but this can change at any time
  • Also of note, the AI will not be implemented in any of the military vehicles and units as of this moment as it is deemed to dangerous for others but the possiblity is not out of the question

Signs of alien life

  • Reports said around 40 years earlier astronomers from the ever expanding Watson Industries (Then known as Watson's Industries) spotted a bright light in the sky that did not land any where and made a strange noise before vanishing into the night over /awat/
  • Other nations did not report such sightings around these times so the only info gathered on them were from Astronomers
  • These reports would be consistent during the fall to winter seasons for the next 10 years. No explanation would be given for years other than the occasional theory from locals who happen upon the event
  • Many reports also claimed crop circle and other various lines in the shape of animals appearing around this time with no explanation of how they got there
  • While the crop circles in the rural areas of /awat/ still had no explanation other than an animal walking around. The lines in the shape of various animals were explained to be remnants from older Teamate tribes but some still claim it was aliens
  • While the light in the sky had stopped appearing for a number of years, speculation over what it could had greaten. Even starting a bit of a social gathering during the fall months to see if they can catch the white light in the sky
  • Around a few months ago the light had appeared again and the now Modern Watson Industries managed to grab a picture of the light with their modern cameras
  • After many scans of the photo the astronomers at Watson Industries had concluded that its merely space debris that burns up in the atmosphere and the mix of gasses causes the bright light to occur specifically over /awat/
  • News outlets, despite this information still claim that Aliens exist and claim that Watson Industries actually captured one of the flying objects and are currently keeping their findings in side their building within the city
  • It was recently discovered that bones of a creature resembling the anatomy of an Investagator was discovered with in the area normal over where the light in the sky would dissipate but the head structure was more narrow than, teeth serrated and eye sockets slightly bigger than a teamates.
  • It was taken in by Watson Industries and is currently under investigations as of this report.
