The Island Country Of Genetica

 

Genetica sits about 50 miles off the coast of Naturia. The climate is pleasant, temperatures are moderated by warm ocean currents. The dormant volcano on the north side of the island provides beautiful vistas, with forested areas. But the hillside slopes do not allow for agriculture.

The rest of the island is ringed with sandy soil, poor in nutrients. While chaparral type vegetation grows well, the island’s farmers have had little success with crops like corn. They are nutrient poor and the island’s insects seem to love the stuff.  A recent discovery of small, off shore oil fields has provided the island with some potentially prosperous trading resources.
