Brethren of the Coast (Viridian)

Brethren of the Coast is a crew that sails the Viridian Ocean. It is formerly known as The Insomniacs or Culo Hunters.

History of Bretheren of the Coast
The crew was originally founded on May 15, 2005 under the name Culo Hunters and is one of the oldest and most continually active crews on the Viridian Ocean. The crew was asked to change their name by the Ocean Masters and was soon changed by the founding captain Oneeyejoe to Dinero por Sangre.

The crew's name was changed again under former captain Navalpride to The Insomniacs.

On December 6th, 2005, the The Insomniacs switched to oligarchic for the first time, allowing all senior officers to have a direct say in decisions through a game-moderated voting process. The change of government from autocratic to oligarchic marked the growth of the crew and the maturity of its members.

On May 13, 2006, the crew's name was changed to Brethren of the Coast to better reflect their philosophy of friendship and teamwork. The Brethren of the Coast was the name that Caribbean buccaneers called themselves in the 1640-1680 period. During this time, they actually formed a sort of fraternity, and did not usually fight each other or even steal from each other.
