History
The name "Beta," like all of the Midnight Ocean's capital islands, comes from a Greek letter: Beta (Β β).

The Beta Island monument is located directly northwest of the palace.

Beta was colonized in October 2004 by Water Sleeps under the leadership of Queen Kestrel. The blockade was contested by Allied Foundation, and spanned October 9 and 10.

The main phase of building construction finished in January 2005. Water Sleeps celebrated this by throwing the One Million Poe Beta Blast party in February 2005, giving away a full one million poe in cash and prizes (including the deed to a weavery shoppe, which is now Mouse on the Loom).
