History

When Rogues of Sage took control of Admiral island, an election was held to appoint the new governor. After several discussions on applicants, Ptolemy was appointed governor [1]. During his administration the following buildings were dusted in order to address the overbuilding of the island:

During the Passive Aggression administration, the shipyard Frigates of the Caribbean was dusted and replaced with Frigates of the Caribbean II (which was later renamed Anchorman). This was done to improve the island's building set up since the first shipyard was located near the beach [2].

After several more blockades, Admiral Island was finally seized by the flag Illium Eternae who has had the island since they won it in October 2010.

Following a brown path to the north, an inscription on a log can be found saying "This island were fashioned by Waterbug."
