History
Cleopatra's Pearls was originally located on the Midnight Ocean. The island is named after the legend of Cleopatra VII of Egypt's pearl earrings. The island takes the shape of a pearl earring.
Cleo I - 2004-10-23, Boochin Katfish defeated Skulls and Sticks in ten rounds to win the island for colonization.

Cleo V - 2006-8-13, Silver Dawn defeated Notorious Fandango to take control of the island. Heartless Shadows had expressed its intention to merge into Silver Dawn, taking the island with it.

Cleo VI - 2007-3-10, Silver Dawn successfully defended the island in four rounds against Incredible.
