View source for Cerulean Ocean

'''Cerulean Ocean''' is one of three [[ocean]]s released on January 31, 2012. The ocean is a [[subscription]] ocean created through the merger of the [[Midnight Ocean|Midnight]] and [[Cobalt Ocean|Cobalt]] Oceans, and open testing lasted from January 4 to January 9, 2012.{{fn|1=http://forums.puzzlepirates.com/community/mvnforum/viewthread?thread=177049#2435789}}

The [[ocean merge|mergers]] of the English-language oceans were hinted at on December 7, 2011, when the "Intrepid Explorer" Velasco Thorsson [http://forums.puzzlepirates.com/community/mvnforum/viewthread?thread=177010 posted his journals] on the Hear Ye! Announcements forum. The mergers were subsequently announced the next day by Hermes. On the same day, voting on the new oceans' names opened to the general public, who voted on the name "[[Meridian Ocean|Meridian]]" for the [[Viridian Ocean|Viridian]]/[[Malachite Ocean|Malachite]] merger, "[[Emerald Ocean|Emerald]]" for the [[Sage Ocean|Sage]]/[[Hunter Ocean|Hunter]] merger, and "Cerulean" for the new subscription ocean.

== Oceanography ==

Cerulean has one hundred and thirteen islands divided among eleven [[archipelago]]s.  There are sixty-seven colonized islands. The area that comprises the former Cobalt Ocean has the same geography as the former [[Viridian Ocean]] and the late [[Crimson Ocean]].
