Taken in 1982 after a short conflict in the South Atlantic, the group of islands known as the Palland Islands are now under the protectorate control of the United Island Empires. Over half of the currant population of 5,400 are military personnel, the remaining almost entirely working in someway connected to the four oil rigs that have been build over the last twenty years. These have been built to take advantage of the regions vast oil supplies. The high number of troops in the territory is because of the high risk of invasion from neighbouring nations. The Port of Buggle is a large shipping port, used to export oil from the territory, to bring needed goods in and is used as stop off point for ships travelling from Africa to South America or vice versa.
In 1987 a revolutionary called Thomas de Falio tried to form his own nation in the local area of the Palland Islands.
