Sacco & Vanzetti are twin islands, currently with a combined population of nearly two billion.

The 200-year known history of Sacco and Vanzetti includes long periods of colonial occupation and withdrawal, as well as attempts at corporate control, focused around plantations (tobacco - failed), mining (uranium - failed) and manufacturing (automobiles - failed).

During periods of external control much of the food for the peoples of the islands came from the sea, which was one of the key sources for the indigenous population even before the first Spanish colonists.

Sustainable fishing techniques and grounds have been developed alongside those of The Weegies, Free Outer Eugenia and Watfordshire.

The islands have been held by the Spanish, the English, the French (briefly) and the Americans. The populace has been self-governing since the end of a bloody 15-year war of attrition against corporate control by motor giants the multi-national General Fjord company.

After the final withdrawal of the corporations, 18 years ago, the islands were dogged by pockets of control by warlords, which took two years to eradicate.

Although essentially anarchist in spirit for many decades, the understanding of the last pieces of the jigsaw of delegated control from the people downwards came from revolutionaries within Free Outer Eugenia.

Much of the partying expertise comes from natural inclination and the close influence of the peoples of Watfordshire.

The islands enjoy a diverse racial and cultural mix, mainly due to the number of settlements over the centuries by different colonists who brought their own "under-classes" as either bonded or wage-bonded servants. When not partying or working (Sacco and Vanzettians usually have two regular areas of work, one of which is manual) they generally enjoy pondering pure mathematics as a pastime, which is probably why chess is played throughout the islands.

Classified by the United Nations as "Civil Rights Lovefest" the lush ancient forests are a particular draw for tourists - and to those who bring their minds as well as their cameras, the style of government (or non-government) is intriguing.
