Most of the lizard population migrated to the region of Athelstan after political persecution from a crumbling empire. Most were long time slaves until they decided to revolt on the government. This resulted in most of the population being massacred, but many find ways to escape. Even some of the bourgeois population came with them, trying to escape a life of restricted opportunities. Due to their apocalyptic turn of events, most of the population moved passed prejudices or forgave resentment and worked together to make life anew in the Athelstan region, though not all. The region they discovered was named Athelstan because of the name of the leader who led them to the direction by a hunch and some geographical skills.
Despite setbacks, the population worked together to restore natural order according to their needs and demand for survival. This started out without currency, trying to simply find ways to eat and build homes. Eventually, the region grew to urban standards. Some grew accustomed to their way of life at the old empire, while others took advantage of a new culture and found ways to cultivate new ideas and jobs. This led to the need for some to run the region through politics and the currency of the canadian soon came to substitute local trade.
Some of the population stood firm on their religious and spiritual believes, while others saw a new way of life as an opportunity to also change other customs such as religion. Due to the variety of culture and attitudes, and after a cruel war, the population naturally came into agreement towards political freedom and civil rights. However this is not a utopian environment. People still struggle with some civil rights and some are still wounded by their past, making social welfare an important matter but there are lack of funds because they go elsewhere. Some of these funds go towards education. Education acts as a social service by providing the population with a well-rounded education based on knowledge and practice as well as extra-curricular activities. This hopes to create jobs in the future.
Sometimes there are many protests because of the uranium mining industry and because of a huge dependency on cars ran by oil. Another issue is military spending which some believe the government should have due to their need for protection from outside forces. However the majority disagreed with military spending, believing this would bring peace so there are no funds in this area. Athelstan moved to 1000 islands hoping to have protection, bond with others and be part of a bigger debate. Much of the population travel to other destinations to carry out services they give at home.
