Etánban

Etánban is a fictional place. It is a small, isolated island nation located in the southern hemisphere of a largely unexplored ocean. Its geography is characterized by volcanic mountains, dense rainforests, and a rugged coastline with few natural harbors. The climate is tropical, with high humidity and distinct wet and dry seasons.

The population of Etánban is comprised of a few thousand inhabitants, who are descendants of indigenous peoples and early European explorers. They maintain a subsistence economy, relying on fishing, small-scale agriculture, and the harvesting of unique island flora. Their culture is rich in oral traditions, with a strong connection to the natural environment.

Etánban has no formal government in the traditional sense. Instead, a council of elders, representing the various communities, makes decisions through consensus. There is limited contact with the outside world, with infrequent supply ships being the primary link to global trade. The island is largely self-sufficient, and its inhabitants value their independence and traditional way of life. Development is minimal, with no significant infrastructure beyond basic dwellings and footpaths. The natural beauty and unique ecosystem of Etánban are considered its most valuable assets by its people.
