Where in the world is San Serriffe?
A tropical paradise. Home to the kwote bird. A melting pot of foreign cultures (Europeans, Creoles, Malaysians, Arabs, and Chinese) blending seamlessly with the inhabitants of the islands, the Flongs.
San Serriffe is an archipelago in the Indian Ocean, somewhere close to the Seychelles Islands. There are two main islands: Upper Caisse and Lower Caisse. The nation was first featured in 1977 by The Guardian, a British newspaper, which is quite fitting because the island nation resembles a semi-colon. In that year, San Serriffe was celebrating its 10th year anniversary, and was inviting investors and visitors from the UK.
The main exports of the island nation are steel, phosphate, and oil, with tourism contributing also to the economy. And the plus side is that there is no risk of being kidnapped because terrorism is said to be eliminated in the islands. Pristine beaches and air-conditioned hotels dot the coastline while modern highways make travel across the islands a breeze.
Going there may prove to be a challenge, however. Due to the rapid erosion of sand on the western coasts of the islands, and its accumulation on the eastern coasts, San Serriffe is moving at a rapid rate across the water. It is estimated to collide with Sri Lanka in 2011 if nothing is done to slow down the movement.
With the summer at hand, this place must be a great holiday destination.
