In 2361, almost every young student on earth that isn’t already there dreams of being accepted to study at the University of Archivillia (pronounced ark-uh-vill-ee-uh) on Archive Island. Earth is ruled by the militaristic United World Government (UWG), which, was created through a motion at the United Nations. It was apparent that democratic governments had no chance of implementing the drastic changes necessary to reduce worldwide consumption. Archive Island is now the only place on earth where you can speak freely, create art, own a car, and hear the voices of a society that flourished long ago.
For those interested, there has been one episode of Archive Island created as a radio drama. It's heard by several hundred people each month, even though it isn't advertised anywhere. Click the link below if you would like to hear it.
