Isle of Boatmen

The Isle of Boatmen is a sovereign nation on Rathnir. It has not much history, but a very active leader and playerbase.

History
At first, the Boatmen were nomads, led by a man who they called the High Boatman. However, one day they got tired of the nomadic lifestyle, and they began looking for a place to settle. They found a small island, inhabited by a few natives. The native culture and the Boatmen culture merged, and the natives told the Boatmen of their religion. They declared the nation independent the next day, as the Isle of Boatmen.

Government and Politics
The Isle of Boatmen is ruled by an Arch-Minister and a High Pope. The Arch-Minister is elected every 2 months, and the High Pope is elected by the Boatpagan Church for life unless impeached. The main struggle of the Boatmen is electing a new Arch-Minister. THe Boatmen only allow one religion, Boatpaganism. This has caused some mild protest.
