Welcome to the FUTURE!!
A Country of Great Fertility
Life was becoming very different for all the people who lived in this place. It is probably rich in mineral TREASURES. No famine has been heard of in this wealthy land. The lakes are fresh and plentiful with food. But hurry! The country is fast filling up.
