Background:
|
The so-called People's Movement of Sacco & Vanzetti is not a
country as such but an eclectic residue of citizens who were regarded
as unsavoury in their original, mainly European, homelands and former
slaves.There is no shred of evidence of the existence of a bona
fide government on any of the locations associated with this "organisation".. |
|
Location:
|
The Continent of Aperin, southern ocean, the Continent of tACA,
and a number of settlements throughout both. Although the islands
are set apart, many hundreds of miles from other land, southwestern
Aperin is infamous for political apathy mainly caused by what appears
to be the lack of true leadership. |
