  1. Bounty: A Tropical Story

    February 2066 As a reaction to the spreading poverty on bounty island, the catholic church has formed a congregation of street nuns and monks, mainly serving the poor and homeless. A church, L'Església dels Pobres, was constructed at Antonia del Toro Island, where poverty is at its worst. The leader of “Congregación Pobre” is just 23-year-old nun, Nerea Kowalski. Kowalski was born at Bounty Island, daughter of a mixed German/Spanish immigrant family.

As far as we know, no such metals have been discovered. But people and heading for Bounty from all over the old world. This story is about some families descending of the original Spanish inhabitants and a few of the people and families coming to the Islands in the early waves at the end of the 19th century. Other people may appear along the way, I don’t know how many I will follow. Well aware that investments were needed “THE KING” transferred some reasonable funds to the Governor, most of it was spend on a ridiculous oversized mansion to host the Governor family and his private guards, but some was at least used to upscale the main islands infrastructure. Rubén Ruiz One of the lucky townsmen to get a job at the new Rum Distillery was 35 years old Rubén Ruiz, he was from one of the old farmer family’s but he preferred working in the Rum industry to the sugar plantation. His wages were more than doubly. Rubén was married to Dolores with three children, but all old enough to support themselves. People at Bounty Islands get their children at a young age, in fact Rubén already had a grandchild, 1 year old David Sánchez, son of daughter Ane.

Just a few days ago Mariano was offered a job at Jørgen Jensen Sheep in Mountain Village. The job providing a salary increase to 62,3 pieces per hour.

    September 2065 - Loyal to Familia Crime Reporter Nerea De Jong from TV1 City, have created a broadcast about the criminal underworld. With focus on the Loyal to Familia organization: “The Family” "Loyal to Familia first came to light in the late 1980’s, at the time led by Mr. Walsh. Mr. Walsh was accused and convicted for drug trade. Although it was never proven in court, it is clear that Mr. Walsh controlled the Shipyard, the Diver’s Club and the night club Babilonia, all located in the Bounty Bay area of Harbor District in what is today Ruíz City. After his release in the early 1990’s, a gangster war started. Mr. Walsh disappeared and was later found dead. The organization was now in the hands of “The Old Lady” aka Louise Roux and her family. Louise Roux died in 1999. The same year most of the family was killed by police officers. Her daughter OneShot Beatriz was in Florida, at the time. Italian born, Chiara Schumacher , took control of the organization. Although she may have been a puppet of Beatriz. Under Chiara’s leadership, Loyal to Familia infiltrated the hippie communities in North District. Drugs, prostitution and handling of stolen goods, now flourished in the “free villages”. OneShot Beatriz came back and took control in 2009. In 2019, She was found dead in Rotterdam, inside a refrigerated container." OneShot Beatriz ruled “The Family” from Bounty City Motel, but is there still criminals there? "Beatriz’s lieutenant Andreas Schulz took over, until his arrest in January 2021. Since then, the structure and leadership of Loyal to Familia have been unclear. In 2035 special agent Valeria Martin found a shipment of cocaine in Freaks Village. Police stormed the village and burned it to the ground. Several high ranked members of Loyal to Familia was arrested, including brothers Max and Daan Van Beek, whom may have been the leading family at that point. Valeria Martin would later be promoted to Head of the Presidential Legal Department, she is also known for her expensive anti-seismic bunker. In the following years “Loyal to Familia” was weakened and other gangs appeared, especially at Cepero Islands and D’Angelo Island. In the late 2040’s a war broke out between the gangs. Resulting in the formation of a military task force to fight organized crime and protect the public. Things calmed down, arguably do to Loyal to Familia's ability to absorb the other gangs. But the violence did not stop. In 2052 High ranked Loyal to Familia member, Kaamran Ahmed, died in a shot-out with the police, during an arrest attempt. In 2055, Red Eye Jesse, of the organization’s Cattle Road branch, was assassinated. Allegedly, in an internal struggle within the organization. Since then, things have been relatively silent. TV1 City’s “Night Streets” will continue the investigations, in the coming episodes." Club Babilonia, a known hideout for criminal activity

    August 2065 The government committee, led by Professor Olga Ferrara. Have now come up with some concrete suggestions to better the economy. Not the full list, but two first suggestions. First and foremost, they suggest to allow for more immigration, to fill vacant job positions. The government accepted to loosen up for a period of 1-2 years, attempting to attract cheap uneducated workers. Secondly the committee asked for fundings, to help owners demolish rental properties, in order to reduce the number of empty apartments. Something that burdens society with unnecessary maintenance costs. An initiative that was also approved by the government, despite a risk of increased homelessness. Apartment buildings in 2nd row at Pasture Road and several buildings in North District was demolished during August month. More will likely follow in the coming months. A small park was created replacing the apartments at Pasture Road.

    June 2065 Nate S. Dubois, the son of Luca S. Dubois died just a few months after his 3rd birthday. British travel, culture, and food journalist Robert Hughes was asked to talk about what he saw as Bounty’s best restaurants. Visit Bounty have no influence on Mr. Hughes choices. They are all his subjective thoughts. 1/ Het Wilde Varken, price level: High. Everyone visiting Cepero Island, locals as well as foreigners, should put on the Sunday dress on and visit Het Wilde Varken, located in the beautiful Inland See Waterfront, between Ruben Ruiz Strait and Inland Sea. Chef Daichi Fernández makes an amazing fusion food, which combines dishes from the Netherlands and Flanders with Caribbean ingredients. 2/ Yate Club Bounty, price level: Very high. In 2058, London TV personality and fashion blogger Mary Wright and her partner Italian actress Giorgia Biancho, bought the Yate Club restaurant and turned it into a seafood paradise. French chef Arthur Roux, makes the best sea food from local suppliers, don’t miss out on his amazing “Bay Scallop pickled in banana liqueur, with fried corn and chocolate sauce”. Reserve a table, weeks in advance. 3/ Zhūròu Bōluó, Price level: High If you are tired of Caribbean luxury food and want to try something very different, I’d say Zhūròu Bōluó is for you. The sweet Bōluó Jiàng Zhūròu (Pork in Pineapple Sauce) is splendid. Another wonderful dish on their menu is Mápó Dòufu (A stew of minced beef, tofu, fermented beans and chili paste). The latter only suitable for those who like strong food. The restaurant is located next to the beautiful Mónica Roux Monument, just south of Bounty China Town. Sadly, the nearby truck depot is quite noisy. Avoid sitting outside if visiting within working hours. 4/ Hotel America, price level: Medium The best restaurant, value for money, might be the one in Hotel America. Not to be confused with the next-door Hotel America Burger, which is mediocre at best. The Hotel America Restaurant is a large and a bit noisy family restaurant. Serving solid Italian/Austrian food. Pizza; Pasta; Wiener Schnitzel; Gulasch; Lamb and Fish dishes. 5/ Pub D'Angelo, price level: low. Most tourists have heard of the famous 1898 pub, the The Donkey Mansion. But honestly, despite the historical value of the building, that is a tourist trap. If you want to visit a great local pub, you are looking for Pub D'Angelo. Located in D’Angelo’s old village, this is a temple to good old-fashioned Bounty Rum and simple but wonderful local farmer’s food. Owned and run by Bounty-born Mónica Bertrand, who also create the delicious dishes.

    April 2065 The government committee, led by Professor Olga Ferrara. Made a first report about the economic decline in 2064. According to the report, there seem to be a number of combined factors, behind the recession. Exports were 21% lower than the average of the latest 5 years. Tourism 18% lower. Rent and Financial services 17,6% lower. Indicating a general decline in activities of all sectors. A good thing though, is that prices on the most important export items have been stable. The expenses were overall quite stable, although social cost was relatively high compared to previous period. The committee asked for more time to dig deeper into the numbers, unable to come up with any clear answers at this point in their investigation. Beside the fact that new costly social initiatives should be avoided until the economy has been stabilised. The government accepted an extension of the committee's mandate. Olga Ferrara’s committee office, located at the 2nd floor, in the back of Financial Science Center, facing North Jungle Nature Reserve.

    thanks for following
  21. Taking a Christmas break from my Tropico Story, to make a tread/story about my newly acquired Anno 1800. My first Anno Series game. Just finished the (tutorial style) campaign. Now heading into the sandbox, no intension making it hard, just want to enjoy this first game on normal settings. The first thing I encounter is this funny personality. January 1808 A subject of Danish King Christian 7. I am sent to Faroe Islands to reclaim as much as possible, as we lost control after the war with England in the early 1800’s. With just one flagship, a small group of settlers, and a little bit of resources and rigsdaler (old Danish money). We settle on the Island of Streymoy. Starting a simple farming village and a sawmill. Currently 120 people. March 1808 News of Streymoy soon spread in Denmark, farmers come from the poorest regions, mostly in Jylland and on Fyn. Local production of “brændevin” (Strong alcohol) and simple working clothes have begun. The first pub called “Værtshuset” is now able to serve the locals. Even a fire station was constructed and the first brick building. June 1808 In May, I send an article to Copenhagen Newspaper, Danske Post-Tidende, recruiting specialised workers to join our community. Soon we got a brick factory, and a slaughter house, creating sausages, like black pudding, medisterpølse and different kinds of salami. The brick factory employees, are organized in a worker union, the first of its kind in the world. A subject of William I of the Netherlands have settled a nearly island, we are currently at peace with them. We now got 277 farmers and 150 workers living in our port town Thorshavn. Map

    Thanks CorinaMarie. (I'm not sure what I wrote, but something like this) This will be the end of this story. The game was very good fun, and I may start another run with more focus on winning at some point, or get some DLC's (i read they change the gameplay a lot). Anyway the story covers most of the opportunities and continue on a story level would be too repetitive.
  24. Thorshavn - Anno 1800

    August 1813 (New World) Consumption of Rum in the Old World have become a lot higher that the amount of Rum, produced and shipped from the New World. Resulting in unreasonably high prices. Minister Secretary Frederik von Scholten, has previously pointed at this issue and recently he sent a direct order, that we must produce a lot more rum, without any further hesitation. The first step was taken at Saint Louise, with construction of another two distilleries. Rum distilleries at Ciudad Península Norte August 1813 (Brazilian Exploration) Johann Ludwig Burckhardt's expedition landed on a small island. A party, led by the native tracker Bosum, was sent into the jungle to search for fresh water. The party was encamped when the volcano suddenly erupted.

September 1813 (Old World) Following a request from the upper class of Thorshavn, they have now been given an electricity grid, and electric lamps are imported from the factory in Avedøre. At present, the power is provided by simple, very unstable generators, but the plan is to build a larger power plant as soon as possible. Thorshavn September 1813 (New World) In recent years, we have repeatedly had to pay off the Caribbean pirates to ensure a stable transportation system. But now the king has demanded that we assemble a large fleet near Saint Caroline and that we take the necessary confrontation.
