TIL What and where is Tristan de Cunha
I wonder what the people do day to day. I can’t even imagine how much it must suck to be a kid there.
It’s such a closed system, they can even track when new genetics were introduced in the “early 1900s” by visiting Russian ships.
Heading towards inbred by an aging declining population.
I would suspect it’s like a lot of small towns: Inward facing, busy keeping their own share of limited local resources from being grabbed by other locals.
I like the idea of fighting giant mice
