Flopsy-Turvey Island

I just received two brilliant pieces of work by Matthew from St Edwards School. His description rich in information including the history of the island, the type of inhabitants and its geography. He's also created a beautiful, clear map on his computer.

Not only is it well written, but it's intriguing too. I wonder what Upside Down City is like ...

Flopsy-Turvey Island

Flopsy-Turvey Island is not exactly paradise; when it was discovered, early on in 2002, it was told that the team were exploring because of a volcano eruption in the area. The land was desolate and grey, as if everything was dying and withering; although it looked desolate, it was teeming with life, and would soon become a stable enough environment for humans to live in. The island is located 900 miles off of the southern most tip of Portugal and was not put on maps because it would be too small to fit on and still be to scale. Now it has a population of just over 6324 (including all wildlife) spread out over 5 cities and 4 towns and villages. The capital city holds 33.3% of them. The majority of people speak Portuguese but some speak English and some Chinese. Tubsters of Terror, Tigs and Lumipoo Momps enjoy living here.
