Gaeta 1 is the continent with the largest surface of abandoned land and directly-owned Linden land. It is not connected to other continents and its South-East part is unfinished. This small continent has no airport and only two small beach roads (in fact two paths). In East, there are sims of Linden Land, land that have never been sold.

History

The West and South parts of Gaeta 1 were built in a single day, june 4th, 2008. The North brench was built later. The South-East part is still unfinished.

Geography

Gaeta 1 is a large plain. There are no mountains or hills. Only the shore has a small elevation, the rest of the continent is a perfect plain. Sometimes, small slopes can be created from terraforming. Ocean shores have a large beach of yellow sand and also the ocean floor is yellow. Sometimes, groups of stones can be seen under water. Unlike other places, ocean floor has no slopes or holes.

Gaeta 1 is the most unpopulated continent. Even so, the amount of abandoned land is not big. The main reason for this is that a big surface of land was never sold and is still Linden land. Even if the road system is too small, the unsold parcels allow access almost to the entire continent.

Land is divided in 4 major groups: protected land (usually water sims), Linden land (parcels that have never been sold), rental land (belongs to important rentals) and resident parcels (used or abandoned land).

Transportation

Gaeta 1 has only two very short beach roads. However, automatic transportation exists thanks to a small pod vehicle that travels across some unsold parcels. The continent has many water sims and some ports, but navigation is less developed because there is no connection to another continent. Air transportation is also limited to the fact that an airplane cannot leave the continent.
