The small country will no longer exist in a few decades because of flooding. They are planning to move the entire country online, and they’re creating a digital twin of itself. Basically they will exist in the Metaverse.

The highest elevation is 15 feet above sea level. I'm surprised a large wave hadn't cleared the island before.

This stuff happens. Remember Atlantis? Also, the Americas and Africa were joined until we separated.

the made the same predictions about the Maldives



30 Years Ago Officials Predicted The Maldives Would Be Swallowed By The Sea. It Didn’t Happen

Environmental officials warned 30 years ago the Maldives could be completely covered by water due to global warming-induced sea level rise.

That didn’t happen. The Indian Ocean did not swallow the Maldives island chain as predicted by government officials in the 1980s.

In September 1988, the Agence France-Presse (AFP) reported a “gradual rise in average sea level is threatening to completely cover this Indian Ocean nation of 1196 small islands within the next 30 years,” based on predictions made by government officials.
