1890: strange Antarctic items are found, resembling Chilean artifacts. During examination, local rebellion breaks out, perhaps due to the earlier USA-split into four separate countries. All ports and trade are shut down. Visions and unknown miracles occur everywhere. Afterwards, the ports reopen and experts from all major countries arrive. Perhaps they are here to stabilize the region following the coup, but they also seem very interested in these strange events and this mysterious cargo. For information mail owlconlarp@gmail.com.
