But, cut off from modern infastructure the city will be in for a tough time to survive.  Most of the islands are stuck in the Bronze Age.  Higher technology cities do exist though.  Here is what I have so far:Giant Island.  One of the larger islands.  Its major landmarks consist of the Statue of Liberty, the Colossus of Rhodes, at least a thousand moai (those stone heads from Easter Island), the Great Sphinx, the Argonath, Christ the Redeemer (Rio de Janeiro), and Big Tex.  There are no known native peoples.  It is thought that the giant lizards which live there killed any.The Pillars.1999 Tokyo that has been sunk.  Only a few skyscrapers poke out from below the waves.  No known people (presumeably drowned) but there are stories of monstrous humanoids living in the remains of Tokyo tower.The Graveyard.An unknown people used this island as a burial ground.  The graves are still intact and mostly unlooted.  It is considered haunted and very unlucky to go there.The Empty Fortress.This island features an impressive walled city that has a canal leading to it from the sea.  Classically educated characters would recognize this city as Platos Atlantis.  It is seemingly abandoned however.  No humans have ever been seen there.  The city itself is untouched due to the many traps and  automated defenses.The Wizards Tower.An old hermit lives alone in the lighthouse at Alexandria.  He is supposed to have great magical power but almost never sees visitors.The Cloud City.Thought to be from some future timeline it is a large grey disk floating half a mile above the sea.  There is a transparent dome on top and what appear to be buildings can be seen faintly.Glyph Isle.An enigmatic place.  Everywhere you look reveals odd characters.  The bark of trees grow in the pattern of runes, rocks have stange carvings, the  capillaries in leaves seem to form letters, even the food which natives grow mysteriously form intricate crop circles.  No one have ever been able to make any sense of the markings.Any ideas?</blockquote>
