Reefs is one of the four districts of the Harvian Islands. It includes the towns Thousand Apples and West Rock. The State is very politicaly active and is a great tourist attraction. The state is governed by Harvian politcian Simon Vase-Sheraldin.
History[]
Reefs was the latest island to be found, by a friend of Thomas Harves, English-German explorer Fredrick Reefs. The island quickly grew in population because of the very fertile soil in Thousand Apples. Soon after the island became an official entity in 1998, the last of all the islands to do so. In 2000 because of conflicts between the Samoans and German-Dutch population, West Rock was designated as a town for Samoans. West Rock had already existed for some time since the 1950's but became an official settlement in 2001. It was home to many Muslims and Samoans. The island has become an amazing tourist destination because of the Gaping Tony in West Rock and the interesting Oktoberfest, Chistmas festivals, and history of Thousand Apples.
