 The [[Discordian Cargo Cult]] were the first to announce a name for this land, calling it [[La Islet Bonobo]]. Their explorers had noted the similarity between Shartak and Hispaniola and hence expected an analogue to the island La Gonâve. They laid claim to the area on their clan page on 2 April 2006 and formally named it on 29 April 2006.
-This claim was contested, however, by the [[Royal Expedition]]. One of their members had reached the island on 26 February and a second joined him on 22 March. The majority of the island was added to the [http://www.itechsc.com/misc/shartak/ubermap/ Shartak UBER MAP] as a result of their efforts, shortly thereafter. Discussion of a suitable name was underway without having reached a resolution when the proclaimation of the [[Discordian Cargo Cult|DCC]] precipitated a reaction. On 3 May the [[Royal Expedition|RE]] declared the land to be called [[Shark Island]].

 Unity Island used to have a [[portal]] to [[Sacred Space]] at {{map|70|587|26|425}}, but this portal no longer exists for unknown reasons.
 As of 2026, there are many signposts on the beaches declaring Unity Island as a sanctuary for [[zombie]] animals.

 The '''western islets''' (or '''islands''') are three minor land masses in the gulf to the west of the main island. Two lie close to the northern shore of the south-most peninsula and are seperated by shallow straits from the mainland. The third is considerably larger and lies off the west coast of the mainland separated by shark-infested waters.
