Eastern Islands of Dharma are the remains of a once-vibrant and active roleplaying community, which were abandoned in 2012 by their founder Unibot, who went off in search of some good poontang -- or something. After Unibot was deleted, the region was raided by DEN. Dharma was notable for attracting many World Assembly authors, for much drama regarding internal elections and foreign military bases, and for a "hate-crush on Antarctic Oasis." DEN withdrew its forces some weeks after invading, and apparent AQI-lover Quelesh, the region's last remaining native, closed its borders.
EID was refounded by longtime Unibot nemesis Jakker in January 2016.
