Clear Island
Clear Island is the home of the pirate, Faucon Tallis.

Geography
Clear Island is located on the South Blue of the Grand line. It's named Clear for its tropical, clean ocean waters and rivers. It is shaped like a soggy nacho. Green covered mountains spread across the entire island, covering the northern, eastern and western coasts and center, leaving only the wide southern gap with a beach and harbor. It is a self-developing country that requires no need for imports.

History
It was nicknamed Rain Island for its non-stop, heavy rainfall that lasted 63 years. The cause is yet to be known. However, when the weather got steady a year after, that name dropped, and went back to its official name: Clear island. Moreover, this incident went down as the worst rain storm in its history, and it is still very fresh in the minds of its citizens and the people of South Blue. On occasion, it may be referred to as Rain Island for it's infamous reputation of the storm.

Civilazation
Most of the residents of Clear Island have no interest in becoming a marine or pirate. This town loves art and entertainment. With every village having at least two art, and performing arts schools, it has the happiest citizens as well as large tourist attractions. The most prominent places are:

Clarion Town:
The largest town on the island. It is located in the south, near the harbor and spreads prior to the east and northeastern cliffs. It carries the most widespread forms of entertainment; such as, operas, ballets, plays, comedy shows and so much more.

Sunny Village:
Where Tallis was conceived and born. A small, mountainous town located in the western arm of Clear Island. Before the rainstorm, it had the driest, rockiest mountains on the island.

Noor Village:
This village is known for its mines, and crystal clear gems and jewels. It is located in the center of the island; it circles an inactive volcano where most of the mines are found. However, most of these gems are not very precious. The valuable jewels are located within the dark, tight, sulfur fumed depths of the volcano's dangerous mines.
