While out on a fishing trip, you run into a boat you have never seen before. Clearly, there is someone else somewhere on the island. How will your society handle this situation? What determines the ownership of land and resources? Will everyone be willing to live together on the island at the same time? What kinds of negotiations and conversations will be necessary? You have just found out that in a remote area of the island (a place with fantastic groves of mango and banana) there exists a tribe of people native to this island. It is also rumored that the ground underneath this tribe is rich in coal deposits. You could use coal as a fuel for your new machines; what should you do? Will you ask the tribe to join your culture and share the resources? Will you leave them alone? Will you remain separate but establish peaceful relations? Will you ask them to move? Give them another part of the island? How will you deal with these 'new' people and their resources? Explain your reasoning.
