Atlantis, is a city, also considered a world[1] featured in Greek Mythology.

Atlantis is based on the location of the same name from Greek Mythology.

History[]

Atlantis was a city, arguably in different seas such as the Aegean Sea, the Mediterranean Sea and the Bermuda Triangle. The city was once a beautiful island with gold and silver pillars situated everywhere.[2] It would also have very rich people and it would have between 5-6 different smaller islands around the floating city.[2] However, the people started becoming very vengeful, greedy and corrupt and they planned to take over the world. The gods, however, disapproved and sent earthquakes, volcanoes/lava and tsunamis to destroy the city. The city now lies under the water and it is unknown if it is just myth or if it is real.[2]
