Saint Helena Island (for the geographical reference)

Saint Helena Island is a remote volcanic island located in the South Atlantic Ocean, about 1,200 miles west of Africa. Known for its rugged terrain and lush landscapes, it covers roughly 47 square miles. The island is historically significant as the place of exile for Napoleon Bonaparte, and it serves as a British Overseas Territory. Its sparse population relies largely on fishing, agriculture, and tourism. The island’s isolation has preserved unique flora and fauna, and it features dramatic cliffs, waterfalls, and a small, charming capital called Jamestown.
