A SHORT ACCOUNT OF THE ISLE OF WORRO WORRO

In 1817 a derelict pirate ship pulled into Dooblong Bay on the isle of Worro Worro. Billy and Shark, two young shipmates, were sent ashore to find water. They were met by an emissary of King Kookilannu Ennu who gave them coconut milk.

Shortly the indigenous inhabitants of Worro Worro, seeing the chance to sail the seas, joined the pirate crew of Captain N. Dooblong.

After a time a joint rulership emerged on Worro Worro, wherein Kookilannu and Captain Dooblong ruled together. Barbarosa, a native of Worro Worro became the lieutenant Governor.

The Kingdom of Undinia, who claim overseership of Worro Worro, regard the island as part of their Commonwealth.
