Velliosa The Island That History Erased

In 1823, the island of Velliosa appeared on European maps, a small but thriving settlement off the coast of Portugal. By 1870, it had vanished without a trace. Official records blamed an earthquake, yet letters uncovered by journalist Elias Moreau suggest a deliberate cover-up. The documents, found in an old archive, mention a secretive group that sought to erase Velliosa due to an unknown discovery made by its inhabitants. Strangely, even modern satellite images show no trace of land. Moreau, while researching through Wikipedia writing services, stumbled upon cryptic references hinting that the island’s fate was no accident.
