The People That Live On This Island Kill Anyone Who Tries To Come Ashore

North Sentinel Island is located in the Bay of Bengal off of the coast of India.  It is well away from landlocked earth, and while it is officially administered by India, no one has been able to make contact with the native inhabitants.  The island is one of the last remaining uncivilized areas of the earth, existing in a rare state of conceded sovereignty.

An indigenous tribe has lived on North Sentinel Island with extremely limited contact with outsiders.   Anyone who has attempted to explore the island has been attacked or outright killed.  North Sentinel  is so dangerous for outsiders that India’s government has established a three-mile exclusion zone in an effort to prevent more violence.

This reminds me of The Odyssey. 

Odysseus / Ulysses and his men confront peril each time they land on an island / new land on their journey back to Ithaca.

Transparency is necessary to ensure decent staff members get elected. Members need to know when staff are misbehaving, so members can be informed voters.

I also have a hard time believing these people have been living on the island for 60,000 years. 

The article says they think only 50-400 people live on the island.  Don't quote me on this, but I'm pretty sure that isn't enough people to sustain a successful breeding population for humans.  If they did reproduce with that few people, they'd eventually go extinct from genetic abnormalities. 

I guess there could have been more people in the past, but even then that island is relatively small.  How many people could it sustain from natural resources alone.  Maybe a few thousand at most.  Especially with no agriculture.

I'd wager they're so violent toward offlanders b/c they've trusted outsiders before and got majorly fucked over by them.  Either comparatively recently or in their past, and passed down through their collective memory.
