Distribution of flatfish flat.... flatfish flatfish economy

Flatfish Ideology

Flatfish are commonly known for their thoughtless eyes and souless movements. There is nothing happening in those stockstill limbs and stupid mouths. They are immoral, and wrong; the economy. They are nothing more than tools to be distrubuted, there is nothing for them. But, as more and more is discovered and learned about flatfish, their more complex ideas, religions, and economic practices have been uncovered. There is still much to learn, but not a lot of time.

It All Started

It wasn't expected, but flatfish seemed to have understood the written word and established a national bank. There was no reason for this bank, but they'd decided to exchange stocks and goods, "For the economy!" they'd say, "For democracy!" they'd say. They'd established multiple ways of income, trading shells and marine snow around like it was the most precious gold. The things they'd trade were only tools, but little did the flatfish know, they themselves were the real puppet of the currency they believed to have control over. They had no idea what was to come, and their own decisions were their ultimate downfall.

Now, with nothing more than the sand to burrow through, the flatfish have gained a type of "fishpression", said to be derived from the words "fish" and "depression". They have nothing left, and nothing left means extinction.

Imminent extinction

Depression wasn't what was forecasted for the flatfish species as a whole to die from, but now "fishpression" has been recognized and the economic recession has led to the downfall of the genus. Like the colony of Roanoke, us white fish have no idea what have happened to the population, we have simply risen too far above and been intergrated with normal cultures. Flatfish are a dying species, but it is considered to be for the best.
