Civilization

You have been shipwrecked on a tropical island.  It has become obvious that there is no hope of rescue.    The natives, friendly at first, are ready to see you gone. People have begun to hoard food and illness is spreading throughout the population. While it is obvious that most of these people won’t die, they are incapacitated for the time being. Chaos is beginning to occur as healthy individuals scramble to meet the needs of the many, so a government has become necessary. You and your group must organize a functioning government to meet the needs of the greater good.
