This is and island called Long Island, USA. Population: 7.500.000
This island has a population almost as big as my country. Millions of people have been born, lived and died here with no real impact, all on this island. I find it so bizarre there are places like this in the world, a hive of people just doing nothing. I’m sure there is a German word for it
> I’m sure there is a German word for it We call that Schweden

That is a strange thing to think about. The number of people in the world and around you. Especially because like you said, so few are specifically memorable, and even ones that are now aren't in the future. Just an endless cycle of humanity without real meaning or purpose.
>a hive of people just doing nothing A lot of them do nothing, but they aren’t nothing. Long Island is where the Hamptons are(a group of towns on the eastern edge of the island), which is one of the premier hangout spots for rich people in the world. The top-end golf courses there cost six figures just to get in, in addition to an invite usually. It’s where Andrew Cuomo went when he quit after the sex harassment thing.
