| Jul 30, 2020 at 20:26 | comment | added | Duncan Drake | I think 'thriving' may be a problem. It needs to stay put to go unnoticed (either by choice or by other reasons) so would be unable to access resources that are not local. And local would necessarily be a relatively small place or they would not go unnoticed. If the civilizatin was 'surviving' instead of 'thriving' I could propose quite a few places. It has been a common trope in many adventure dime novels in the early XX century though. | |
