Sadly the Indian Ocean territories is the center of a bitter dispute, and I doubt any of the revenue from IO domains accrues to those displaced from their homes

Shoulda guessed from the name "British Indian Ocean" it's a region mired in the most heinous imperialist bullshit.

I wish the colonists a very nice time and I hope very comical things happen to them from the point of view of the Chagossians.
