What You’re Told
You’re told that there was a mysterious island in the Atlantic belonging to an advanced civilisation which vanished without a trace, and that the story is “a myth”.
The Real Story
The island never disappeared, it was still visible as clear as day in Plato’s time until today.
The cataclysm began with something like a hurricane, and at the end of the story the imperialists die fighting themselves – being unable to control the territories of others.
It happens about every 10,000 years. The last time it happened was around the end of the wooly mammoth era.
The word “myth” refers to it being a Greek history, although even some Greek historians in ancient times believed it was only a tale told to scare young empires. I guess we will find out.
