Peace Land Seal
This seal represents the most important things that the people of Peace Land cherish. School is an everyday thing, and everyone in peace land is expected to have a good education so they can some day become successful and have a good future. Family is one of the most important things to all residents, family is always there, and will never give up on you. Peace land is also a place that demonstrates peace, and the dove, and a peace sign demonstrate what our society is all about, there is no violence, and rarely ever any fighting so this is why both the dove and peace sign are such a great example to use for our utopia.

map
This is a picture of what Peace Land looks like. Peace Land consists of several parks, lakes, and a lot of places to visit. Almost everyone who lives in Peace Land lives right by a lake. Each house in this utopia have similar characteristics, their all big, and are all kept clean. No one in Peace Land is poor so we all have nice houses to live in. Up above is a picture of what an average persons house will look like.
Impt. Landmarks
Since the dove is Peace Land's signature bird, or animal, in the middle of our society is a state of the dove. This dove once again represents peace, and is honored by the people.
People
In Peace Land, the people dress as ordinary people. Jeans, and a shirt are a typical outfit for boys and girls. Although most people find it disrespectful if a lot of skin is displayed especially on younger girls. WE don't have a strict dress code, but its usually just common sense for people to follow here in peace land.
Transcendental?
Peace Land believes in transendentalism somewhat. In Peace Land we believe that everyone needs time to reflect. That is why the kids walk home from school through the park. It is a time to reflect and think about everything in your life. We do, however, believe that you need leaders in your life. We have a president and cabinet of people who keep things in order. There are rules, but they are simple and easy to follow. People would conform to this society 100 percent. It is a great opportunity for everyone to be involved in.

Every year, Christmas is a great day in Peace Land. Everyone sings Christmas carrols, drinks hot chocolate around a bonfire, and exchanges gifts. The entire society decorates a giant tree together. No one is left home on this day, and no one will be alone. Everyone shares the gifts they are given. In the morning there are large bufffets of food. A group of volunteers cook the food and everyone gathers together and talks. Usualy then, people go home, do chores, and t hen prepare for the night time festivities.

Government
The government of Peace Land is a democracy. We believe that everyone should have equal opportunities and have an equal chance at happiness. We will have a leader who will be chosen by the people. The leader will then chose a cabin of people who he/she thinks will be efficient workers in running Peace Land. This is how our society will make decisions and be ran efficiently.
Daily Itinerary
The average persons daily itinerary in peace land
- wake up at about 10:00 am
- have breakfast with their family or friends.
- Then we will attend a day of school with friends.
- Most kids will walk home after school to think about their day, and just to have some time for themselves.
- Then we typically will enjoy our day doing what we like to do such as: shopping, playing sports, hanging out with friends, working, watching TV, going to the movies..etc.
- At about 4 pm. the average peace land inhabitant will go home for dinner with their family, or go out to eat with friends.
- At around 6 pm. we will typically go back out with his/her friends to hang out until they are expected back home which is the parents decision.
- Most of the rules such as curfew is determined by parents, and most parents keep curfews to a reasonable time.
- Schedules change on holidays, and special occasions, like in the U.S Peace Land has off on holidays, and gets a break from school every now and then but our daily itinerary's are usu sally pretty self explanatory and work out great everyday.
Dear _______,
Peace Land is a new society, or uptopia that has several diferent purposes and rules. In the U.S today there is a lot of violence, arguments, and bad people where in Peace Land all of those bad things no longer exist. Peace Land is a place where everyone can feel safe with the people their around and the places they live. When arguments occur there is a way to fix them without violence, no one will feel afraid in our Utopia because of our rules/laws/and consequences. The best thing about Peace Land is that no one will ever be alone, some people fear that they will have to spend the rest of their life alone and in Peace Land this is impossible, everyone will have someone. If violence,fear,sadness and arguments are somethings that you like then I'd say Peace Land is not for you, but I don't think that many people wouldn't want to live in Peace.
