The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The process of joining might be the result of volcanic activity, moving tidal sands, or through land reclamation.
- Islands engulfed by the sea may have submerged because of subsidence, tectonic activity, erosion, or rising sea levels.
- For example, the New Moor island in Bangladesh existed in the 1970s, but was engulfed by the Bay of Bengal in 2011.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Former island article was read about 6,100 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 36 and blocks with 9: each hit it takes is cut by 4 %.
