The Windward Isles (Spanish: Islas Barlovento Greek: Προς τον άνεμο Νησιά [Pros ton ánemo Ni̱siá]) is a province of the Merchant Republic of West Rhodes and the second most populated one. It is compose by Clay Island, Landgrab Island, Hookview Island and New Bastard Island, the last one being the seat of its capital and demographic center, Reddock

The archipielago was named after the winds that move north, which is where they're located in the Rhodesian sea. Its constituent islands are name by different reason; New Bastard Island got its name from the old Westwardian Bastard Island, named after caBastard for his diplomatic actions to recognize the nation in the international community (All he did was visit us and say the Isles were nice, but that was a different time, a time before nations when all it took to become one was to get recognized as one). Landgrab and Clay Island derive their names from the landrunning meme know whitin the server (actually Clay Island got it's name because Lord_Uxbridge discovered huge deposits of clay whilest claiming the island). And Hookview Island got its name after it being the best place to have a look at providence point, the hookshaped island in the bay of providence, owned by Kurwa.

The archipielago was first claimed by West Rhodes and formalized as a Province after the nation acquired its official nation status. BarabaDruze was its first citizen by settling in N. Bastard Island. Negotiations were held between him and the West Rhodes government about his residency there until it was finally agreed that he will govern the land under the Rhodesian tricolour.

The Archipielago is located in the Sea of Rhodes, bathed by the water of the Alphean Ocean. N. Bastard Island is the biggest of the four. All share the same weather which is the one mostly found in plains.

Reddock is dependant of Rhodesian goods due to their limited land to gather materials. The biggest problem is wood, although there are rumors about an underwater forest about to be established. Around a week after the settlement was established, a big Farm System has been started on the island to feed the population of Reddock, and if the opportuinty shows up, to trade. The Farm consists of Melons, Sugar Cane and Wheat. Next to it, with the help of communists from USSK donating a solid amount of eggs, a Chicken farm was established. Few days afterwards Baraba also made a pretty effective Cactee farm.

Since BarabaDruze moved to West Rhodes from USSK (United Soviet States of Krautchan), some of his friends from there also decided to come and make him company, as well as help him with the building. Soon after, Uzor made an USSK Embassy there in Reddock, as an official sign of cooperation between the two. The biggest issues here is lack of people (although Baraba is constantly trying to get some newfriends there). There are always free slots for building in Reddock, and everyone who wants to build their Homes/Vacation Homes/Stuff there is welcome. As of 24th October Koentinius has made a Hotel in Reddock (after Baraba thought that Reddock needs one). The Hotel consists of 10 rooms with beds and necessary stuff. It is currently the highest building in Reddock, and is surely gonna get some people in since it looks absoultely gorgeous. Whether the rooms are gonna be free or charged is not decided yet.

Like the other provinces of West Rhodes, the W.I. will have a representative in the Rhodesian Parliament once elections are held.

The most notable residents of Reddock are surely BarabaDruze, Koentinius and Junipero, the tri-leaders of Reddock. They are the ones that built the biggest part of it and made it a cozy, nice town. Other then them, CaBastard, TeTeTe and Bragzor helped Reddock in its development as well.
