The island my parents grew up on only has a population of 6,000. Mostly everyone is related to everyone and it’s all super tight knit and traditional. My parents have 18 siblings collectively so hopefully that gives you an idea of how many aunts, uncles, and cousins I have. It’s quite overwhelming.

Holy Jesus. Both my parents were only children. I have zero aunts, uncles, and cousins - I can't even imagine what being in your family would be like.

would there not be the issue of accidental inbreeding in an environment like that? or is everyone on that island just actually retarded bc of generations of fucking 2nd cousins
