Peedee Nation (1983: Doomsday)



The Peedee Nation

(Picture to come]

Centered in Florence, SC, the survivors between the Banks of the Great Pee Dee River and the Black River adopted the almost extinct local Native American tribe as their post-DD indenity. Living simple lives, with little attempt to re-establish power or running water, the mostly white population began to rebuild their lives.

However, at the end of six years, there lives were once again disrupted by the leading edge of a category five hurricane in late 1989. The survivors mostly moved to the coast after that to rebuild Georgetown, rationalizing that only there would they be able to notice an approaching storm and prepare for it or escape to the interior.

This following account of this "lost colony" which is drawn largely from the journals of David Beasley, Darlington resident and second "governor" of the short-lived Peedee Nation.
