There are no land insects known, the largest land animal is a small primate like monkey and while the waters teem with life and some of it could be potentially dangerous to unprotected human life, the aquatic life forms big enough to harm a human are deep ocean fish that do not come to the warm surface. There are 4,2 million permanent residents on Maritime and additional 3,4 million have registered vacation homes here. Most homes are either on artificial islands camouflaged to look like the real ones or they are in the city on the Ocean floor.
