Prison Island

Prison Island is an island that is located in the Atlantic Ocean and about halfway between North America and Europe. It was founded in the early Middle Ages, around 990 AD. It was originally a jail for Vikings and would later on become a jail for pirates, Native Americans, mobsters, outlaws, and even aliens. It was co-owned by both the federal governments of the United States of America and the United Kingdom, from the late 19th century up until its closure on the 21st of March 1961. It was sort of like Alcatraz Island, only worse. The prison guards were very harsh and inhumane on many of the prisoners, making them have to do all kinds of rigid manual labour. Many of the prison guards were from the United States as well as England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland alike.
