Kyra Panagia

Kyra Panagia (Greek: Κυρά Παναγιά [ˈcira paˈnaʝa]) is a Greek island in the Sporades. It is administratively part of the municipality of Alonnisos in the Sporades regional unit. The island is also known by the name of Pelagos and rarely Pelagonisi. In Antiquity it was known as Ephthyros (Έφθυρος) and Polyaigos (Πολύαιγος). A bay in the south west of the island is named Agios Petros. Kyra Panagia has belonged to the Athonite monastery of Megisti Lavra since it was granted the island by the Byzantine emperor Nikephoros II Phokas in 963. There is a monastery renovated in 2017 after 8 years of work and inhabited by a single monk, on the east coast of the island. As of 2011, the resident population of the island was 2.[1] Kyra Panagia is in Zone B of the Alonnisos Marine Park.

gollark: I think stuff kind of works if you just let nodes set their own prices (except you are still incentivized to jam people randomly, for arbitrage or otherwise), but that's just the regular internet.
gollark: (with you as C, and with B unable to reach A directly now)
gollark: So instead of the initial `internet ←→ A ←→ B`, `internet ←→ A ←→ C ←→ B`.
gollark: I think you could make that work.
