World Islands
The World or World Islands is an artificial archipelago of various small islands constructed in the rough shape of a world map, located 4.0 kilometres (2.5 mi) off the coast of Dubai, UAE. The World islands are composed mainly of sand dredged from Dubai's shallow coastal waters, and are one of several artificial islands developments in Dubai. The World's developer is Nakheel Properties, and the project was originally conceived by Sheikh Mohhamed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the ruler of Dubai.
As of 2010, only a single island has any building on it, which is a show home - all the other projects having been cancelled or delayed due to the 2008 financial crisis. While the developer and Dubai government deny it, a participant in a related law suit has alleged that the islands are also sinking back into the sea.
The World's overall development costs were estimated at $14 billion USD in 2005.
But looks like noone cares. There are only few islands left.
