Modern science has found that before the flood, there may really have been a continent on the earth, and this continent has a high degree of civilization. In a global disaster, the continent sank into the Atlantic Ocean. In the past century, the remains of prehistoric civilization discovered by archaeologists at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean seem to confirm this hypothesis. In folk parlance, people call this land "Daxizhou" and the country that gave birth to prehistoric civilization "Daxi Country". In fact, the scientific community has long named this mysteriously disappeared continent, that is, it has followed Plato's name: Atlantis.

Plato's book records
In the description of the Greek philosopher Plato, Atlantis is a beautiful and technologically advanced island, and its history can be traced back to 370 BC. In his book, he wrote: Atlantis not only has gorgeous palaces and temples, but also has huge sacred places for sacrifice. Plato said in his description that the Atlanteans had unimaginable wealth. Atlantis was honest and kind at first, with extraordinary wisdom and carefree life. However, with the passage of time, Atlanteans' ambitions began to swell, and they began to send troops to conquer neighboring countries.
Their lives became more and more corrupt, and their endless extravagance and moral decay finally angered the gods. As a result, Zeus, the king of gods, brought earthquakes and floods to Daxi Island overnight, and Atlantis was finally swallowed up by the sea and disappeared into the unfathomable sea.
Plato's Utopia: Ancient Atlantis
Plato recorded the story of Atlantis told by his cousin Corisias in his book Dialogue. Socrates' disciple Corisias emphasized the authenticity of Atlantis three times in his dialogue. Corisias said that his great-grandfather heard this story from the Greek poet Solon (about 639-559 BC). Sauron was the wisest of the seven sages of ancient Greece. On a trip to Egypt, Soren heard the theory of Atlantis from an ancient Egyptian priest. The main contents of the dialogue record are as follows:
On the Atlantic Ocean to the west of the Mediterranean, there is a huge continent with amazing civilization. There are countless gold and silver produced on the mainland, and all the palaces are walled with gold walls and silver walls. The walls of the palace are also inlaid with gold and resplendent. There, the development of civilization is unimaginable. There are well-equipped ports and ships, as well as objects that can carry people. Its influence is not limited to Europe, but also as far away as the African continent. The mural above was found in Tiri, Arquero. The city was buried 3,500 years ago due to the eruption of San Dorigny volcano, and was excavated from volcanic ash in 1967, which seems to describe a fleet going to North Africa for trade. After the earthquake, it sank to the bottom of the sea, and its civilization disappeared in people's memory.
Plato mentioned this island two thousand years ago, which made many people yearn for it, but no one could provide strong evidence to prove that Atlantis really existed. Because Atlantis disappeared after a volcanic earthquake and flood, Atlantis sank to the bottom of the sea forever in an instant. According to Plato's account, due to the improvement of civilization and the prosperity of Atlantis, society gradually began to be corrupt, greedy for money and profit. He launched a war to conquer the world. But when they met tenacious Athenian soldiers, they lost the battle. Atlantis betrayed God's favor, which led to the wrath of the gods, thus arousing the power of nature and destroying this evil island.
Atlantis is a huge island ruled by Poseidon in Greek mythology.
According to Greek mythology, the island was divided into 10, which was ruled by five pairs of twins in Poseidon. Atlantis, the oldest male, became the king of kings as an ally. So this huge island was named Atlantis.
Atlantis is located in the Atlantic Ocean outside the "Pillar of haylock" (Strait of Gibraltar), and its area is wider than that of North Africa and Asia Minor combined. Its powerful power is not limited to the surrounding Atlantic islands, but also as far away as Europe, Africa and America (the real continent).
The coast of Atlantis is steep, but there is a vast and fertile plain in the center. 9 kilometers from the sea is the capital Poseidon. The city is very rich and prosperous, with a royal palace and a grand temple dedicated to the patron saint Poseidon in the center. In addition, there is a three-story circular canal around Poseidon. The outermost canal is 500 meters wide and can be used by large ships. These canals are connected with the high seas by land and water, and the width is 100 meters.
The temple is decorated with gold, silver, ivory or a metal called "Ou Li Hakan" and shines like a flame. All the buildings on the island are made of white, black and red stones excavated locally, which are beautiful and spectacular.
Outside the ring city is a vast plain, surrounded by ditches, with a depth of 30m, a width of180m and a total length of1800km. The canals inside crisscross every18km, just like a chessboard. People use this water to grow grains and vegetables, and use canals to transport products to consumption areas.
There are three ports where the waterway meets the sea. There are many residents living densely near the port, and ships and businessmen from all over the world come and go between the three huge ports in an endless stream, so the port area is noisy day and night.
The plain is divided into 90,000 areas, and each area has a commander. The commander is responsible for dispatching one-sixth of the cost of a chariot, two horses, two cavalry, 1 light chariot, one infantry and one coachman. In addition, it can send 12 fighters and 4 sailors. If these forces are added together, Atlantis will have a powerful fighting capacity of1.2000 troops at any time.
Atlantis finally crossed the strait of Gibraltar and began to invade other countries with its strong national strength.
It was the Athenians who bravely resisted the attack of Atlantis. After fierce fighting, the Athenians finally repelled the Atlantis army, ensuring the independence of the country and the freedom of the people. But the unknown tragic fate happened immediately.
Due to the terrible earthquake and flood at that time, Athens' army fell into the ground in only one "tragic day and night", and Atlantis also fell into the sea and disappeared from the earth forever. This happened before 12000.
This is the panoramic view of Atlantis depicted by the Greek philosopher Plato in Demos and gladys. This is the story Plato told Thoreau, one of the Greek sages, from the mouth of Egyptian priests, and wrote it into his own book to introduce it to the world.

The urban structure of Atlantis
The buildings in Atlantis are concentric circles, separated from each other by ships. With the deepening, identity restrictions become more stringent.
The inner ring of the ring is the most important temple and reservation. The architecture of the city makes people feel the charm of music wonderfully. Gold-plated dome, due to the difference of wind and temperature, will make a harmonious sound. Usually three syllables. For Atlantis, the third is an important feature, that is, the lines will be repeated three times. The complex consists of three groups of similar buildings and three pyramids. The streets on every floor of the city are diagonally distributed, and there are many intricate underground corridors from one corner of the seaside to the other.
The capital of Atlantis (also called Oceania and Atlantis) is Poseidon (also called Poseidon). It can be said that it represents the essence of Daxizhou and is a collection of culture, art and technology. This is a monumental city, a model for other countries, and shows the greatness of Atlantis.
The investigation of Atlantis. It is a classic model of the legendary city, which is connected by a series of concentric circles floating on the sea. You can see how it arranges from low to high to the center. The central part is the base camp, with a diameter of nearly 2.5 kilometers.
The ocean passage connects two concentric layers of landscape. Looking out from the inside of the city, you can see another layer of the city. The inland waters of Atlantis. There is a lighthouse on the right. Two metal sculptures support a huge lamp. In the background are three flying cars in the sky. Some solemn buildings in the central city. At the top of the stairs, the wings of the sculpture head are obvious. In the art of Atlantis, that means endless life. The overall design of the city embodies the peak of various arts as much as possible. The stairs lead to a comprehensive university.
Gold is the most commonly used building material. The most splendid buildings in the city center are of astronomical significance. Those magnificent buildings will make a harmonious sound in the wind. The center of the city. The gilded musical dome is a planetarium and other public buildings. Not everyone has the right to enter the central city. There are huge caves everywhere. This is a pillar. If you look closely, you will find that the entrance is a symbol of Taurus, as well as men and bulls.
This emerald is carved into a transparent shape with the main password of the city written on it. Translate into different languages and dialects. Emerald is placed in an underground room, closely guarded, which is the most sacred place in Atlantis.
The king of Atlantis was buried in a valley not far from the city. This is a deep valley, dedicated to the cemetery. Those tombstones record a person's life. Not only officials but also artists are buried here. The valley is above the mountain and there are many extinct prehistoric animals.
