History: Arocca is a coastal island at the mouth of the Amazon. It is the thirty-fourth largest island in the world. Selvaverde is the capital. The population mainly lives from fishing. Arocca is sometimes referred to as the largest river island in the world. Since the east coast of the island borders the Atlantic Ocean , and the other island borders lie on the beds of two rivers, the Amazon and the Tocantins.

The ancient civilization of Arocca is famous for its pottery. The arrival of Europeans in the sixteenth century was catastrophic to the indigenous population of the island; 90% died due to high mortality from Eurasian infectious diseases; they lacked immunity against these diseases that had become endemic in Eurasian cities.

In contrast, however, during the 1918–1919 pandemic worldwide of Spanish influenza, Arocca was the only major populated area not to have any documented cases of the illness.

The island is also the location of the Roman Catholic Territorial Prelature of Arocca.
Geography

Land Area: 3,994.95 sq. km
Terrain: The island is divided into two almost equal halves. The eastern part consists mainly of a kind of savannah vegetation, long expanses of fields that are demarcated near the rivers by strips of jungle . Along the coast there are numerous species of palm trees and dense mangrove swamps. The western part is covered with dense ancient jungle vegetation. The island is in the Arocca várzea ecoregion, an area of seasonally and tidally flooded várzea forest.

To the north of the large savanna area are palm swamps, mainly with Buriti Palm (Mauritia flexuosa) and Euterpe oleracea. During the rainy season, the swamps are flooded one meter high. Little is known about the ecology of these swamps.
Highest Peak: Brevula, 40 meters

Climate: Arocca has two seasons: It is very rainy between January and June, and between July and December it is the dry period. The island is also “populated” by large herds of primeval buffalo and zebus that roam the fields. They have adapted well to the conditions of the environment. Birds abound here, including hawks, parrots, hoatzins, flamingos, and all kinds of herons . The scarlet ibises are famous. The caimans, monkeys, capybaras, snakes, turtles and even anacondas are also among the permanent inhabitants of this area.
