The subject of this article currently does not have an official name.
The Government is the government of The Island. They investigate, excavate and fix anomalies on the Island.
Overview[]
The Government investigates the strange sightings on the Island, such as The Meteor. They set up bases inside Dusty Divot, Loot Lake and numerous dig sites. They uncovered The Vault under Loot Lake, uncovered The Devoured and discovered volcano vents under dig sites.
The Government's allegiance is unknown, as there is conflicting evidence for if they are a apart of the Imagined Order or not. In Season 9, Singularity teamed up with The Government to build The Mech for the battle against the monster. In the Fortnite X Marvel: Zero War comics, Spider-Man states that The Paradigm teamed up with the Imagined Order, implying that the Government and the Imagined Order are one in the same. However, contradictory evidence exists elsewhere. The Government had to search for IO The Vault in Season 8. Later, in Chapter 3: Season 3 following the Imagined Order's defeat, the Government remained despite there being no IO left. Whether the Government is part of the Imagined Order is unclear, and will most likely remain so until clarified.
