The EAV stories involve a hypothetical, but plausible floating nation. Being located at the Equator means, among other things, no hurricanes, tornados or Winter Storms. Ever. This makes the idea of permanently moored vessels feasible. Thunderstorms represent the worst weather phemomena.

The technology level depicted in these stories is present-day. There's basically nothing in these stories that couldn't happen right now. There may well be communities living like this today!
