Belongington: Law Enforcement

History of Belongington

Belongington was founded in 2011 in the minds of intelligent, young Primary School students who were searching for a place to truly belong.

Nestled in the Valley of Inclusion, at the foot of the Acceptance mountain range, what began as a small village has flourished into a thriving, self-sufficient town. The people of Belongington pride themselves on the inclusive nature of their community, and strive to provide opportunities for people of all backgrounds, regardless of their differences. The town slogan reads “Difference is our strength” and this ideal is evident in every little facet of the town.

In Belongington there is a place for everyone, you cannot help but feel like you belong when you visit this astonishingly impressive and inspirational town.
