how does an archipelago form?
An archipelago is a group of islands more or less closely situated to each other. Causes for formation are diverse: Say… you can find them in a voulcanic activity zone as the Pacific Rim. Also you can find archipelagos wherever there was once a low sea level in a hill/mountain peak chain. Water floods in and isolates the portions of land. Atlantis- the lost continent is supposedly to have survived as an archipelago such as the Cape Verde.
