'''Yamato''' is an island nation located south of the main continent, it comprises most of the islands in the Yamato Archipelago.▼
▲Yamato is an island nation located south of the main continent, it comprises most of the islands in the Yamato Archipelago.
Yamato is currently a Shogunnate in the process of transitioning into a constitutional monarchy. It consists of 7 prefectures which are governed by members of the daimyo or admiralty.
Line 31 ⟶ 9:
Yamato was first settled in September 2019, the islands of Yamato were unified under an emperor and his imperial court based in Honshu.
== History ==
The Islands that comprise Yamato were first settled in September 2019 as a result of what was fated to become a one-way expedition out of [[Port Paradis]].
==== The Great Gamble ====
Line 42 ⟶ 18:
==== The Prison Age ====
As the settlement of Honshu grew, the lands were surveyed and mapped, much was learned about the isles during this era for example: unlike in the lands of [[Tenochtitlan]] cattle does not grow on trees, in fact the islands of Honshu and Kyushu were completely devoid of animal species with the exception of the parrot swarms.
The lack of livestock presented a significant challenge for the people of Yamato as with no access to wool it was impossible to make ships and without ships trading for developmental resources was incredibly difficult.
==== The Varathian Expedition ====
[[File:Yamato Islands Map.png|alt=|thumb|500x500px|Map of the Yamato Isles]]The first weeb [[Jamesie_S]] left the isles, vowing not to return again without sheep.
After a very long swim Jamesie_S reached the continent in an unfamiliar location, sand dunes stretched as far as the eye can render, this was the beginning of a very long journey into the desert.
Line 52 ⟶ 28:
He walked further into the desert until the sun began to recede, up ahead in the distance, he saw a shimmering light, his head grew heavy and his eyes grew dim, he had to stop for the night. The light turned out to be coming from a place called “Traveler’s lodge” a welcome sight. The lodge offered food and a bed which were desperately needed as the swim across the sea prevented him from bringing much in the way of supplies.
The next day he journeyed deep into the mesa, until it was split by a large river and on the other side lay dense jungle and quartz mountains, there was still no sign of sheep or of civilization at all, until there was; the first weeb had chanced upon a fellow traveller. After a brief chat the friendly wanderer informed the first weeb that he would find all he seeks in a land named [[Varathia]] and that he should seek an audience with The Emporor [[Aresot]].
The day was still young but another long journey into the desert would be necessary before reaching Varathia, with no protection from roaming wolves and other dangers of the night, he had no time to waste.
Line 58 ⟶ 34:
The trek itself wasn't fruitless, while travelling through the desert expanse the first weeb came across beetroot seeds and sugar canes, two things that weren't present in Yamato before the expedition.
As the day went on the mesa gave way to yellow sands, which in turn gave way to grasslands and finally he had reached [[Olendor]], Varathia.
It didn't take long before the first weeb had sheep eggs and a few hay bales, despite being offered a boat if he stayed in Olendor another night, he was eager to head home with sheep in tow, so that's what he did.
Line 65 ⟶ 41:
==== The Formation of The Yamato Imperial Navy ====
Newly equipped with boats Yamato entered a new age of exploration, outposts were established on the northern continent of [[Napistan]] as the search for tin got underway.
Admiral [[Kamikaze_san]] established the first Yamato colony, ushering in the beginning of Yamato as an empire.
It was during this era that the people of Yamato started practicing a new religion: Tin worship.
The people of Yamato would make sacrifices to the tin gods in hope of better yields, however the tin gods were often cruel and a great many hours of time was lost in the mines of the Napistan outpost.
Line 80 ⟶ 56:
==== Territorial Disputes ====
Originally Yamato only comprised of Honshu and Kyushu, however following the collapse of the Incan Empire their former claims became contested ground, especially as demand for cocoa was growing and Inca formerly possessed several key cocoa growing areas.
After a lot of heated discussion between the interested parties and with support from [[Khailsan]] and Tenochtitlan it was generally agreed that Yamato had the strongest claim to the old Incan islands.
==== The Ömnod Southern Alliance ====
Following some successes in disputing claims made by larger nations through working as a group, it was agreed that the only way the fledgling Southern nations could stand up to the developed nations of the North was if they formed an alliance and pooled their resources. This alliance was comprised of Khailsan, Tenochtitlan and Yamato, with [[Miletos]] considering membership. Ultimately the alliance would fall through with the departure of The Great Khan from Khailsan.
