Backround
In a land leagues away from here, in a time distant from ours, stood a massive archipelago known as Polis. Inbetween the islands stood 5 oceans, that being Oceanica, Midway, Victoria, Emerald, and Undead Sea. East of Midway, Emilie undertook the creation of Manila, sparking her journey into Nationhood. Across an ocean stood the superpower Kawncorp. Borne from the jungles of Manaus, they became the server's largest nationstate in afew weeks.

Collapse of Manila

* ''Flares sparkle across the sky as Isryalite paratroopers drop pass the overwhelmed AA gunners. Shotgun and musket fire ring out through the desolate streets while the faint *din* of artillery hammer the remaining strongholds meekly resisting. Our once beautiful cobbled paths now run red with the blood of our brothers and family. At the time we were close to giving up, the enemy were at our doorstep, they had us beat... then They came. * - Addendum 41 | Drew's Journal''

The Isryala Confederation began an international campaign against any power deemed "noteworthy" in the Midway and Emerald Seas. They swept through the deserts, overrunning small farming communities and using them as staging points for further invasion. This came to a head once they reached the Midway sea, now having access to all of Midway, including Manila. Unbeknownst to them, a new power began colonizing the region, one that would upend the social fabric and bring a Golden Age into Polis, and that power, was Kawncorp. June 9th, 2021 (Emilie's Manor)

After the failure of the Manila Militia, all 15 advisors on her cabinet decided to abandon Manila and flee... "15 folders... all 15 of them... are gone now... I don't UNDERSTAND! *papers slam to the desk* what... d-did I do... so w-wrong..." The emperor of Kawncorp, the mighty TheHomieKawn himself entered the room and handed her a small letter with a proposal. If she accepted, she would leave the ruins of Manila and join Kawncorp as a small princess. With no other option, she joined.

Holy Queen of Sanctuary
'''"AVA ANG EMILIE OUR HOLIEST QUEEN!" - Sanctum Herald (August 2021)'''

Following the abdication of Emilie and later becoming a Japanese vassal, Manila was put under national stasis and was completely shuttered, leaving only a small stone statue to even mark it ever existed. She then ran the nationstate of Sanctuary, pop. 45. Located in Manaus, it quickly grew to occupy all of the Manana Mountain Range and later became a protectorate of Kawncorp.
