Majulah

Majulah, officially the Kingdom of Majulah, is a sovereign city-state in the north east of Eldham of the Valresh region and is currently lead by its second Monarch, King Subvert Dumeur. Majulah is one of the 5 nations that were formed as the result of the collapse of the Consitutional Monarchy of Yunria.

A Town's Origins
Not much information is still known about how Majulah first came to be other then that it was originally named Higatoshi and that it was originally created by a unknown person after the end of the Second Coalition-Ellysian War, who later went missing resulting in the town being abandoned. Eventually the town would be given life again by Wardaddy, ItzKaipple, and Giivasunner who were shipwrecked and decided to live in the town after being permitted by the current Archduke, V0idF1sh. The three friends eventually perused different roles as the municipal government of the town. GiivaSunner became the mayor of the town who focused on development of the claim while ItzKaipple and Wardaddy focused on diplomacy internally and on an international level while practising their swordsmanship in the case of a need to defend the colony. It was also during this time Wardaddy became much more known on the international level.

While all seemed well, the citizens of Nathria (former colony of the Archduke of Azuria) felt that they were being forgotten about in important debates and unprioritized, which lead to a separatism movement to form. This eventually lead to the colony to gain independence and merge with the First Kingdom of Yuvaria, through peaceful diplomatic efforts, and formed the High Kingdom of Yunria.

A Year in Yunria
Following the merger, Majulah and Nathria began to prosper greatly and would remain an active Yuvarian city for many months under the leadership of the trio. However, after a near war with a dangerous nation causing the nation to be vassalized by Uraka, and with the change of government from a monarchy to a democracy and problems associated with the new government, Wardaddy and multiple government other government members wished to revert back to a monarchy through a coup attempt. However this attempt failed due to opposition of pro-democratic individuals.

Eventually, Wardaddy and the remaining citizens from the town of Majulah had reached the tipping point and with the approval of the interim president Benji, on March 22, 2022 Majulah successfully succeeded from Yunria and formed the Kingdom of Majulah, an independent city nation.

Old Lands, New Beginnings
Unsurprising even after the independence of the city, the town's population had completely diminished leaving the city practically a ghost town, a far cry from its time only months prior. Wardaddy and Majulah's remaining citizens made attempts to recruit players to revive the small nation, even adapting to political isolationism to help attract attention, but eventually even the few towns remaining citizens left to become wanderers and the city's last king, Wardaddy, decided to venture out into the far unknown lands of Eldham and eventually Rathnir, who became a successful mercenary through wars and even founded the mercenary nation of Paragon a powerful nation that still stands strong today.

After establishing Paragon and achieving many goals as a mercenary, Majulah's ruler decided to return to Majulah for one last time to declare Subvert Dumeur as his successor, who was later officially crowned as the second monarch of Majulah on November 8, 2022. For the first time in months, the small nation finally began to show life again, seeing an increase in activity and new faces around the city.

Geography
Majulah is located in the north east of Eldham, in the Valresh continent. It shares a terrestrial border north with The Free City of Wilmund, east it shares a terrestrial border with the Kingdom of Drackar, south it shares a terrestrial border with Mushroomicania, and shares a western water border with the Republic of Helsia.

Most of Majulah's land east consists of sand and cactus while the rest of the western land are hilly grasslands. A construction project is undergoing in order to increase and eventually demolish the desert land in favour of more hilly grasslands in order to allow expansion of buildings.

Government
The government of the Kingdom of Majulah is currently made up of 3 positions, those being the King, the Advisors to the King, and the Ministers who focus on individual problems assigned to them.

City Architecture
Majulah possesses a special architecture that is much unique from most towns who usually have styles based on medieval, desert style buildings, or other common building styles, which the Majulalain people pride themselves in. Majulah's architecture is based on real life Eastern Asian architecture, but also has some other European influences alongside it as well, possibly from a result of the original city having a different influence of style before the founders arrived. This style of architecture is made up of many types and variants of blocks ranging from warped logs to stone brick blocks that it makes it difficult to visual its style from only a few words in a sentence.
