Uraka

The Uraki Imperium or just 'Uraka' is a massive multi-cultural Bureaucratic Imperial Monarchy located predominantly in the Eldham region of Phoros, specifically Phoros Medianus. The Uraki Imperium’s capital city is Kish.

Etymology
The name 'Uraki Imperium' finds its origin in the old country of the Uraki people, 'Uraka'. The island-city of Urak was the first city to be founded within the original borders of Uraka, and is where the name originates.

Pre-Settlement of the Isle
Deep in the mines of what is now Falkreath, Uraka, there was a group of goblin laborers. They were slaves in shackles, worked to death in extreme temperatures of scorching hot and freezing cold. One day, two goblins named Binklebottom and LymeDisease, both seen as the heads of the goblin people; were presented with an ultimatum, Join the esoteric religion of the region or burn. Having enough of their cruel treatment and constant persecution at the hands of the Slave masters the goblins begun openly revolting against their oppressors. Refusing to convert the Slavers religion declared open genocide against all goblins. The peak battle was that of Exodus: 5 goblins verse 10 Slavers. The battle if it could be called that was unbridled massacre against the goblins. The Slavers burnt and looted every goblin city they came across. As the Goblins scattered into the wind many fleeing into the ocean drowning, their names being lost history. Another group lead by Binklebottom and LymeDisease fled north to Rödinnbrok. Many of the goblins were murdered off by bandits during the exodus from canaan.

Settlement on the Isle
It took years but they finally found a small island near the shores of Alania, Osria and the Mushroom island that would soon become the Tribe of Urak. The Goblin chief, Binklebottom, was an extreme isolationist. He wanted to build a secret city under the newly settled island, however his brother LymeDisease wanted to build wonders to openly display their power. LymeDisease decided to construct a great bridge across what is now the Uraki Sea. During the construction, Rödinnbrok took notice of the bridge and offered vassal status to the Tribe of Urak. The Goblins, fearful of what may happen if they refused, joined Rödinnbrok.

Republican Era
The newly elected Akkad Neo_Aurelian, began to draft changes to the country. First, the ministers were named for each sector. Around this time the third city of Phantalia joined Uraka, it was seen as a big win for the new president and with his rising popularity and cult of personality.

The Horse War
Neo got married with LadyXade of Druk Yul. Not long after the marriage, Druk Yul was attacked, Uraka helped defend Druk Yul and they won the war (The Horse War).

The Sacking of Goldenvale/ Goldenvale Succession from Druk Yul
The Uraki army was created in response to this outbreak of conflict and soldiers became national guards with stable incomes from payment. Uraka became one of the first nation to ever pay soldiers for their service. With their first war won, new alliances created, and the formation of a stable army, Uraka was ready to enter a new age.

The Statue of the Great Religious War
Built long ago by an ancient forgotten monkey. A statue has been claimed by many religions as a deity for which to worship. Ultimately the many groups waged a bloody and grueling war over it ending with a victory in the cult of tyranism and thus the statue now holds the name Tyranigos.

Independence
Neo_Aurelian was content with being under Rödinnbrok as they gave Uraka a lot power in their territory, but the cards have already been played. In absence of the king of Stoneguard and his right hand, Vaicos took over. He first visited Osria and promised them their own nation and that they will share it with Urak. Talk about independence started and it was no other path to take. Neo visited Sarlician, the great pirate of Barbossa, as they owned half of the Osrian lands. Sarlician agreed and two out of three cities were transferred from Stoneguard/Barbossa to Urak. After that, Neo visited Sandy of Rödinnbrok with support of Barbossa and Stoneguard, Urak got their independence.

Around this time Vaicos came back to the city on his vacation. He had his plans for Uraka and it was independence.

They traveled back to the city to officially form the nation and draw borders. Vaicos took the map of the known world and a dark red crayon to draw a line and said, "This here is your nation, goodbye". With that, the nation of Uraka came into existence.

Proclamation of the Empire
"The Republic of Urak is dead, long live The Uraki Imperium."

The council of ministers held a vote within itself on abolishment of the republic to a Imperial monarchy. A vote was held people cheered on this decision as he was very popular. With that, the republic days were over.

War of the Black Flag
Surprisingly, the first big war Uraka was truly apart of after gaining its independence was a war in which they helped to defend the Pirate state of Barbossa against the Zamotz Union.

Uraka fought bravely to defend the Barbossan nation, but ultimately they were unable to turn the tides of war, which ended with a Barbossan defeat.

Consortium of Errine
Not long after the War of the Black Flag, Uraka became part of the Consortium of Errine: A confederation between the nations of Titania, Roðinnbrók, Mercury, Barbossa and Uraka. As Uraka laid in the center of the Consortium, they were the main benefactors of the closer cooperation between the nations, seeing much of the trade between the states going through its land.

The Union of many people
As Uraka was growing quickly, much like the other states of the Consortium of Errine, it was perhaps inevitable that some of the states would merge. After a diplomatic incidence, caused by a Titanian official, claiming Uraka was part of Titania. Feeling insulted, Uraka threatened to leave the newly formed Consortium. Shortly after Titanian officials noticed the Uraki outnumbered them 3 to 1 and had vast amount of capital for war material. After solving the issue, Uraka and Titania formed a union between the states forged through marriage of high ranking officials. The first of these mergers was between Uraka and Titania where Uraka absorbed the Titanian state into its wider empire. This happened on the 27th of August and since that day, every month on the 27th is celebrated as Union Day by all the peoples of Uraka. Not long after this union to appease the people of the Empire, a more fleshed out chain of command was created to ensure stability even in absence of the Emperor.

Druk Yul Annexation
As the Uraki Emperor had been married to the high councilor of Druk Yul for a while now and with the states as inseparable as their rulers they decided to merge the two into one under the banner of Uraka on the 16th of September, 2021. This Announcement was meet which shock and rebuttal. The citizens and allies of Druk Yul were not informed by said announcement of union and it angered the public at large. Though due to thier lack of strength nothing came from it. This Union would reinforce the precedent set by the Union of Uraka and Titania, showing once again the unity between the people of Uraka and their neighboring peoples.
