Kumura

The Flowerlands of Kumura, Kingdom of Kumura, and Sena Kumura is a small state within the Federation of Southern Stars or FSS. Kumura was founded on 07/10/22 by Dubos Rokolim. with the creation of Lya_Imzu. Most of Kumura is on the Lya_Imzu peninsula. Kumura now has 3 towns being Lya_Imzu the capital, Skyu a small village off the cost of Lya_Imzu and  Valgova.

Early History
In the early days of Kumuras history it was raided and attacked quite a bit of times. By its western neighbor Sotrania. This culminated in the Kumuran-Sotranian battles and the Sotranian attacks on Kumura. This also lead to very close ties with the Kingdom of Glanra who also seemed to have hostile relations with Sotrania.

Early Expansion
Kumura which at this point had only been confined to create homes underground with a few buildings on the surface was able to construct a man made peninsula which will later be called Henosa. Then on   7/24/2022 Kumura bought the northern part of Lya_Imzu from Oceanum for   $100,000 after this Kumura would not expand for some time.

Aturna Dispute
For a long time Kumura had wished for a second town and with Aturna it almost got it. Aturna was built as a large island just north of Lya_Imzu however as soon as it was built Oceanum told Kumura that large parts of the claim were in Oceanum land. So Kumura removed the claim.

Vassalage under Vanshire
On November 12th Kumura would be become a vassal of Vanshire for 157,000 coins. Life in Kumura under Vanshire would continue as normal. Vanshire would have no real impact on Kumuran politics or culture during their time owning Kumura.

Joining the Federation of Southern Stars
On the first of January Nova Azcoria and Oceanum would merge into Southern Stars. Then on 1/17/2022 Kumura would leave Vanshiren vassalage and join the Southern Stars as a state. With a ceremony at the capital were the treaty would be signed. Following Kumura's entry into the Southern Stars it was granted the town of Valgova known as Judako or New Kaltaria to the Glanrans ( it was the former capital of Glanra) and the island of Qoki.

Valgova dispute
The town of Valgova used to be the capital of Glanra Kumuras old ally. When it was a glanran town it was known as New Kaltaria. The dispute began when Void Voltaris sold the island to the FSS. Skorm Voltaris quickly disputed this purchase as illegal. Then when Kumura got hold of the island and renamed it to Judako. The Glanrans began saying it was breaking the Nap between FSS and Glanra under the clause that no party shall cultural cleanse another. The Glanrans argued that renaming it was breaking the clause. Then the federal goverment of the FSS said that Kumura did nothing wrong. By now Commanderjake04 made a newspaper that showed many graphs showing 85% of Glanrans if they could would support a crusade against FSS. Fights between Kumurans and Glanrans boiled over when Jom   went to the Glanran capital and killed 1 glanran. After that Dubos Rokalim announced to Glanra that if they insulted Kumura again they would blow up a glanran building in Judako now Valgova.

During the Coalition Zerronic War Kumura was fast to help its then ally Glanra. Although Kumura joined the war Kumura didn't do much more then voice their support for the Coalition. =====

Culture
Kumuran culture is very close with that of Pasifa' s due to Kumurans originating from Pasifa . So just like Pasifa kumura's culture was Vlonsi and so was the religion with Kumura having Tekora as the state religion. Kumuran culture is mainly focused on language and building rather then other aspects of culture.

Languags
The official and largest language in Kumura is Kumurani. Kumurani is a direct descendant of Vlonsi. It is said and know that when the Kumurans lived underground they lost many phrases and words of Vlonsi. So because of this Kumurani words are quite different from any other Andlirian language. Kumurani is also know as kumurani vlonsi or just simply Vlonsi. However kumurani is very different from Vlonsi spoken in Gunji Kinjura and Pasifa.

Media
Historically Kumurani has only had one media source and that being the kumuran Newspaper Kumura Times. As of modern times the other media source of kumurans is the Southern Stars weekly and another newspaper from Batu.

Traditional Architecture
Kumuran architecture is unique in that unlike anywhere else in Eldham it is mainly a 7*5 wooden floor with Kelp walls. although some might be dug out underground.
