History
In 2000 BC, Austronesians in Dankia discover an island near them. They named it "Tamatirigyahi".

They form their own empire in 100 BC, known as the Tamatiri Empire, which took a large amount of land, including Vietnam, Hong Kong, and Palawan. Their religion was Animism.

After the arrival of Buddhism in the 8th century, the Ekadwipa (Sanskrit for one island) dynasty was formed. It was a prosperous Buddhist kingdom.

Ekadwipa dynasty survived well for centuries, until the arrival of the Dutch in the 16th century. They invaded Ekadwipa and named it 'Tamateer', which originated from 'Tamatirigyahi'. Christianity was introduced and only a few people converted.

In 1800, the United Kingdom annexed Tamateer and renamed it to Tamasia. Many Brits immigrated to the island, which worried the Tamasians, who thought that the Brits would take over their island.

During World War II, the Tamasians joined the Axis Powers, but were annexed by Japan. After Japan's surrender, Britain hold an independence referendum. 89% of the voters were in favor of independence.

In January 1, 1946, Tamasia declared independence as the Republic of Tamasia. Later, the country was plagued by a 2-decade long civil war. Many people opposed and blamed the democratic government for corruption, poverty, and high unemployment rate.

The Communist Party of Tamasia won in May 20, 1967 and established a Marxist-Leninist state. It sided with the USSR and opposed its neighbors.

Tamasia started to claim Mindoro, Palawan, and other islands owned by the Philippines in 1970, claiming that they were originally part of Tamasia during the ancient times. The claim still exists until today.

After the fall of the Soviet Union, Tamasia highly stagnated and started to trade with the United States and other non-socialist states.
