Atrunia

The Democratic Republic of Atrunia, or simply Atrunia, is a nation comprised of islands in the Sea of Japan, between the Koreas and Japan.

Precolonial Era (-1678)
The first humans arrived on Atrunia around the Ice Age when there was a land bridge connected the islands with mainland Asia. Around 1200 BC, the first tribes in Atrunia were established.

Qing Era (1678-1860)
Eventually the Qing Dynasty would colonize the islands and they destroyed the multiple tribes that lived in Atrunia, and they would be assimilated into Chinese culture.

British Colonial Rule (1860-1901)
After the defeat of the Chinese in the Second Opium War, the islands of Atrunia became British colonies and British Atrunia was founded. Segregation laws were put in place between the British and the Atrunians. Atrunia also became a major source of pineapple and banana farms made with cheap labor. Most of the Atruni people were converted to Christianity and became "civilized" at this time.

Atruni Revolution (1901)
Over the years, discontent from the Atruni population was growing due to British colonial rule and the segregation laws. Eventually, multiple anti-colonial rebel groups formed to create the Atruni Front. The war began when a member of the Atruni Front assassinated General Axel Price. The assassin was found to be a member of the organization and war broke out. Eventually, the Battle of Portika in the capital would begin and the British forces were overwhelmed and the capital was taken by the rebels. The Treaty of Portika was signed and all of Atrunia became independent as the First Atruni Republic.

First Atruni Republic (1901-1923)
The First Atruni Republic was founded and a new republican government was founded with a constitution. The republic only existed for 22 years until the Japanese invaded.

Japanese Colonial Rule (1923-1945)
The Empire of Japan arrived in Atrunia in 1923 and began to invade the nation. The invasion ended with the Mankume Massacre, where 300 thousand people died in the aftermath and the First Atruni Republic surrendered and Japan subjugated the nation. During this time, the Atruni people were treated horribly and many were placed in ghettos and concentration camps. Japanese colonial rule would end in 1945 when WW2 ended.

American Occupation (1945-1952)
Like the rest of Japan, Atrunia was occupied by the United States. The USA had a large cultural influence over the islands, especially the capital, Portika.

Contemporary history (1952-present)
Following the Treaty of San Francisco, Atrunia became independent as the Democratic Republic of Atrunia, with Portika as it's capital. The first election was held on December 3, 1952, with Kaisan Kai of the National Party being elected as president. In the 1970's the economy boomed and Atrunia became a first world country. In the 1980s
