Atrunia

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

Pre-colonial period
For most of it's history, the islands of Atrunia would be rural rice-farming dynasties isolated from the rest of the world.

Colonial period: 1891-1945
The colonial period of Atrunia would begin in 1891, when the Empire of Japan found the islands and begin a colonization campaign. By 1915, all of the islands of Atrunia would be conquered by Japan, and the Atruni people were treated horribly under the imperial regime, until Japan surrendered in 1945 and became occupied by the USA.

1945-1949: American occupation
After WW2 ended, America began to occupy the islands, and American influence spread across Atrunia. Eventually, in 1949, they would gain independence.

1949-present: Modern era
After gaining independence, Atrunia has shown to be possibly one of the most successful nations in East Asia. Atrunia has shown to have very strong diplomatic and trade relations with South Korea, Japan, and the USA. Atrunia has built a huge electronics and entertainment industry over time.
