    Eruowood is a Commonwealth Realm located in the northern Eriksonian Islands.

History[]

1602-1771: Early British settlements[]

The first British settlement in modern-day Eruowood was formed in 1602. However, until 1771, it was administered first from England, and later from modern-day Canada.

1771-1863: New North Scotland[]

In 1771, Eruowood was spun off from British Newfoundland, and gained its first local colonial government as the Colony of New North Scotland. After the United States was formed, they claimed New North Scotland as part of the State of Georgia, but the UK still claimed it as part of the British West Indies. (This was similar to the later "Pig War" over the San Juan Islands.)

1863-1960: Anglo-American Eruowood[]

In 1863, the United Kingdom and United States agreed to form a condominium over Eruowood.

1960-present: Commonwealth of Eruowood[]

On July 2, 1960, Eruowood gained its independence from the United States and United Kingdom.

Etymology[]

The word “Eruowood” derives from "Erikson" (as in Leif Erikson), the native Ruoan people, and the redwood forests of central Eruowood.

An outdated term is "Nokiette", which is derived from "North Kittenolivia", with the French diminutive suffix -ette. This term has not been used since the end of the U.S. Civil War, and is usually considered anachronistic when used today.
