Omari Robusuta

Omari Robusuta is a feudal empire occupying a string of islands east of Borealis and north of Alituria.

Ancient
Omāri Robusutā has since time immemorial been a feudal society ruled by the Emperor, with his ministers, then the nobles, then local warlords or Samurai, with peasants below that, then artisans and blacksmiths, and.

The emperors trace themselves back to the first emperor, around 2,600 years ago, who is said to have been the child of the Great Red Crab (roughly parallel to Great Nephrops in Humerland).

Throughout history, there have been numerous civil wars, mainly to do with warring parties of warlords wishing for more land and peasants. One of the most major was the War of the Onion, which started over a simple debate as to how onions should be cooked, and ended in the sack of several cities, including the then capital Kotyō, and the forced abdication of the emperor.

Modern
Located in the Hinshō sea to the east of the continent, it has for centuries adopted a policy of isolationism, minding its own affairs and not being involved in world politics. Recently however, it has started to involve itself in international affairs. This started with the Humerland government parking a gunboat in Omārishuto Bay and demanding diplomatic relations, as well as alliance, supplies of zinc and copper, and exclusive trading rights, in exchange for assistance in modernising the nation. Recently this has relaxed somewhat.

Humerland has supplied Omāri Robusutā with a navy, including protected cruisers, torpedo boats, and, recently, two pre-dreadnought battleships.

Great Samurai Rebellion of 1903
A recent affair was also the attempt to abolish the Samurai order. This led to the rebellion of a large number of Samurai, and cost the ION around 1,500 troops to suppress.

Attempts at Expansion
Also of note was the recent attempted invasion of North Alituria. A sizeable expeditionary force was created, with naval fire support for the invasion. The army was arrested by the WCC upon landing, and made to pay damages to the Aliturians.

It has also expanded into the islands of the Orientalis Ocean.

Currently tensions between Haluria and Omāri Robusutā are high, due to their proximity and navies.
