	Rauratoshan began as a simple base on an island served by the [[Cenrail]] Coastal Line. [[Fin]] of the [[Port of Eras]] helped Astaryuu build a stop for the base, which came to be known as [[Remulapola]].

	Almost immediately afterward, [[BurnedCharizard\|Jamie Dragin]] joined as well, and established [[Elemental City]]. The main rail of Rauratoshan, the [[RTS Loop]], was finished by them in December.

	In-universe, Rauratoshan appeared in [[Nguhcraft]] in 2013 AD (Kanata 88, 2426 MK on the [[Rokaselan calendar]]), an event known as the [[Spectradom Incursion]]. It has a significant amount of history from before this point, but this is not entirely relevant to Nguhcraft.

	Soon afterward, the organization responsible rebranded as the [[Madness Multiverse ~~Missionary~~]]. Meanwhile, the nobility were panicking because the entirety of the king's family had vanished. In a quick power play, one Lord Kirlan Mohito (a cousin of the former king Azbin) installed a recent offworlder, {{galaxysys\|Nozomi}}, in the role of quing regent. Several other houses, notably [[Preservation Party of Rauratoshan\|House Randa]], were not fans. However, House Mohito ''did'' have the crown beforehand, so this was allowed to continue.

	Rauratoshan has had mixed interactions with other ŋations. Rauratoshan began a policy of locking all chests which aren't public following the [[Great Chest Locking]], even though they were not directly stolen from. They tried to help multiple [[Amujology\|Amujs]], but failed to help any of them remain stable. Relations started strong with [[Coldba (Cuba)]] and the [[Port of Eras]], but grew more negative as the Port of Eras went on a very long hiatus, until the [[Ŋafrican Ŋapocalypse]]. That being said, Astaryuu feels very bittersweet about it all, and designed [[Irisela Castle]] based on a castle they found in evermore Era. Relations with Coldba (Cuba) remain up in the air.

	Rauratoshan has plans to help produce the [[Nguhlympics]], in the absence of its former lead developer. They built a stadium, the [[Stellar Arena]], for this exact purpose.

	At the time of the Rauratoshanian incursion, Rauratoshan was an absolute monarchy, though its monarch at the time died in the process, and no heirs were transferred either, so a new dynasty was required. While the official English translation for the ruling monarch is "[[Quing]] Regent", Rokadong documentation uses the gendered terms "king regent" and "queen regent" in addition to "quing regent".

	The Rauratoshanian royal banner is the form of the Rauratoshanian flag presented ingame. The white chevron and spiral represent the sun and the land; the sun is said to be bathing the land in light, while the people on the land (the Rauratoshanians) are striving for the sun. The black stripe represents the work of the people, or more loosely, their blood. The pale blue stripes on either side represent the crown, who supports the people in turn.

The black stripe represents the work of the people, or more loosely, their blood. The pale blue stripes on either side represent the crown, who supports the people in turn.

	The flag of Rauratoshan is ~~similar~~, but with a horizontal aspect ratio and with the singular white chevron replaced with a trio of teal spikes with lines on either side. This more closely resembles the island chain that it is meant to represent.		The flag of Rauratoshan is based on the banner, but with a horizontal aspect ratio and with the singular white chevron replaced with a trio of teal spikes with lines on either side. This more closely resembles the island chain that it is meant to represent. The sun symbol is not as loopy compared to the banner version, however, it more prominently resembles the ''gundariraza'', or sun's corona, which is a common symbol for royalty in Rokasela.

	There are also unofficial banners based on the royal banner of Rauratoshan, usually used for decoration. These generally keep the same design as the royal flag, but change the colors or the emblem. For example, the Rauratoshan embassy in [[Chillvana]] is decorated with two banners which use the same design as the royal banner, but with a darker blue and red replacing black, to match the flag of [[Coldba (Cuba)]]. Officially, the [[Multiverse Madness Missionary]]'s Office of War is decorated with a communist version of the royal flag, with a hammer and sickle replacing the stylized sun and red replacing pale blue. However, there is no hammer-and-sickle banner pattern in Nguhcraft, so the breeze pattern is used instead.

	~~The flag of Rauratoshan is based on the banner. However, the mountains are more complex, and drawn as a "pine green" instead of white, and the sun symbol is simplified compared to the banner version.~~
