West Pua, officially known as the People's Floracracy of Pua, is a country located south of Xarslasja, north of Amuj, east of Murbetia (disbanded) and west of East Pua.
Prehistory
The Blossomic Empire of Pua was an absolute monarchy encompassing the entirety of the Pua region in the continent of Thasusa. Due to extensive corruption in the government and the people’s dissatisfaction, the citizens of Pua revolted against the king, and he was forced to vacate the throne. A coup following the sudden disappearance of the Puan king preempted violent clashes over who should lead the country, giving rise to the Puan Civil war.
History
Independence
After the Puan King was forced to step down, there was heavy controversy over who should fill the position. The two leading factions were unable to agree on how to run their country, and it caused them to split into two separate countries, West and East Pua. The primary reason for the disagreements was because of differences in the religious views of the floral gods, and the West Puans refused to worship a false idol. The third largest faction, a nonconformist group called the Pihitians, also rose.The East Puans in an attempt to cleave unto their control of the Pihitian territories made the false claim that both the East Puan Cornflower and the Pihitian Oxeye Daisy are better than the West Puan Allium.
The Scramble for Murbetia
On August 22, 2024, the country of Murbetia Dissolved, granting West Pua the opportunity to claim the Western chunk of Scarecrow Harbor. This was cause for celebration among the West Puans, as we had finally secured the piece of our mainland that was missing for so long.
Unfortunately, the East Puans took advantage of the Scramble, and annexed ridiculous amounts of land to their Eastern border. The resulting power imbalance had many West Puans worried about the ever-increasing East Puan threat.
While all this was happening, Coldba (Cuba) claimed a majority of the Murbetian mainland, as well as several surrounding islands. One of the islands mistakenly claimed was West Pua’s Plus One Island, and it was promptly sold to Xarslasja along with Xar Harbor for 1 Slab. West Pua, rather than be angry with their loss of land, took this as an opportunity to strengthen ties with Xarslasja, and proposed a trade – Xarslasja gets Plus One Island, and we get the Island of Peoria, but both countries keep their water borders. Xarslasja accepted, and the trade was made official on August 24, 2024. When the trade was completed, both Islands names were changed, Plus One Island being renamed to “Bar Harbor” and Peoria being renamed to "Puoria".
