'''Hvaloaszna''', officially the '''Akuan Federal Republic of Hvaloaszna''' is a country on far-west [[Yasteria]] and the island chain is located in [[Rotantic Ocean]]. The country is made up of three islands, which distinct culture due to his history of colonization by the Borean Trading Company (Z'rei), [[Norgsveldet]] and [[Vistaraland]]. [[Vistari Kabeiland|Vistari colonization in Kabeiland]] - the easternmost island of modern day Hvaloaszna, has been suggested by experts as the most environmentally destructive due to measures taken to maximize the extraction of natural resources. Such policies, which continue to affect the region's ecology today, coincided with the seizing of land and cultural artefacts - marking what some experts refer to as a cultural genocide far more severe than the later [[Akuan Atrocities]] undertaken by Norgsveltian officals in the 20th century. Hvaloaszna's official language is [[Nys'tat'en]] at a federal level, with the recognized national languages of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwegian_language Norgsveltian] on the most western island, as well as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_language Vistarian] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maltese_language Vorpestian] in Kabeiland. The largest cities being spread across the Western and Central island, with a majority of the Eastern island being more rural. |

Later [[Norgsveldet]] outright buying ownership of the other two islands and later annexed the Norgsveltian Borean Trading Company in 1750. The isles was renamed to Hvaloaszna due a mistranslation by a Norgsveltian officer, and the colony was designated for exploitation rather than transitioning towards a settler colony. After the [[Akuan Atrocities]], the colony was granted independence in a rapid fashion, leading to a period of administrative confusion. |

The Norgsveltian Borean Trade Company was the second of the major companies to venture into Hvaloazna in 1650, though was least successful among the three as most of its attention was placed into building up their gains in modern day Rikevaarland. It was heavily dependent on the Imperial Realms Navy to force the Confederation to give concessions to the Company, mainly in the aspect of getting trade access to western island and to allow its ports for Norgsveltian navy’s usage. By the 1670s Norgsveltian Borean Trade Company had full control of the island, in all but name. But was dependent on the Norgsveltian monarch to keep hold of it. |

The Vistari Colonial Company arrived on the eastern island in 1651, overtaking strategic ports in order to monopolize exports. While the colony was nominally successful, overtaking a large portion of the island, it was notably only a passing interest for the VCC in comparison to the far more successful Concordian triangular trade. After several geological and botany surveys of the colony, it was deduced that the island was incredibly deficient in resources, lacking any notable mineral deposits. Vorpestian labour previously sent over to cultivate the land was partially sent back after a few years, facing minimal returns due to the low soil fertility. Following a few years of unprofitability, it was decided that seizing goods from the locals was necessary to recuperate the losses. The VCC collected a number of historical and religious artifacts, selling them to the highest bidder. Fishing remained as one of the few remaining profitable industries, with the VCC overfishing in a number of regions around the island. |

In the 1750s, the Norgsveltian Borean Trade Company made a move to buy out the assets from the other two competing corporations. With the Borean Trading Company suffering budget cuts due to its bloated military spending in keeping its main colony in [[Nystatiszna]]. Thus the move to sell the unprofitable colony was quick to accept the offer from the Norgsveltian Company, hoping to cut their losses and refocus efforts on primary colony. Later the offer was extended towards the VCC which they quickly accepted to leave the island for the Norgsveltian crown to deal with, having carelessly extracted the majority of its remaining wealth and sold it off more than the land was now worth. |

It was noted that NBTC, didn't send any teams to survey the other two islands, instead they relied on reports from the other two trading companies despite informing the Norgsveltian Crown other wise. Both the BTC and the VCC drastically falsified reports about the colonies. With the BTC reporting the salt mines was still in production despite the mines themselves having to be closed due to flooding at the time of the sell.

The VCC, reported on having several copper mines on the island, sending along photos from colonies in north [[Gondwana]] as well as ore samples from the colony. The VCC never explicitly said the photos or ore samples were from Hvaloaszna, nor did they imply it in their reports. When later questioned about the copper after the sale, VCC official claimed the survey report was sent by accident. This claim resulted in a heated discussion between the two companies, with the VCC claiming that the NBTC simply had buyer's remorse and expressed that all trade deals were final. |

When the NBTC questioned the BTC about the flood mines after the sell. The BTC said the mines was in operable condition when they left and suggest it was native sabotage. After a investigation, the mine was flooded for nearly two years before the sell and the BTC simply didn't remove the water due to it being to high of a cost of pumping the mine clear. The NBTC went to the BTC with this information in which the BTC official stated that all deals are final and left the meeting. |
