===Background===
[[File:CavePainting.jpg|thumb|left|A cave painting found in Santa Rosa dating back to 3rd millennium BCE]]
Very little is known where the island natives came from. No record was found of the natives until the early 1600s. Several pieces of evidence have come up in recent years supporting the evidence that the
From what can be observed, the early
It is speculated that around the early 1st millennium BCE, settlers started forming tribes with the three biggest tribes forming [[Meri laulu]], along with [[Diyu Dynasty]], and [[Kingdom of Durdneel]]. The Arcturian Islanders begun settlement in the modern-day provinces of [[Mimaropa]], [[Nada]], [[Davao]], [[San Lorenzo]] and [[Santa Monica]]. The Arcturian Islanders were primarily a fishing society with a matriarchal hierarchy leading the tribes.

===Meri Laulu's Establishment===
[[File:Haligar.jpg|thumb|right|A drawing of the Haligar at a Morst dock]]▼
In the early 1600s, Morstaybishlian [[Lambertus V|King Lambertus V]] sent a ship to establish a colony southward of [[New Calth]], a colony of the [[Ethalria|Ethalarian Empire]]. The ship sent for the mission was the Haligar, a newly constructed galleon, and was piloted by Captain Symvlad Arkots. The Haligar was manned by the 100-man crew and brought almost 40 tons of materials needed to build a proper colony. Unfortunately for King Lambertus IV and the Haligar, the Ethalarian Empire acquired information that the Morstaybishlians were vying to start a colony just south of New Calth and viewed it as a possible threat. The Ethalarian Empire, in response, sent a small fleet of Ethalarian ships to intercept the Haligar. 50 miles off the coast of New Calth, Ethalarian ships were finally able to intercept and capture Haligar’s crew, including Captain Arkots. They were given two choices to choose from: Become Ethalarian prisoners or be dropped off on an island. While most of the crew were thinking of what to choose, Captain Arkots managed to escape his bonds and attacked the Ethalarian soldiers. This inspired other crew members to escape their bonds and attack while others took over rowboats and escaped. After 30 minutes of chaotic brawls, the dust settled, it was revealed that Captain Arkots, along with 63 crewmen, managed to kill 20 Ethalarian marines before dying during the brawl while the rest fled in rowboats. The Ethalarians decided to let the escapees go and returned to New Calth. News of the Haligar’s demise would soon reach King Lambertus V and would start what would be the Battle for Luxaria.
After 5 days at sea, Deckhand Noramus Belth and the other 37 survivors of Haligar finally found an island that was suitable to take shelter in. With the little supplies and armament, they managed to bring, they established what they thought would be a temporary settlement.

Three weeks after establishing a settlement, Belth decided to explore the nearby islands for more resources. On the first island, Belth and his men found several abandoned huts constructed from coconut lumber and corn leaves. After several hours of exploring, Belth decided to explore the next island. Before reaching the next island, Belth encountered several of what looked like islander natives. The deckhand, leading his men, tried to communicate with the natives. Instead of responding with words, he was met with various kinds of objects being thrown at him, causing him and his men to hastily row away to their settlement. Deciding that the natives would soon attack them, Belth prepared for what he thought would be their demise. Three days later, to Belth’s surprise, several dozen native fishing boats came, and instead of attacking them offered them food, clothing, and even building materials. This marked the start of the strong bond between Belth’s group and the natives.

Situated below colonies of colonies of the Ethalrian Empire, [[Caltharus]], Staynnes, and [[Salovia]]; Meri Laulu bloomed economically with traders flowing in from nearby Arcturian and Auroran nations. [[Seibhu City|Seibhu]], Meri Laulu's largest settlement, bloomed with its docks constantly bustling with ships. Seibhu served as the dropoff point of cargo from merchants coming from Southern Arcturia. These cargos were usually goods that were to be sold to nearby nations like [[
