The '''Serene Realm of the Oan Isles''' ([[Wikipedia:Maori language|Oan]]: ''Te Rohe Rangamarie a te Motuere Oa''; [[Wikipedia:IPA|phonetic]]: /ˈoʊɪn/, also known simply as '''The Oan Isles''') is an independent island nation. It consists of two parts. The Home Islands are surrounded by the Polynesian Sea and the [[Morstaybishlian
Ahua the Great established the Oan Isles in 1000 CE (according to the Oan calendar this is the first year of the period AU or After Unification). He converted to [[Thaerism]] and declared it the official and only permissible religion of his realm. He spread his realm from the island of Tokamotu, over which he had been King, to surrounding islands and declared himself the [[Rangitanga-a-te-Moana]] (Ruler of the Sea). Folk religions were persecuted and their adherents fled to the Strathepolic Islands in the [[Morstaybishlian Sea]] and [[Caven Sea]]. They gave rise to the Jus and Kohatu people who continue to live there to this day. Ahua the Great's successors continued to expand the territory of the Oan Isles. After the first century AU the country fell into instability as monarchs died quickly upon assuming the throne due to wars and assassinations.

Under Aotearoa the Great, the country established settler colonies in the Strathepolic Islands and integrated them into its territory, vastly expanding the size of the Oan Isles. Civil War led to the loss of the territory and the establishment of smaller Kingdoms that were eventually conquered by the [[Great Morstaybishlia]] in 1604. Following the unilateral revocation of a treaty that the Oan Isles believed was unfair by Kipiri II, Great Morstaybishlia invaded the Oan Isles and the country lost a third of its territory in a conflict that is today known as the First Morsto-Oan War. Further, the war kickstarted the Oan Slave Trade. Nevertheless the slave trade excluded citizens of what remained of the Oan Isles. In the 1800s, an illegal trade of free Oan citizens was started through a clandestine agreement between Lord Admiral Lusegart of Morstaybishlia and Chief Toamu of Wakatunuye. Upon discovering the act, the Oan Isles attacked a Morstaybishlian ship triggering the [[Second Morsto-Oan War]]. Although the Oan Isles lost another portion of its territory, Oan Slave Trade was abolished in Great Morstaybishlia.
Angry about the handling of the crisis by his father Tamatea II, [[Rangitake the Great]] overthrew him and began modernizing the Oan Isles including establishing the first universities and central bank. His son, Mikaere III continued these reforms and began democratizing the Oan Isles. The country still retains an amended form of the Constitution that he passed during his reign. During the [[Great War]], the Oan Isles remained neutral and grew wealthy from weapons exports and financial interlinkage. The country remained neutral in the [[Auroran Imperial War]]. The Oan Isles was thrust into international conflict following the assassination of [[Prince Thadeus, Duke of Horkalo]], and the invasion of [[Yor]] by the Greater Ethalrian Empire. The Oan Isles joined the Allied forces in the 2017 [[Auroran-
The country is a high-income post-industrial economy administered through free-market socialism that has a nominal GDP of over 785 billion [[Kirib|KRB]] (the [[Economy of the UNAC|8th largest in the UNAC]] as of 2021). It is a world leader in information and communication technology (being the seat of [[Cafe Net]] and [[Metatron Corporation|Metatron]], some of the largest corporations by market capitalisation in Aurora, among others), and has large banking and tourism sectors. Its capital, [[Tokapa]] is the seat of the [[Auroran Monetary Fund]]. Its government takes place as a unitary parliamentary democracy under a constitutional monarchy. The House of Ahua is one of the oldest monarchies in the world and presides over a highly democratic government, that ranks highly in metrics of governance, economic and political freedoms among world nations. It has enjoyed enduring political stability and economic stability for decades.
== Etymology ==
The name "The Oan Isles" is "Nga Motuere Oa" in the Oan language. The root of this name is "Oa" which means "Heaven". This name originated around 1000 CE during the time of Ahua the Great. At the time, the Oan Isles consisted of citystates ruled by warlords. In a legend, it is believed that Ahua the Great received a vision from Maui, the folk deity of the wind and sea, to unite all the people who live on the islands which compose the contemporary Oan Isles and Morstaybishlian
Thus, the demonym (meaning the adjective for people and things originating from the Oan Isles) is Oan (the plural of which is Oans). The formal abbreviation for the country is OAN. But it may be informally abbreviated as TOI. The long form of the country’s name is "The Serene Realm of the Oan Isles" ("Te Rohe Rangamarie o Nga Motuere Oa"). The Serene Realm part is a quote from Maui as he said that "your land and people will be blessed, enjoying eternal tranquility". Thus, when long form names became fashionable, the long form was given as "Serene Realm" and has remained for nearly 1000 years.

===Unification===
By 1000 CE, there were approximately 30 to 40 different polities that in that area that comprises the Oan Isles and the Morstaybishlian
He continued the work of his father and expanded their sphere of influence. In 987, on his conquest of Koroimotu, he met Thaerist. Believing they were heathens, he persecuted them and purged Thaerism from his realms. In 992 CE, he had a traumatic emotional experience at high seas following a defeat in battle that led to him seeing visions including believing that he a bird telling him to convert to Thaerism and unite the South West
Reluctantly and gradually, he sought out Thaerist teachers, culminating in his conversion in 998 CE. He proclaimed himself the chosen Prophet of the Creator and spiritual successor to Prophet Matilda in the West
The introduction of Thaerism and the persecution of traditional folk religions, drove arden adherents to seek a better life elsewhere. Thus, South West

His teachings lived on and gained the support of a considerable class of nobles, priests and members of the royal court such that in 1312 CE, an assembly of over 1,000 prominent persons was held on Manaakitangamotu to call for the acceptance of the teachings of Pouhinga as doctrine. This resulted in a civil war between the Mauists and the Thaerists. In 1321, the Mauists won. They forced the Thaerist Rangitanga-a-te-Moana, Ihone II to abdicate in favour of his infant son, Ihone III who would be raised as a Mauist. A Mauist Regent, Prince Repahe, reigned and declared Mauism as the official religion and sought recognition from mainland Thaerists.
There were differing opinions to the extent that two conflicting bulls were issued that remain contested to this day. Traditional Thaerism was persecuted and pushed out in favour of Mauism. The rise of Mauism led to missionaries from the Oan Isles going to the Strathepole Archipelago to proliferate its message. The people in these islands having cultivated unique identities such as the Jùs of

The decision was ratified by the Council of State and his son was crowned Iano III in 1442. The Council of State resolved to established a national library responsible for maintaining precise and accurate records of all royal lineages with copies available in three other parts of the country. This led to the system of public registration where the birth, death, marriage and other important details of all individuals in the realm were stored in Tokamotu and other islands for safe keeping.
===Strathepolic Expansion===
In 1501, Aotearoa the Great became the Rangitanga-a-te-Moana. He began expanding the territory of the Oan Isles beyond the South West
In 1503, the first Oan sailors reached the island of

The islands became a free for all where strong men grabbed territory for themselves. The chaos and disorder led to the destruction of the institutions that the Oan government had erected there. The islands became a hive of criminal activity including piracy. With their maritime trade being disrupted by pirates and criminals fleeing from Justice, surrounding nations decided to act. Thus, in 1604, the Kingdom of Morstaybishlia invaded and annexed

In 26 May 2017, the Al Jaheed attacked Yor and hacked Cafe Net servers in La Rochelle. They virtually shut down the Cafe Net system for much of the world. The scope and impact of the attack led to general alarm about the Al Jaheed's technical expertise, resources and ability to inflict serious damage on Oan interest. On the same day, the Al Jaheed bombed a part of the National Security Service headquarters. Although the damage was quickly repaired, it led to a desire to engage more aggressively with the Al Jaheed. On May 27, 2017, Emperor, Ehe, received the Blue Medal from Kuthernburg on behalf of the brave actions of the Oan armed forces.

On June 11,
The Oans undertook a diplomatic assault on Stratarin to isolate and weaken them. On June 12, 2017, the Oan Isles imposed sanctions on Stratarin. When asked for reasons for this action, the Oan Isles cited the alleged coup d'etat, the relegation of SEPC laws and other reasons, and imposed further conditions on Stratarin. These were deflected by the Stratarians. The diplomatic tensions culminated in the resignation of Fyodr Lyvov, Minister for Foreign Affairs for Stratarin two days later. Tretrid supported the Oan demands.
On June 18, 2017, Ehe I (also known as Ese Ulua) called the leaders of four Atlantian countries to a meeting in La Rochelle to ask for assistance for the war. Mister Leader II of Mexregiona, Bartholomew Smith of Tretrid, King Calvin I of the Atlae Isles and Queen Naomi II of Kuthernburg attended and resolved to lend help. Monoherra Markka IV of Asian
Another war erupted in Atlantia when various rogue states and former members of the Atlae Isles attempted to cede from the country and join sides with the Axis powers. Only Kuthernburg was eventually able to lend a hand. On 24 June, 2017, an Oan task force was sent to assist Kostoria-Obertonia. On the next day, troops were flown into North Yor as part of an assault to reclaim the islands from the Republican Ethalrian Republic.

The Oan Isles was bitter that despite the Allied victory over the Axis powers, [[Ethalria (Republic)|Republican Ethalria]] was not punished. The Oan government felt that the Auroran Continental Assembly had lost its legitimacy and usefulness. It invited Allied countries to a conference in Sani Bursil to form the Auroran Union,<ref>Rahua, Tipene. 2017. ''Conference on the Auroran Union''. https://forum.theeastpacific.com/auroran-union-t3513.html#p186617</ref> a short-lived political, economic and military alliance among Allied states of Aurora. The United Kingdom, Tivot, Tuvaltastan, Blueacia and the Yor Isles agreed to the invitation while Axdel and Emberwood Coast had their apprehensions.
Mass protests from university student-led organisations convinced many Allied countries to view the new alliance in a negative light. They felt that the Auroran Union would entrench post-War divisions and diminish the ability for the Allies to maintain peace throughout out the continent. Moreover the new Union would disrupt free trade,

Unfortunately, Republican Ethalria was still not punished, but the political leadership of the Oan Isles believed that Pan-Auroran political thought could still be useful in preventing future wars.

The Oan Isles has an average height above sea level of 675 meters (2214.57 feet). The lowest point is sea level. The height here is 0 metres above sea level. The highest point is Te Toka at 1,385 metres (4543.963 feet) above sea level. Most islands are topographically similar. The largest body of fresh water is Te Puru-makariri papatahi. It has a surface area of 340km² (131.275 mi²). The longest river is Te Tarakona-tere. It is 178 kilometres (110.604 miles) long. The biggest island is Tokamotu (the Isle of the Rock). The Oan Isles has a monsoon jungle climate. It rains for much of the year. It is humid. It is generally warm. This stems from its proximity to the Aequator. It is classified as a tropical monsoon jungle climate. Precipitation averages above 60mm, although it is higher in the monsoon season and lower in the drier months of the year. Extreme weather is not uncommon. Cyclones sometimes occur. For example, Cyclone Mable tore through the area in 2017, causing damage to infrastructure and death to livestock.

With the [[History of the Oan Isles#Mauist Schism|Mauist Schism]] in the 12th century CE (2nd century AU) , the aristocrats played a greater role in advising the Rangitanga-a-te-Moana on governance as well as overseeing local and community affairs. The [[History of the Oan Isles#Strathepolic Expansion|expansion of the country under Aotearoa the Great]] led to the need for boards and offices to administer power from the Home Islands giving rise to a formal bureaucratic system. Losing the Strathepole Islands gave rise to a more centralised decision-making process including the creation of provinces governed by direct representatives of the Crown. The First Morsto-Oan War led to the formation of standing militias ready for combat in each province. The [[Second Morsto-Oan War]] led to the formation of the military, the modernisation of governance including the formation of the Council of the People as an elected advisory body.
[[Mikaere III]] passed the Constitution of the Oan Isles (''Kaupapa Ture o Nga Motuere Oa'') in 1907 which distributed law making powers between the [[Rangitanga-a-te-Moana]], Council of the People and the Council of Chiefs and executive power between the Council of Ministers and the Rangitanga-a-te-Moana. Through amendments after the Great War, the Council of the People gained full control of legislative power and the Prime Minister became the effective ruler of the country. During the [[Auroran-
===Government===
Line 244 ⟶ 243:
The Constitution vests the power to make laws in the Crown as well as the National Assembly. The National Assembly consists of the Council of the People and the Council of Chiefs. Despite being the nominally lower house, the Council of the People wields all the real legislative power including to pass a vote of no-confidence in the Council of Ministers, to approve the annual budget and other appropriations legislation, to amend the Constitution and to hold politicians accountable through legislative inquiries. It is elected every 4 years unless an early dissolution arises due to the Prime Minister advising the Rangitanga-a-te-Moana to dissolve the Council of the People or due to à self-imposed dissolution by a majority of its members.
The Rangitanga-a-te-Moana and the Council of Chiefs comprise the ceremonial part of the legislature. Even though the Council of Chiefs is the nominally upper house, it has no political power except to pass non-binding resolutions and deliberate on political and legislative matters. It consists of aristocrats recognised in the Oan [[Peerage of the Oan Isles|system of titles]] from the Oan Isles, [[Kohatu Isles]] or the [[Morstaybishlian

The Prime Minister oversees foreign relations. He is advised on foreign policy by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, currently [[Arana Marama]]. The ''Rangitanga-a-te-Moana'' receives the accreditations of foreign ambassadors and has symbolic precedence over all Oan officials in diplomatic protocol. Faced with a lack of natural resources, the threat of invasion and economic competition from other nations, the country adopted multilateralism and pacifism in the latter half of the 20th century. This policy was supplanted by strategic interventionism, expansionism and selective allegiance in 2017. The nation's foreign policy focuses on building alliances with and defending the shared interests of capitalist democratic monarchies. Historically Oan royalty has used strategic marriages to foreign powers to strengthen its global position, for instance the marriage of former ''Rangitanga-a-te-Moana'' Ehe II to Princess Eleanor of Staynes.

The [[Military of the Oan Isles|Oan Defence Forces]] (''Nga Ope Taua Huihui o Nga Moutere Oa'') comprises the military of the Oan Isles. As the ''Rangitanga-a-te-Moana'' is the commander in chief of the armed forces, he has the power to declare war. In practice, the Prime Minister has supreme political oversight of the armed forces. The Minister of Defence, General [[Oahuoa Uye]], advises the government on defence policy and runs the Department of Defence. The Department of Defence administers the daily affairs of the armed forces. The Chief of Defence Staff is the highest ranking professional officer of the armed forces. The primary objective of the armed forces is to protect the Oan Isles and its allies and advance their interests abroad. It consists of the Oan Navy, the Oan Air Force and the Oan Army.
The country spends 35 billion KRB on defence. 5 billion KRB of this amount is military aid from Great Morstaybishlia. The remaining 30 billion KRB comes from the country’s budget and makes up 3.8% of annual GDP. The country has a total manpower of 559,500 soldiers, but the professional volunteer full-time military consists of 186,500 officers (1% of the population) and a reserve force of 373,000 reservists (2% of the population). The country has an innovative and internationally reputable domestic arms manufacturing industry. It imports weapons from Great Morstaybishlia and Kuthernburg and formerly imported weapons from Stratarin. As an island nation, it has invested in its navy to protect its territory and project power. With the ability to carry out combat at high sea in surrounding oceans in more than one threatre at once, it is considered a green-water naval power.
