Grane Island

Grane Island is an island country in the Atlantic Ocean, residing on an island of the same name. It consists of six provinces. Grane Island's capital is the aptly named Capital City, next to the island's tallest mountain, Mount Mono. Grane Island's currency is the Grane Island Dollar. Grane Island is a first-world, occidental country which is fairly technologically advanced.

Grane Island's six provinces are Trublo, Inodo, Capital Province, Manboni, Sefor and Kazarath.

A long, wide river called the Main River flows vertically down the island, separating it into two halves and flowing southward into the Gulf of Gareth. Despite being an island, Grane Island has a large variety of different climates, including deserts, forests, fields, and mountainous areas. The northern third of Grane Island, especially in Sefor, consists of a thick forest, while there is a large desert near the middle of the island.

History
The earliest recorded inhabitants are the Sefor people, who resided in the northern half of the island. The bottom half of the island was uninhabited for unknown reasons.

European colonizers arrived in around 1643. They came from 3 foreign countries; the Quantum Empire, Isania Quin, and Belrogare. The Quantum named its colony Inodo ("new"), Isania named its colony Manboni (after King Toni Manboni), and Belrogare named its colony Kazarath ("new territory").

Manboni was established on the upper right hand side of the island, Inodo was established on the bottom right hand side of the island, and Kazarath was established in the middle of the right side and quickly expanded inland. Manboni expanded westward, and as Inodo expanded westward, its territory across from the Gulf of Gareth was eventually renamed to Trublo ("progress").

Kazarath quickly claimed the most territory, and Manboni proceeded to claim the territory of the Sefor people. The Sefor people and the Manboni colonizers fought in a war and eventually they made a truce and split the land between them. The Kazaraths, at the time thirsty conquerors of Belrogare, attacked Inodo to claim its land, and soon the two territories were at war. As the Quantum Empire and Isania had been considered allies in the recent years, the two fought together against Kazarath and won, pushing it back and splitting their gained territory between the two. Most of this territory is modern-day Captial Province and northern Trublo.

Eventually, both Manboni and Inodo declared their independence from Isania and the Quantum Empire, and Grane Island was formed, with Capital Province being created along with it. While Kazarath has never declared independence from Belrogare, it is considered a part of Grane Island.
