Machukara (Mah-chew-car-rah)
Machukara is a sovereign country comprising the mainland island of Machukara as well as numerous smaller islands. It is the largest island of Ni-Koh, and has a population of just over 30 000. Nakamaru is the nation's capital and largest city.
The only enemy state of Machukara is that of the pirate state of Jiyū, which is mostly made up of Triton pirates. Whilst Akura denies knowing the location of the Pirate base weapons and supplies from Pirate wreckages have been known to have the Akurian isignia on it. For this reason the Akura and Machukara don't always see eye to eye.
Machukara's more solid relations come in the form of treaties with Wa-an, Shidekima and its main ally Ama Basin. As a result relationships are strained with Tsukishima and Kozakura.
Early History
Rumors say the first elves crafted this island harnessing the power of the Spire crystals after the Calamity. They say they altered it in a vain attempt to highlight their superior connection to the Shin, whilst also positoning themselves close to the Spire and therefore closer to the gods themselves.Geography and Climate
Bathed in the light of the Spire, Machukara is full of life. Lush forests cover the entire landscape, filled with wonderous creatures. The proximity to the Spire has its drawbacks, so a Shin dome has been created around the island to protect from the harsher effects. The Dome also regulates the weather and climate of the territory keeping it a constant humid temperature throughout. Raised high above sea level the harsh Cliffs of Yosei make up the borders that drop to the Aurora Sea below. Large mountain ranges dot the southern borders and taper to the north, while the everflowing Fey Falls makes up the northern border. The abundance of Shin makes this territory more like something out of the feywilds, with shin creatures and locations scattered throughout. Most of the elves have kept their roots with Nureta and live on or near water. The body of water that flows into the Fey Falls is known as Erufu Bay. Whilst Kagami Lake lies below the southwestern mountains.Government and Politics
Machukara is an Absolute monarch with a Primeminster ruling over the territory. Each settlement has its own leader whom attends parliment to request aid and discuss politics of the territory. Current Ruler: Primeminister Wolyn IICultures
Whislt the vast population of Machukara is Elven there are other races who make up the territory. Moon Elves (15%) Eladrin (5%) Sun Elves (35%) Wood Elves (16%) Dragonborn (5%) Namazu (4%) Myconoid (4%) Fairyfolk (4%) Centuars (0.5%) Pygmy (0.5%) Tabaxi (4%) Treant (8%) Harengon "Rabbitfolk" (3%) Tortles (1%) Satyrs (1%)Military
Raised high above sea level the borders are harsh cliffs, making it the most defendable but isolated territories in all of Ni-Koh. The only entrace and exit point (by non-shin means) is through the lower ports of the Capital. Thus the majority of Machukara's military is Naval based, and is wildly respected as the most powerful naval force of Ni-Koh.Foreign Relations
Whilst Machukara has friendly raltions with most other territories, its treaties with certain terriorties make it some relations more fragile than others.The only enemy state of Machukara is that of the pirate state of Jiyū, which is mostly made up of Triton pirates. Whilst Akura denies knowing the location of the Pirate base weapons and supplies from Pirate wreckages have been known to have the Akurian isignia on it. For this reason the Akura and Machukara don't always see eye to eye.
