Rivo Republic

Rivo, officially the Rivo Republic, was a small island nation located near central Kanahulu.
== History ==
=== Settlement & Foundation ===
The settlement of Rivo was initially founded on October 14th on the southeastern most island in what would become known as the Rivoan Archipelago. After a brief mapping expedition, it was revealed that the archipelago was home to a small array of historical ruins, and an archeological dig revealed various tools, resources, and pottery fragments. A small bamboo hut and a basic mineshaft were created before the day's end.
A day later, on October 15th, the Rivo Republic was declared and more mapping expeditions were launched in order to explore the area surrounding the archipelago.
=== The Northwestern Crisis ===
On October 16th, a nearby nation known as the Artificers Order of Luserose requested that the Rivo Republic join them as a vassal, which was ultimately declined. A day later, Luserose settled and claimed the central group of islands within the archipelago which resulted in a dispute. After a brief peace was established following diplomatic talks, the Rivoan National Assembly was called in order to decide the fate of the Rivoan claims to the islands in what became known as the Northwestern Question. Later in the day, the National Assembly voted in favor of re-affirming the Rivo Republic's claim to the islands and the Artificers Order of Luserose was declared to be illegally occupying rightful Rivoan territory.
=== The Rivoan Migration ===
Following the Rivoan declaration, the Artificers Order of Luserose responded with insults and harassment. This culminated in the eventual decision for the Rivo Republic to relocate itself away from the northeast, and an hours-long expedition began in order to locate a suitable location. On October 18th, the Rivo Republic was officially re-established on an island near central Kanahulu, and all claims to the original Rivoan Archipelago were abandoned following the transfer of the nation's valuables.
=== Expansion & Development ===
Shortly after the migration was complete, the Rivo Republic entered into a period of slow development and expansion, seeing the construction of public infrastructure and an underground conduit network, administrative reforms, and the election of the nation's first prime minister. During this period, a brief dispute arose with the government of Jusandia following their settlement of the far eastern portion of Grand Rivo Island, but it was resolved peacefully after they were made aware of the Rivo Republic's presence and their subsequent relocation to a nearby island. In the coming days, the colonies of Cherry Island and Azalea Isle were established on islands north and northeast of the People's Commonwealth of Neavanairia respectively. Soon afterward, the Rivo Republic became a signatory of the Treaty of Scilograd.
=== Stagnation & Decline ===
As the world of Kanahulu experienced a lull in activity, the Rivo Republic followed suit. Government activity experienced a gradual decline, and the colony of Azalea Isle collapsed due to a lack of management.
=== The Rivoan Revival ===
On January 2nd, 2024, Luserose's capital city collapsed and was taken over by the newly founded Silly State. Upon hearing of the news, the Rivoan government made plans for an eventual return to the original Rivoan archipelago. These plans were put on hold, however, as an investigation of the archipelago revealed that the Luserose settlement occupying it had yet to collapse. Things remained stagnant until January 19th, when the Rivo Republic joined the fight against the ghost ship of Akonanda. Following its destruction over the Silly State's capital, another investigation of the nearby archipelago was launched, revealing that Luserose's settlement had collapsed and their influence had evaporated. A day later, the Cherry Island colony was assigned a new governor, the Azalea Isle colony was re-established, and the old Rivoan Archipelago was re-settled and re-organized as the Northeastern Territories. This period of revival would persist until January 29th when the world of Kanahulu came to an end.
