Shipwreck Shore

Shipwreck Shore is a small volcanic island in the middle of the Guardian sea. 
== Origin ==
Little is known about the origins of the island as there are no recordings of its existence before the accidental discovery by the vemern citizen ImStian_ on the 12th of July 2021. Some theories for why the island was not included on any maps have sprung up: like whether it was a simple error or due to harsh volcanic activity. After the discovery of Shipwreck Shore plans were laid to transform it into a hub for sailors, merchants and adventurers from all of Eldham.
== History ==
=== Early History ===
When the news of the existence of an uncharted island in the middle of the Guardian sea surfaced. The region of Eleanor of The Forge got involved and tried to claim Shipwreck Shore as a part of its territory. ImStian_, the sole inhabitant of Shipwreck Shore, decided to stand his ground keeping the island out of any nation's hands.
=== Protectorate of the Tsardom of Wolfingrad ===
Shipwreck Shore remained as an independent uncharted territory for several months. Since so few knew of the island’s existence there wasn’t much activity surrounding the island. Local merchants and fishermen rarely visited the island. On the 17th of November 2021 the Tsardom of Wolfingrad approached ImStian_ with the intention of offering protection to the island. Shipwreck Shore became a fully autonomous protectorate of The Tsardom of Wolfingrad. This deal officially lasted until the 9th of February 2022 when Wolfingrad collapsed, but due to the distance between Shipwreck Shore and the rest of Wolfingrad, it took a while before the news reached Shipwreck Shore. The island was once again an independent territory and remained so until the 24th of September 2022. 
=== The Kingdom of Zaluminas ===
On the 24th of September 2022 a gang of Zaluminians claimed Shipwreck Shore as a part of their territory and renamed it Zanewmia. The island became the capital of the Kingdom of Zaluminas. ImStian_, who still oversaw the island, was confounded and wanted the Zaluminians to leave. Instead of acting with violence, he decided to befriend them. The Zaluminians recoginized ImStian_’s ability to protect and oversee the island and gave him more freedom and autonomy. The Zaluminas eventually lost interest and left the island.
