Okutoro

The Island/state Okutoro
Okutoro is a state ruled by dynasties. It was founded and claimed on 11-10-2022. It is now ruled by a Goblin wizard who seeks richdom and power.
History/orgin
The name okutoro means “cold island” in the language of the first inhabitants. This is because the weather on the island is cold and sometimes snowy.
Okutoro is a small city on a coniferous forest island. It was built in the middle because there were no trees and no vegetation but tall grass. The early houses were made of tree stumps, leafs and wood. The species that live there and made it their home are ivy goblins.
Before the third period Okutoro consisted of groups of islands ruled by clans which formed the kingdom of the Yiro/yiro dynasty. The reason behind this was to maintain order and peace, each state (island) had their own rules, any clan that betrayed or wanted to take over the Yiro kingdom would be immediately surrounded and dealt with. The third period started when the Yiro kingdom fell. It all began when the emperor died. Every clan wanted power and rule over the Yiro kingdom. After a clan wanted to take the capital, there were already enough other clans for him. This caused a huge domino effect, clan with island went down with each other. The one family that didn't participate was the Guo family who eventually left their small island and took power over the Yiro capital, they named it Okutoro and like always a new dynasty began. As the Guo dynasty began they rebuild the capital and lost all the other surrounding islands. 
After the Guo dynasty fell there where six more different families (not important). They kept the name and flag since they only wanted Okutoro for its treasures. 
In the 9th dynasty, when the greedy Gashu family reigned, A goblin showed up at the docks on his raft. The people were confused who he was and then it looked like he was a learner of dark arts. This is because he read some sort of spell out of a book that caused dark fog, stopping everything and everyone in the way. Commanding to let the people show him where their ruler was. The royal guards began taking him to the castle. After a short time with the king everyone understood Okutoro is getting a new dynasty. The dirty looking goblin didn’t tell the people his name so they started calling him Tsu. His plan was to first make the island strong and rich and then allying with kingdoms for power. He started deforestation and began building houses, walls and gave people jobs. The people knew their place but the people still felt evil in him. 
Government
Okutoro is ruled by families otherwise known as dynasties. The families rule everything until there is a stronger family, then there begins a new dynasty. Okutoro will always be a monarchy.
The people have no part in deciding what's best for this small state and do not interfere with the actions of the families because they know it shall have consequences. The people sell their crops or items for the price they want. The government doesn't interfere with the prices. The government is strict and will arrest people who stand in their way.
The government doesn't like wars but will help alliances with food and weapons. However the Okutoro Government is good at strategizing so they do not interfere with the wars of their allies. If Okutoro would actually fight in a war it would be on the end of a war and clear out the tired and very much against their will fighting soldiers at the near end of a war.
Flag
The flag of Okutoro is blue with three white stripes and a white dot in the middle. The blue represents the blue sea the island lays in, it also represents the cold and harsh weathers that take place. The big white dot in the middle constitutes the main island where the housing, market and other things take place. The 3 stripes form the 3 islands on the nord where all the security actions take place like the Okutoro prison which has been abandoned since the 5th dynasty and the watchtowers and forts for the guards.
These three islands were imported from the 4th dynasty to the 9th, the families that ruled through these eras were greedy and rapacious, they only wanted to rule for the ores that could be found deep below the muddy peat and tall grass. These families built security buildings on the north sides where most of the pirates boats from other small villages came from.
Architecture
The buildings mostly consisted of a roof made out of some sort of black stone. The walls are made of spruce and fir wood. on the buildings are banners and flags to keep the sunlight out or just for advertisement. There is a castle in the middle which has a similar building style but the walls are made of white concrete. Okutoro has a eastern building style.
Geography
The island is located south-west of spawn at the coordinates 286 / 67 / -6335. It is surrounded by a few other spruce and blue spruce islands with no residents living there.
Culture and people
The people of Okutoro are very basic and neat even though they lived in filth before the 10th dynasty. They have very small cozy houses and most of the families that live there have shops in the new market area to get gold and other stuff that they can trade. If they don't have a shop or stand they probably have a field in the farm area in the south of the island. Most of the farms are rice farms, otherwise they are onion or carrot farms.
If they visit someone they will always and I say always bring a gift. That can be an item or food, it is to show honor and an appreciation that they can enter and be in your house or abode. If you visit them you will have to take armor off before entering the house and bring a gift. If you do not do that they will kick you out or don't talk to you, even though you are not used to doing those things in your culture.
When meeting someone you always bow, if the person is a higher rank you bow deeper. When not this will be extremly disrespectfull.
A big thing for goblins in Okutoro is food, you have read that they give it to each other as a gift or sell it. When you come into a house the main area you can find them is the kitchen. When entering a shop (even though the shop is not food related) there is food for sale.
When buying something on the market dont expect them to lower the prices, they only do that for friends, family, allies from Okutoro or people with a higher rank. Of Course you can still discuss the prices over something with them but don't expect too much.
