== Pre-History (New Caledonia) ==
New Caledonia was an island in the Southeast Pacific Ocean populated largely by Greek Immigrants. The Island came to relevancy when the military junta took control sometime before 757 AD. 
=== Tourism and Relevancy ===
Under the eye of Alexios Klaipedia, New Caledonia's Junta set out a plan to reach economic prosperity. Using the little resources and money on the island, Klaipedia greatly invested in tourist attractions. The first of these developments was constructing beach resorts across the island. Due to the lack of advertisement, not many foreigners were attracted to these resorts, however public opinion of the Junta greatly increased. 
In an effort to attract more tourists, Caledonia began using the little profits they had to invest in advertising. The Junta targeted other pacific nations - most importantly Nicolidesland. Many of the Nicolides' citizens were eager to flock to these resorts. Some tourists went to other countries, such as those in Europe, which brought a minor audience from those countries outside of the Pacific. Caledonia implemented souvenir shops built inside of the resorts, as well as photography studios for families wishing to keep memorabilia which attracted even more tourists from Nicolidesland. These profits increased the experience of the resorts, resulting in even more tourists and money. 
==== Concern in the Junta ====
After the success of tourism, members of the Military Junta became greatly concerned with the introduction of foreigners and the conversion of a civilian economy. Klaipedia was able to quell these concerns by convincing that the civilian economy was temporary and necessary for expansion. While this stopped any current discussion, the concerns and fantasies of a Greek ethnostate remained in the hearts of some Junta members. 
=== Economic Development ===
Using the profits from the tourism business, Caledonia was able to invest in industry and infrastructure in separate phases. Phase one established paved roads / highways throughout the island to secure the transportation of goods. Phase 2 constructed export-focused manufactories that exploited the raw materials being shipped into Caledonia. Phase 3 implemented three massive ports - distanced from the major resorts. This is to believed to transform Caledonia into one of the most prosperous nations in the Southeast pacific, despite being a once-insignificant island. 
Once the previous project was completed, the Junta once again began an advertising. Rather than the people, it was the corporations. The majority of popular Asian companies were contacted and invested, attracted to the offers of cheap labor and modernized equipment. Once these companies set up these deals, Caledonia became massively rich. Some foreign governments and revolutionaries, mostly in warlord China, were opposed to these developments, but they never gained much traction due to their political insignificance. 
==== Rivalry with Vanuatu and expansion ====
Ever since Caledonia dipped into the tourism industry, The Kingdom of Vanatu has been an aggressive business rival. Rather than continue this competition, Klaipedia decided to launch a military invasion to annex the island and exploit its resources. Caledonia's superior Navy quickly gained dominance, but struggled landing an invasion on the island. The operation was eventually launched near the resort; precisely an underdeveloped scenery walk. The battle quickly swept through the resort, with the advance being halted on the and a capital siege commenced. Vanuatu fell and the King fled to Vietnam, weary of Caledonia's future expansion. 
After the fall of Vanuatu, Klaipedia set eyes on a new target: the Solomon Islands. A demand was sent directly to the presidential office, requesting that the Republic would be disbanded and annexed into New Caledonia. The President sent a counter-demand, and offered to be a vassal of the Junta, and Caledonia accepted. With the Military Governor en route, the President resigned his cabinet into the arms of New Caledonia. 
After this, Klaipedia declared the United State of Melanesia.
