Shima

MINOR INFORMATION
Shima is one of the largest cities within the Eastern Chinikan Islands. Shima was settled by Chinikan Settlers in the year of 694 B.F, and was initially a small fishing village. The Fishing Village eventually grew to become a minor city, and by 873 B.F Shima had expanded from a Village to a large trading City. Thanks to the success and expansion of the nearby city of Aldurias, Shima became a middle ground that bridged Aldurias to Chinika, allowing for Shima to benefit from the trade that flowed through the city. Shima stood out from many of the other Chinika settlements, as unlike the other Island and Mainland Settlements, Shima was the only Chinikan settlement to have an consistent foreign minority population number 1/4 of the cities population. A majority of these foreigners, were Orbisians who had immigrated from Aldurias and established small communities within Shima and the surrounding countryside.
