Basradi

Basradi is a Sultanate of the Kaspari Empire. It is made up of the large island of Basradi and the numerous smaller islands surrounding it, including Beyroq, Tequs, Zidah, Zifar, and countless others. Basradi is the only inhabited island in the archipelago, and more than 70% of the Sultanate's population lives in the capital city of Jeyahan. The remainder of the population resides in scattered tiny fishing and ranching villages.
The rocky islands feature dry scrub and thorny forests, with a handful of small lakes and numerous tumbling streams. A great deal of secluded coves and harbors along the coastline make Basradi an attractive haven for pirates.
==History==
Basradi has long been home to scattered villages of fisherfolk. As the shipping trade became more and more lucrative in the last few hundred years, many of Basradi's fishermen turned to piracy. The islands' wealth of secluded coves and hidden harbors attracted other pirates as well. In time, the most powerful pirate captains began to exercise political control over the archipelago.
The last pirate queen, Wan Sufani, gained control of the archipelago in 1465. During her reign, she added the islands of Yattaga to her empire and successfully fended off both the Kaspari navy and rival pirate captains. In 1502, the power-hungry Jeyahan Council arranged her assassination. But with the pirate queen out of the way, the Kaspari Empire was able to put down the remaining minor captains and gain control of both Basradi and Yattaga.
