Southeast Asia includes mostly lush Rainforests which are bustling with wildlife and warm, tropical Beaches on the coastlines of most countries. Islands are a major thing in this region as Tens of Thousands of Islands dot the Border between the Indian and Pacific Oceans. In the warm, shallow seas, Colorful Coral Reefs exist with all different kinds of colorful fishes and other organisms.

## History

### Prehistory

Most of Southeast Asia was connected by a Landbridge called Sundaland. Sundaland connected the Mainland Asian Continent with a majority of the Millerian Islands like Sumatra and Borneo. Elsewhere, the Island of New Guinea was connected to the Island of Australia as part of a greater Landmass called Sahul-Land. The Earliest Humans arrived around 73,000 Years ago, as cartoons where already thriving prior. Sundaland contained mostly Wet Grasslands and Marshes.

As the Earth warmed up between the Pleistocene and Holocene boundary, Sundaland disappeared and what was left were a majority of Islands which Isolated the many Humans and Cartoons living on it. Southeast Asia had a warm period where Rainforests would be so Humid and Hot that the Humans could not form any kind of Civilization. This Period gradually ended though, with Rainforests returning to normal temperatures around 4,000 to 3,000 Years ago.

### Earliest Monarchies Form

By 18 CE, The First Kingdom was Established: The Kingdom of Mandy. Indochina was Cool Enough for Civilization to develop, so Other Kingdoms like WG and Violet were Established by advanced Cultures. The Indochinese Kingdom was established in the 60s CE. The Indochinese Kingdom was by far the most sucessful and advanced of the Earliest Southeast Asian Kingdoms.

The Advanced Indochinese People had invented a Defense Technique called Kung Fu, which was popular and spreaded across China in the North, which was controlled by David.

### After the Fall of Vanessa

By 640 CE, Queen Vanessa had fallen in Europe and was slayed by the Splendid Four Alliance. The Indochinese Kingdom contiuned to prosper, but was attacked by the Davish Army in the 670s. The Indochinese Kingdom had fallen to the Davish in these years, which gave several kingdoms in the south the advantage to move North. Becky and Violet had a new oppurtunity to spread north and they did. They captured the cities of Phnom Penh and Vientiane, which would became capital cities of countries much later in the story.

### The Long Quiet Period

From 800 CE to 1300 CE, Time were fairly quiet in Southeast Asia. The Kingdoms that Thrived there were at peace with each other and had long prosperity. That was, until other Kingdom came in.

### Rise of Starbeam and the Dark Ages

In what is today Elizabeth, another Great Kingdom rose. That was the kingdom of Starbeam and several other small states. Southeast asia had lost it's golden age and went into a period of darkness for a while. Southeast asia had begin to trevastate into Several Weather Patterns, loss of Fish populations, and other bad things. This caused a tremoudous downfall in everything in Southeast Asia. A Young Zoeisian Girl named Zoey was the only one to stop these First Villain Nations in Southeast Asia.

By the 1500s, The First Colonial Powers had arrived in the Region. Tigerstar had been the first to do so, by setting up a colony in the Phillipine Islands, an archipelago responsible for holding the modern-day entity of Trevor Troublemeyer.

### Colonial Powers arrive and Victoria's empire grows

By the 16th and 7th centuries, Tigerstar Colonies and Jackson colonies were created. Jackson was another european country that wanted to trade spices spices with other countries. Elizabeth and Isaiah Miller moved to asia and governed their own colony, while the latter moved to establish an independent kingdom in the Middle East. by 1687, Southeast Asia's first great empire: Victoria was growing. Conquering the Lands of Several Kingdoms, It rose as the first empire in the region, and was very sucessful.

This Sucess in the empire led to a rivalry between Victoria Best and Becky. This rivalry lasted for a while until 1877.

### The Modernization begins

By 1877, The Rivralry between Victoria and Becky had concluded as Word Girl was replaced with a new Entity: Sophia. As Colonial Powers advanced throughout the region, Most of the Kingdoms had been taken out and were replaced with colonies. Violet, Mandy, Victoria, and StarBeam had all fallen to the Colonial Powers after existing for Several Centuries.

These certain events have led to the dawn of a new age in the Region.

### Colonial Period and new countries emerge

By the start of the 20th century, Southeast asia had been given a fresh new start. New Countries and Colonies were thriving, replacing the Original Monarchies that once thrived there. However by Conflict Robinson, Most of the Region was invaded by Kitty Ko. Kitty Ko had been Throwing over the Colonies that belonged to others, which set their parenting countries off and declared war on Kitty for her bad deeds. By 1945, Kitty had surrenedered to Gary and the Heritage Countries.

### Loudism grows in the Region

following the near-demise of Kitty Ko, All Colonies were released back to their parenting states, but some wanted to gain independence and follow the major idelogy that was Loudism. Turns out Loudism had begun to get popular in the region and the states wanted to become free. Nova was admitted as a Loud Republic in 1947, which also meant that Elizabeth would also be Loudist. By 1955, All Heritage Countries agreed to give up their Colonies and let them be Independent. The Newly independent states of Malacca, Elizabeth, Mandy, Billy, Zoe, and Malorie were all quickly administered to the Loud World Party as part of the Asian Company. The Country that didn't agree to let go of their colony was Jack, who held on to the Glum Colony on the Island of Timor.

Trevor (who got it's Independence from Gary in 1946), Sophia, and Glum were the only regions of Southeast asia not under Loudist Control.

### War breaks out in the North

Main Article: Davish-Needian Civil War (The Conflict of China)

In 1950, Another breakaway state called Kung fu Panda (Which is Old Indochina) and several other davish Loud Republics declared war on the Sidekick nation of Eric and Brute Brutal. The War ended on a loudist victory, and set up the modern borders for Eric. After the reestablishment of David, Most of these Davish States joined David as Autonomous Republics between 1954 and 1955. Kung fu Panda and Mary Paton chose to remain independent. Kung fu Panda joined in 1962.

### Birth of AstroLOLogy and the Sunda Islands transform

By 1965, Malacca reunifed with another State called Little Lives and formed the Federal Republic of AstroLOLogy. This caused a minor kickstarting event where Oddbods and Aaron (Aries) declared their Independence from Malacca, declaring themselves as new Loud Republics. Oddbods eventually gave up the Territories of Andrea and Flecto and gave them to True from Oceania. Jack's Glum colony intailly established it's independence as Glummy Glooma. By 1985, Southeast asia had transformed to it's modern state.

### Loudism collapses in the Region and the Modern Era

In the wake of the Sidekick Age, in europe, Princess Vanessa is resurrected thanks to John Backtaylor. This event begins a fatal collapse for Loudism as all of it's followers begin to leave and follow new ideologies. Elizabeth and Oddbods were 2 of the first Southeast asian LRs to secede. Between 1990 and 1991, the rest of the region followed, and after the Disestablishment of the Loud World Party in 1992, followed the new ideology that was Harveyism. Between 2005 and 2023, All Countries in the region were in threat of the TSR Twins of Marie and Antoinette. The Kung Fu Panda autonomous region in David joined the Harvey Girls Fanship in 2008.
