## History

Main article: History of the Federation of the South

The Federation of the South started as a series of colonies on Manos Island, when settlers bound for the south of Tuur escaped to the island. There the settlers founded the nation, and developed without intervention from Tuur, as the settlers had been able to target and sink ships crossing the sea to reach the island.

These colonies later developed and expanded across the entire island and even expanded to the mainland after having attained the technological power to defend it's borders with Tuur. The nation, following speculation that powerful species lived in the southern land of the penisula, led a conquest to capture the entire penisula. Which allowed it to expand it's borders and land area.
