Pirate Oceania

The rebellion of Kantoli in 383 CE marked the beginning of a new chapter for Oceania. Faced with the rising tide of Kantoli's forces, pirate captains, in a desperate bid for survival, they fled southward, seeking refuge in the scattered islands and the desolation of Australia.

# United Pirate Front

As the pirates settled along Australia's untamed coasts, they created temporary havens for repairs, rest, and planning. Australia's beaches became the unofficial refuge for the united pirate front.

The pirates, lacking centralized governance, operated under an unwritten code. The absence of cities fueled a decentralized yet effective network. The united pirate front, though lacking in formal structure, stood as a formidable force against external threats.

The pirates did not enslave the locals. Instead, they blend with the indigenous communities. Cultural exchange flourished as pirates and locals shared skills, traditions, and knowledge.

# Unknown Years of History

In the absence of concrete historical records, constructing an accurate account of Oceania's history between 500 CE and 800 CE poses a significant challenge.

Both the pirates who settled along Australia's coasts and the indigenous communities left no written documentation of history. While local mythology hints at a pirate-mermaid war, it remains shrouded in uncertainty, with the line between fact and fiction blurred.

The next timeline is based on the limited knowledge available, drawing from known events such as the Tongan Empire's rise and Polynesian expansions.
