Vjokoeiral

The **Vjokoeiral** (Makkadalish: Vjoköiral) are five Wonao nations located to the south of Bujan. They consist of Makkadal, Joltaraata, Toluduri, Oenlamta, and Ohon.

## 1. Kingdom of Makkadal

See also: Makkadal

Makkadal is the biggest member of the Five. It is an age-old monarchy, equal to its past rivals of Resovjant and Ohon in terms of being an advanced, sophisticated society since the Seventh Age. Its name means "the splendid gift", as the whole nation claimed it was a gift from Heaven to the world.

Capital: Ajuvriti

### Flag of Makkadal

The flag of Makkadal is dark blue, representing wisdom. The gold disk represents the moon, and the longevity of Makkadal. The top pattern over the moon represents the blessing of the Gods, or the domes in its buildings. The middle pattern within the moon represents happiness.

The surrounding pattern around the moon is a mark for a line of poetry in the Makkadalish abugida, representing sophistication and creativity.

## Regions of Makkadal

* Principality of Arienai - both a province and a region, the northernmost region in Makkadal, not including the enclaves in the Home Islands.
* Ngorondel Region
* Džōneuča Region - near the sea border to Irajon, between Ngorondel and the islands of southern Bujan near Arienai.
* Hasauda Region - near Joltaraata
* Pauvjoro Region - between Ngorondel and Arienai
* Makkadal Region - southernmost region, the main region of Makkadal.

### Makkadalish enclaves

* Principality of Arienai - see below

* Tarigil Palace - at the southern side of Telmuna Province, facing the sea, Tarigil Palace is the summer villa of Makkadal's royal family. It is also a sort of embassy between the two nations.
* Arokunga - the Makkadalish merchant district that became an enclave deep within Bujan. East of Nasarpollo Republic, it once housed many Terran refugees who fled from the militants, who also expanded and fortified its islands with the help of the Royal Armed Forces.

### Principality of Arienai

See also: Arienai

The Principality of Arienai is an autonomous island located just south of Bujan. It is a condominium, where both Makkadalish and Bujanski authority apply there.

Regional capital: Port Latūnam

## 2. Republic of Joltaraata

Capital: Amtaranto

* Joltaraata is the only nation among the Outer Islands with a Slavic majority, being related to the Bujanski Slavs. Most of these Slavs are blonde.
	+ Joltaraatian Wonaos are outnumbered by the local Slavs by 1 to 8. They consist of eight or nine tribes in the main island, and thirty-three in total all over the republic.
* The island is mostly mountainous and tropical, so farms were traditionally terraced along the hills and plateaus. The construction of farm-towers during Denlotian times led to this island becoming "the breadbasket of the Five Realms", when it was formerly a kingdom known as Tinoval.
	+ The Joltaraata Slavs retained their Slavic language, but much of their culture was influenced by Wonao culture. Because of their unusual appearance and attire, they are depicted as an exotic tribe of fairies, which upsets them.
* The Joltaraatian republic existed as early as just after Zvesta was founded. That was also when the blonde Slavs immigrated, only to become too numerous at around 300 AT. Still, the Wonao inhabitants did not mind because those Slav compatriots remained loyal to their republic.
	+ Although they are Slavs, the Joltaraata Slavs refused to obey the Zavtranians or the Wannaenids. They cursed back and proudly displayed their republic's emblems, repelling those foes.
* When Bujan fell to Wannaenid rule, Makkadal helped fortify the island. The island also reclaimed more land from the seas to solve its overpopulation problem, building new garden-cities on various artificial islands. These islands are also surrounded by coral reefs.
	+ The new islands also produced more food from new farm-towers, and more electricity from open fields of rytoryntar and new wind and solar plants. This, along with a string of successful defences, allowed the Outer Realms to remain well-fed, and staved off the Wannaenid invaders as they were unable to breach Joltaraata anymore. Attacks by the Terrans and Wannaenids against any one of the farm towers led to merciless counterattacks against any presence of those violators. Any invader who did not surrender was quickly slain, punished for damaging even one of those farm towers or any school or hospital.
	+ Centuries later, the Joltaraatians went together with their allies to liberate Bujan. Both Wonaos and Slavs of this country celebrated their unification as Bujanski subjects as "Reunification Day", after they voted to become subjects of Bujan. Like the other four states, becoming Bujanski subjects led to a rapid development of the country's infrastructure.

### Flag of Joltaraata

The Joltaraatian national flag is red, with pink stripes and a flower at the lower right. The red represents Wonao heritage and its people; pink stripes for tradition, art, and the Slavic people of the country; and the flower for beauty and unity.

### Duchy of Gwirora

Gwirora Island is to the northwest of Joltaraata. Its Wonao majority practice a distinctive culture, ruled by a Duke.

Capital: Dohalkirun Vesoan ("Summer Breeze City")

## 3. Republic of Toluduri

Capital: Jörrura

The flag of Toluduri's symbol is a monogram representing the word "kötjaral", meaning "together".

* Before Wannaenid invasion, Toluduri was the second-wealthiest and the most industrial and modernised of the Outer Islands. In its villages and towns, the same convenience store can be found across any street, that different stores had to be specialised as bars, restaurants, dance halls, arcades, and cinemas.
* On the eve of the Wannaenid conquest of Bujan it overtook Makkadal as the richest and the most modern of the five states, but readily defended itself.
* The Wannaenids managed to occupy the northern portion of Toluduri, but were expelled weeks later by its allies. When Toluduri tried to rebuild, its people uncovered dozens of mass graves where the murdered remains of their people were found. Three days of mourning were held as the slain were cremated, and the victims' names were the battlecries of Toludurian members of the Coalition when they liberated Bujan.
* Toluduri has around 300 cat cafes, the most in the Outer Islands. Some of them were among the convenience stores converted to make them more unique and different than those of the same brand.
* Toluduri is named after its main island at the west. It is one of two hubs for network of undersea train tunnels that locals can freely board.

### Flag of Toluduri

The national flag of Toluduri is green and red, with an emblem in gold.

Green represents the jungles of the island and it being the second-wealthiest of the Five Realms before union with Bujan. Red represents the Wonaos of Toluduri, their courage, and their republic's industrial advancement. The emblem is a monogram of the word "kötjaral", meaning "together".

## 4. Republic of Oenlamta

* Oenlamta is made of a northern mainland and a southern archipelago. The northern mainland is hilly, with many rivers, and the southern islands are mountainous.
* Oenlamtians are carpenters and gardeners who love plants.

Capital: Nokurik Port

### Flag of Oenlamta

The Oenlamtian flag is green, with dark green and white stripes having three flowers.

Dark green for truth and peace; white stripes for justice; light green for the forests; and the flowers for righteousness and kindness.

The flag of Oenlamta is seen as the most beautiful of the Outer Realms' flags.

## 5. Kingdom of Ōhon

Capital: Naanomok (Summertown)

Orange is the traditional colour of Ohon, because it represents the month of October and pumpkins, a symbol of the kingdom.

* Ohon is one of three Wonao civilisations dating back to ancient times, alongside Makkadal and Resovjant.
* The island of Ohon is more flat, so it was formerly the Breadbasket of the Five Realms. Barley, rice, and pumpkins were its most famous crops.
* Its cultural traditions involve stone architecture and cuisine.

### Flag of Ohon

The Ohonian national flag is purple, with a dark purple stripe below, an orange stripe above, and a compass star in the middle.

Purple represents the history of Ohon; dark purple for the sea; the orange stripe for the sky and happiness; and the star for hope.
