## History

TBA

When the nation of Independent Guiana had been disestablished due to a war with the Portuguese and French, the British helped them reconstruct their villages for 5 years, along with some indians, on which the Portuguese called Tucuris. The former president of the republic, Francis-Xavier Cabral, a former orphan and a French-born Brazilian cadet, signed the treaty of Calcoene, on the site on which was formerly called Counani.

In 1901, Adolphe Brezet took a trip to the territory of former Independent Guiana, and made a republic there. The Tucuris signed the declaration of independence, and some living in the towns of Amapá, Jari and Clevelandia, had been signing it too. The declaration had twists however. It was recognized by France, but not by Brazil or the United States. It has been also claimed that the former Boer republic leaders of Transvaal and Oranje had been sending negotiations through the nation until their takeover by the United Kingdom.

Adolphe was building "an empire over quicksand", until in 1905, Adolphe's reign had been over when the Brazilian army had been attacking the nation of Counani, ending it's legacy.

However, in the next, Castanite Brezet, one of Adolphe's neighbors, had been sending over 30 thousand Tucuri indians to battle against the Brazilians. The battles were held in the former towns of Calcoene and Clevelandia, along with the French settlements of Saint Georges du Guiane. The last Brazilian cadets to flee from the land then escaped to the city of Maceió.

Following the Tucuri victory, the Brezet family and the indians celebrated the independence of the nation. They had named it Oyapock, due to it's instant closure to the river of the same name.

In 1913, due to the country's afraid of being attacked by the United States, Brazil and the United Kingdom, the nation proposed a slave law. 20 boats were built, one of which, S.S. Packerigh, was the greatest. In the law, over 2000 slaves from the islands of Jamaica, Trinidad, Guadeloupe, Puerto Rico and Grenada have been brought to the shores of the newborn nation.
