## **The Salmon Pirate Nation of the Seas**

From Captain Salmon Boys ship, The Black Pearl, Athan achieved to capture his "foretold homeland" The Salmon Isles, just east of The Mediterrayrib. Athan, wanting more land for his new nation, asked his old friend Emperor Dom II and King Dain II for help against the Strippers. The Quo Empire was reluctant to help but the Dwarves needed much convincing. In 497 the three nations declare war and immedialty a white banner is posted above the Vanilla Unicorn with Quo and Dwarves pouring into New YDN and sharing the city between each other while the Pirates already began to build docks on their newly claimed Salmon Isles. The Salmon's immediately began the construction of Salmon Square on The Salmon Isles. With the aid of the Salmon Pirates' new allies, Salmon Square and The Docks of Salmon were finished construction in 515. Throughout the Fifth Age, The Salmon Pirates became a very wealthy country due to its vast networks of trade routes amongst the other nations. The Salmon Isles became a strategic port and a bustling hub of trade and tourism which the Salmon Pirate economy thrived on. Due to this huge coming amounts of money, The Salomn Pirates built a fleet of 18 frigates which patrolled the Southern Seas around The Mediterrayrib. In the year 580, Captain Salmon Boy set sail with his fleet to look for new lands. Many nations followed his example which led to the great expansion age, The Sixth Age.

### **Age of Expansion and rapid growth**

In 646, The Salmon Pirates make port at a huge island, which they named Tortuga. After meeting the indigenous tribes men and bandits, The Salmon set out to claim the entire island for their own by defeating the infamous bandits and recovering the innocent Tortuguians. Shipwreck Cove, which became the capital in 743, was a huge naval port and trading hub of The Salmon Pirate Nation. The Salmon Pirates ruled the seas and dwarfed the Quo and Dwarven navies greatly. Athan also sat on The League of Ayribs table and together with the other countries of the Realm, discussed many quarrels and set out for huge trade deals, especially with The Kingdom of Erebor. The rise of fascsim in the Seventh Age did not fear Captain Salmon Boy. Many times Dwarves would meet with Athan and convince him never to adopt the "evil" (as said by the Dwarves) ideology.

### **The Salmon Nation during the Cold War**

In the Eight Age, with Philips return to the island, the Salmons treated this as a welcoming. Head Bitch Philip was thought to have died, but he returned and many Salmon saw him as "someone who will have revenge" -Dj Harris. Although it was thought that Philip would try and acquire The Salmon Isles again, he actually had a hatred for the Quo's, which eventually led to his downfall on the Mediterrayrib. During the Cold War the Salmons supported the Dwarves and disliked Quo Fascsim. The Salmons were forced to expand and take other islands during the Quo's Age of expanding. Umber Island, north of Tortuga, was settled by the Salmons in 868. The Salmon Pirates upgraded their fleet to about 26 frigates by the Eight Age and began on making alliances with the Dwarves and Strippers.

### **Destruction of Quo**

In 933, Captain Salmon Boy met with all leaders but Mussolini in Erebor to discuss the war plan against The Quo Empire. Athan had agreed to destroy Quo ships and convoys and help with the siege of Quo Castle. However in 940, 4 years before the war, King Dain II and Captain Salmon Boy met in secret, in Shipwreck Cove, and agreed on which country would get what after the war. Together they divided up the Quo Land and agreed on who would get what. The war stated off well for the Salmon's but as time went on, many pirates were lost and ships were sunken. So in 985, The Salmon Pirate Nation of the Seas, pulled out of the war and in 999 Captain Salmon Boy watched Mussolini be hung.

## **Post Desolation of Quo**

In the new age of peace, Captain Salmon Boy announced to the world and his nation a new way of rule, democracy. Captain Salmon Boy created a government where parties could run to become President or "Captain". Athan's party was the Democratic Sparrow Party (DSP) who won the election in 1001. The Salmon Pirate Nation also joined the newly formed United Ayribs and has the second best economy in the Realm.
