## Historical data

### Dissolved

September 11th, 2023

**Hattium**, officially the **Hattium Republic**, was a small island republic located in the northern Alleia Ocean on the fringes of Central Akonanda.

## History

### Settlement

The Hattium Republic's history started on June 9th, 2023 when 84841 landed on an unnamed island after an extensive journey. He initially resided in what was thought to be an abandoned house, resting there for the night. When he awoke on the next day, it was discovered that the house was already inhabited by a player named Ison. With this information known, 84841 relocated to the southern portion of the island and founded the settlement of Hattium. Shortly afterward, a player arrived on the island and attempted to plunder Hattium to no avail, then moving on to Ison's house and ransacking it before departing. After a few hours, Ison logged on and accused 84841 of having been the culprit, but the dispute was resolved peacefully and Ison chose to leave the island in 84841's care as he decided to make a new home elsewhere. The island was named "Isono" in his honor.

### Foundation & Dispute

On June 11th, the Hattium Republic was declared after enough funding had been raised through various mining ventures. Diplomatic relations were soon established with many of its neighboring countries, and the island began to steadily develop. On June 12th, the leader of the Republic of Calaveria disputed the status of the Island of Isono, but the dispute was settled peacefully after it was made apparent that the Hattium Republic held the more legitimate claim.

### The Week-Long Peace

After the Calaverian dispute was settled, the Hattium Republic experienced a nearly week long period of peace, and the nation continued to develop steadily as new citizens arrived on the island and various forms of public infrastructure were constructed, including farms and the creation of Hattium Honey. Despite various nations attempting to diplomatically incorporate the Hattium Republic as a member, vassal, or tributary state, the nation managed to reinforce its sovereignty.

### The Cedic Crisis

On June 17th, a message was left near Hattium's southern dock by the Court of Cedar, the successor state to the Podastist States, claiming that the Hattium Republic sat in the middle of Cedic waters and that its leader wished to speak. 84841 then reached out to Omeg I in order to discuss the situation. Omeg I displayed a map showing the Island of Isono within Cedic claims, but a quick search revealed that no known public maps corroborated these claims, which led 84841 to press Omeg I about their legitimacy. Unexpectedly, Omeg I claimed that he had the "support of the Central Nations Alliance" and that it was "all he would need". He then delivered an ultimatum demanding that the Hattium Republic join the Court of Cedar or do so by force.

Immediately afterward, 84841 contacted the leaders of the Central Nations Alliance, who were largely unaware of the situation that was transpiring beyond having been led to believe that Hattium was run by squatters. After they saw that the Hattium Republic was already an established nation, they did not recognize the Cedic claims to the Island of Isono. Despite this, Omeg I and another Cedic national landed on Isono and attempted to persuade 84841 and another Hattian citizen into forming an alliance with the Court of Cedar, but they were rebuffed since it was apparent that they were being disingenuous. They showed up two more times during the day, with the final encounter seeing them don their armor and briefly start heckling 84841 before departing.

As the days progressed, Omeg I continued to try provoking the Hattium Republic, specifically targeting 84841 by pestering and cursing at him or insulting the Hattium Republic in general with videos and images, with their true intent being thinly veiled as "propaganda". During this, the Hattium Republic formally denounced the Court of Cedar during the World Summit. The situation worsened after hostile rhetoric from the Cedic government became more frequent, and the Hattium Republic entered into a state of emergency after it became apparent that the Court of Cedar intended to declare war. The situation was brought to the attention of the Central Nations Alliance, though little was done by their leadership outside of threatening the Court of Cedar with expulsion from the alliance should they attempt to declare war. The situation would somewhat deescalate over the next couple of days, and soon afterward the Cedic Crisis would come to an end after the permanent discontinuation of diplomatic relations.

### Final Days

With the Cedic Crisis having come to an end, the Hattium Republic found itself at peace. As the world of Akonanda fell to bandits and a growing conflict between the living and the undead, the Hattium Republic continued to maintain its neutrality. Over time, Hattium's government functions began to shut down, and the nation entered into a managed decline as its citizens and allies began to seek out new worlds to call home. In the early days of September, 2023, sea levels across the entirety of Akonanda began to rise at a sudden and unexpected rate. The rapid flooding proved to be near impossible to defend against, and much of the Hattium Republic sank into the depths of the northern Alleia Ocean. With no options left for escape, what remained of the Hattium Republic silently slipped below the waves, taking its remaining population with it and officially bringing the nation to an end.

## Culture

The Hattium Republic's population was primarily composed of the Hattite culture, which stresses the importance of establishing genuine friendships with people in spite of political situations and appreciating making the most out of small territorial situations while maintaining an environment where the average civilian's opinion matters.

Its primary build style varies, but generally follows a more simplistic vanilla-esque style that utilizes stone-derived blocks, oak, and birch.
