National History
People first settled the Arhat Islands in the 5th century A.D. They crossed over the great Reef from an area North of Nazzuben. Comprised of numerous tribes of the Marma and, to a lesser extent Nazzu ethnic groups, many years passed before any semblance of unity was achieved.
In the 17th century, various navies from The continent of Dictatoria brought settlers to areas that would later become metropolitan centers of the Island chain. By the 19th century the various ethnic groups had largely become indistinguishable as one Marmosan cultural group and forged a political confederacy between the islands.
By 1880 The islands were collectively know as “the Confederacy of the Arhat Islands”. The nation is inexorably linked to the Continent of Australia, directly across the straight from the Nation of Nazzuben.
