Members of the Navaro Kai academy elect a Gungixian descended/Wereuan citizen (from the old capitol of Ru'sha) Hwan Ghou Kai, whom had been given much military power due to his expertese in the battle of Old Daijoua, and was currently considered one of the most trusted generals in the Taijoua army. He was reluctant to join in the rebellion but was coaxed to the side of the Kai after witnessing many travesties committed against innocent civilians.

His meetings with the Kai have been secret and thus he is unable to attend the meetings himself but several ambassadors arrive in Gungixao to speak on his behalf.

He hopes to end the nonsensible persecution of the random peoples throughout his lands, with foreign support if necessary, and would pledge to maintain a stable alliance with nations that aid them in their plight, including revising the membership with the OTA to maintain stable tax rates and the like.

What you're going all the way up to that penninsula?
Sheesh thats not an illegal move I guess cause You had called it first but if thats the case:
I am going to have to be much more insistant of my claim i made several pages ago that the lake around the north of Teijina was recently conqued for farming purposed and is now under Rustuffe control. I usually try to avoid being pushy about land claims, and theres a bunch of different claims I have made in the past that were never even paid attention to, but considering how much territory we are allowed to appearantly grab in one sitting, the edge around the Teijina/Titchwahk lake seems like a small area to request in comparison

Moreover I'll revise the statement to the citizens of Teijina are extremely frightened over recent border expansions by Ezbatu, but seeing as the land is already claimed there is nothing they can do about it. -,-

Rustuffe forces begin stationing themselves and along the borders in the major cities to prevent invasion.

Ok I was confused as to what you were referring to, I thought that new township was such, given that:
Instead of Lake lets make it just horizontally lined up with the southern edge of the penninsula where it tucks back inland and a presumed river dividing that there bay formed to the south.

The citizens of Teijina Province become increasingly alarmed at Ezbatan military aggression and expansion nearby and demand action.

The state begins setting up a camp on the east of the lake that lies east of the newest Ezbautan land and a river that runs through it and out to the ocean, a group of settlers are brought to the area to begin farming the lands to the east and north of the lake, but with a clear dividing line at the river/lake to define what is presumed an acceptable border. Various assets from the previous Arm of Bao that are able to be confiscated are incorporated into the primary military forces.

A message is sent in response that is taxing the waters in its own territory as agreed and it apologizes if there was a misunderstanding in the execution of local authority. It assures Ezbatu it will try to keep such violations in the future to a minimum.

A few merchants from Ezbatu escape from Taijoau waters and report that Taijoau is performing seizures of legal cargo and is setting tax rates over 65% on private and state-endorsed goods.

*shades*


The Arm of Bao is spontaneously disbanded, while many dedicated troop still hold to Neishah and the Gungxi government, many dedicated Baoists and other soldiers leave the force either pledgeing allegiance to various local townships to provide for the defense of the citizens against this tyrant or to rebellion forces dedicated to ousting his regime.


Many Kai pledge their allegiance to the effort of ousting Gungxi and declare that while their search for the Elxir of Immortality has proven false, they have come up with a solution that could retake the life of the nation from the clutches of the new leader. The Navaro Kai academy is mostly abandoned and many Kai reset upat the unfinished Academy of Pei.

Gungixao asks how they might be able to do this, seeing that Taijoau is a fellow OTA member.  Even if Gungixao manages to fend off any blatantly Taijan navy vessels, the king would be sure to abuse the OTA agreement and weaponize merchant vessels, which could cause other OTA members to intervene.

There are already several Wereuan Generals, many of which are the same whom had put the current leader in power, that have become disgruntled given his current policies, it is projected that at least one third of the military forces would be able to be utilized against the state.

The state has currently not shown much interest in appeasing OTA policy including setting unreasonably high tax rates.

The natives state that they are unwilling to leave their homes, especially to move to such a place in turmoil.

Their relocation would not be necessary, just their assurance of not interfering with state services. As part of the nation they would receive benefits such as medical assistance and protection from piracy.


In response to recent attempts on his life, Gungxi relocated the capitol to Roussa, the city in the Navaro Province (in the center the norther/central circular bit which I keep referring too but I think was overlooked in map updates edit: a better approximation of its location is directly due south of the the most southeastern Ashkylian city lined up with the bit that bumps out into the missing section of mountain territory to the west of that if that makes it any more clear). Due to it's proximity to the Navaro Kai university which has historically proven unseigable, that he may retreat to the academy for safety in times of need.


And a minor note, The Mawahe bit doesnt mention they use fire wherein my nations history they are the whole reason I got fire shenanigans so early, and I know it was mentioned back when Wereu was still present so I just wanna put it out there thanks

Several ex-Rustuffe personnel request a meeting with the leaders of Gungixao to discuss the intervention of the situations in the Ru Gulf by the Oriental Crowns. They propose joining with already disgruntled forces from many sides (including a large portion of Wereuans whom are upset with them putting in power a king so against their beliefs) within the kingdom on usurping the current mad king. In return, there could be a pact arranged where the resultant country would pledge allegiance to the Crowns and aid them to the best of their ability.


Rustuffe Naval forces surround the Nuwatha Islands (the two still un-updated islands I had been calling them Nuwatha since when I had Mahowaeae but when I dropped them I meant for them to be unanimous as well, its ok cause they are so small it would make sense they didnt make much of a blip citystate wise anyways off the coast of the Wereu Province) and envoys land on shore demanding the islands return to their founding nation (Taijoua, being the current embodyment thereof) and allow the use of the islands for naval services including the conduction of trade along the region and the defense of the waters by pirates.

No I mean you stated him as a monk before you stated he had a wife, so I'm more wondering if he was some kind of excommunicated monk or something.

Hey, I'm just going about the brown townogy. It could be he gave up the monk lifestyle upon being appointed ruler and took a wife during this time.

Ezbátu contacts Taijoau with intention of purchasing Atlantia in full.  (Wondering why it's not called 'Esticia' because of the ocean nearby, but w/e)

The name was chosen during an alliance with Atensia, the name being signficant once the world expanded and they were no longer able to trade to that city when it was previously the furthest major land they saw, allowing it to become a place in their psuedogreekness as a psuedoatlantis.

Anyways, the current administrative head of state lord buddha humbly declines the offer stating the island being off too signficant of a cultural importance to simply sell off. That said, they will allow Ezbátuthe same deal of co-governance that they are allowed to administer to their own citizens set up on the island.

Gungxi orders the military to secure the borders and prevent citizens from escaping without either paying a tax to leave the nation or having a notification of allowance of passage from the state. Citizens without these are captured and brought back to the nearest major cities where they are put to work on state farms.


Gungxi has his wife slain after she was supposedly caught sympathizing with the Baoist refugees.
