The Tabulu Islands, officially the Commonwealth Republic of the Tabulu Islands, is a nation located in the [[Paisi Island Chain]]. It consists of 1 main island ([[Ka'fua]]), 3 minor islands ([[Tajam]], [[Fa'rika]], [[Pukica]]), and many smaller, uninhabited islands. The capital city is [[Fort Ka'kua]]. It is widely accepted that the original settlers were the [[Mo'vakai'i]] people of whom settled down in Tabulu an estimated 4,200 years ago, although some classical scholars dispute this theory.

=Etymology=
The Tabulu Islands is a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federation Federal] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitution Constitutional] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/President_(government_title) Presidential] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic Republic], consisting of 12 [[Politics Of Tabulu| administrative divisions]]. It is a member of the [[Torvonese Commonwealth]], and has recently been accepted into the [[Sekidean Union]] as an associate state. As of 2019, [[Ocan T'fika]] has been the president of the nation.
Tabulu's earliest naming can be traced back to the [[Tabuluan_Language|Tabuluan]] words for island and moon. "Ta'abu" is the Tabuluan word for island (lit. Ocean Land). "Liu" is the Tabuluan word for crescent, however has been appropriated to mean moon. The Torvonese spelling of Tabulu is "Tabjulu." While Tabulu is the recognized title of the region, many natives of the islands call Tabulu "Fu'lokatu" which translates to homeland. Further, in spite of Tabulu being the official name, Common speakers will often use the word "Tabula" instead of Tabulu, primarily due to naming conventions from the 19th century.
 
The Tabulu Islands has had strong support from the Torvonese government following its independence. The Torvonese Government invests over 300 million dollars into Tabulu each year, as well as maintaining a naval military prescence on Ka'fua. While many [[Tabuluan Nationalism|Tabuluan Nationalists]] claim that the Torvonese should be ejected for crimes commit during the colonial period, this sentiment is not widespread and many Tabuluans have accepted the apology offered by the Torvonese government.

==Early Torvonese Expiditions==
The first people to discover Tabulu were the [[Mo'vakai'i]] peoples in roughly 4,200 BCE. The first skeletons and burial sites were found 15 miles inland from the [[Ka'kua Bay]]. Because of the absence of a written language in Mo'vakai'i culture, the way that the Tabuluans have been traced is primarily through [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetics genetics] and trade with the other Mo'vakai'i peoples.

===Crown Colony of Tabulu===
The Tabuluans were far less populated than the other, Northern island chains, although that is not to say that they were unpopulated. However, because of their position as a 'frontier' island, populations rarely migrated, and much of Tabuluan culture became stagnant because of this.
===Crown Autonomy of Tabulu===
 
====1907 Revolution====
The first Kings of Tabulu were of the [[Fa'kido]] line, in roughly 200 CE. The Fa'kido line would marry into the other Paisi Islander nations towards the North, causing them to become much more important. The Fa'kido line would maintain a large amount of power over Tabulu up until the Torvonese Colonization.

==Contemporary History==
In the year 1689, Torvonese Explorers would discover the Tabuluans. Torvonese descriptions of the people describe them as being "ashen-haired, with skin like a pig's." This may be in reference to the natural toughness and hairiness of ethnic Tabuluans, although this claim is disputed as it may have just been discrimination. While the Torvonese would eventually leave the islands, many Tabuluans claimed that the Gods were warning them; that the explorers were messages from the Gods, telling them to change their ways. This sentiment was localized, however, and the Torvonese did not immediately settle. Instead, the Torvonese introduced them to the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin_alphabet Latin alphabet], resulting in increased trade. In 1763, with the permission of King [[Ra'kumunki Fa'kido]], Torvonese settlers were permitted to begin building their own cities independent of the Tabuluans. However, this would lead to confliuct between the Tabuluans and Torvonese people, especially as the Torvonese began to claim the overwhelming majority of the Islaands. By 1793, the Tabuluans were forced to either live in Torvonese cities, or live in the jungle with no houses.

From 1842 until 1979, Torvon maintained partial control over Tabulu in a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual_monarchy dual monarchy]. While the kings and queens of Tabulu maintained autonomy, they were not permitted into Torvonese settlements and the Torvonese kings ultimately dictated the laws. While minor conflict was present because of this, the kings often worked together. One famous example is the [[Tabuluan Housing Act]] of 1861, in which Native Tabuluans were finally permitted to live in Torvonese-built cities. While slight racism continued throughout, many Torvonese who lived in Tabulu gradually came to live alongside them instead of above them.

Between 1845 and 1847, roughly 60% of the population contracted the disease and 8% died because of it. While Tabuluans of the time attributed the illness to the Anger of the Gods, Torvonese evangelicals used this as proof of 'the true God,' claiming that the plague was only affecting the natives for their paganism.

Education and employment are recognized largely as high priorities of the government, with a literacy rate of 99.8 percent and an employment rate of 3.8 percent. Many workers are employed in the countries' wind energy programmes, as well as working in the tourism industry.

Tabulu's earliest naming can be traced back to the Tabuluan words for island and moon. "Ta'abu" is the Tabuluan word for island (lit. Ocean Land). "Liu" is the Tabuluan word for crescent, however has been appropriated to mean moon. The Torvonese spelling of Tabulu is "Tabjulu."
