Whaeamoe (Tikaora: Whenua o Whaeamoe [faeaːmoe]), sometimes referred to as Tikaora (Tikaora: Whenua he Tikaora [tiːkaoɾa]) for its prevailent ethnic group, is a sovereign country in far western Lautania. It is bordered in the north by Cukobai and in the west by the Deris Sea. Whaeamoe is a megadiverse country with habitats ranging from the arid plateaus up to the border to Cukobai in the north to the peaks of the Aotearoa mountains extending along the country's spine to the sub-tropical Huemakuku basins in the west. Whaeamoe's capital city is Tauranga and at the same time resides as the most populous city.
Its geographical boundaries made the area quite remote and lately settled by humans. During its long period of isolationism, Whaeamoe developed a distinct biodiversity of animal, fungal, and plant life. The country's varied topography owe much to the tectonic uplift of land and volcanic eruptions. Despite it being frequently hit with volcanic activity, earthquakes, and tropical typhoons, it endorses the country with an abundance in rare earth metal deposits and large biodiversity found in the distinctive cool wet jungles of Whaeamoe's highlands.
The area to later make up Whaeamoe was first settled by humans just 900 years ago, when x sailors discovered the coastal areas of today Tauranga. According to popular belief, the first settlers noticed the unique shape of the surrounding mountains, resembling a lying women, and named it after what they had seen (Whaea coming from 'sleeping' or 'lying', and moe from 'Mother').
