The Tagaplo people arrived in the Caruban peninsula in 900 BC. They settled in the Lusong archipelago, the group of islands north of the peninsula. Early Vulkarian states introduced the Tagaplo to a sedentary, agrarian lifestyle. In the 6th Century, the Tagaplo migrated to the mainland peninsula. The remaining tribes in the Lusong Islands maintained their sea-nomad traditions. In the mainland, the Tagaplo founded thalassocracies in large, stone-walled settlements. During the Warring City-States period (1500-1850), Vulkarian warlords conquered Caruban and formed the Republic of Strackenz. Drambenburgian-speaking Vulkarians colonized the peninsula and assimilated the mainlander Tagaplo. In 1708, the Skithan Empire invaded Caruban to secure trade routes in the Samson Ocean. After the Zamastan War of Independence, Skithan enacted colonial reform to maintain its other colonial possessions. In Caruban, self-government was enacted in 1807 to prepare the territory's transition to an autonomous parliamentary democracy, finalized in the Carubanese Parliament Act of 1826. Clashes between colonial and Tagpalo politicians culminated into "Vorherrschaft" (Drambenburgian word for "supremacy "), a racist system of minority representation that denied the will of the majority, indigenous population. Vorherrschaft ended in 1960 when Skithan parliament granted Caruban independence. | The Tagaplo people arrived in the Caruban peninsula in 900 BC.
