Hashijima is a small island in the eastern Cantalle Ocean that is a foreign territory of Zoygaria. Inhabited by various cultures for tens of thousands of years, including Yuaneze, Emansian, and Sanpian empires, the modern settlements on Hashijima were originally utilized as a way point between the Zoygarian mainland and its Ausianan colonies.
