Before the arrival of Euclean settlers, the islands were home to {{wp|Taíno|Nati}} tribes scattered across the mountainous terrain. The island was discovered during the voyage of the Gaullican explorer [[Auguste de Antibes]], who named it after the Queen of [[Gaullica]], [[Anne the Financier]]. It was colonized by Gaullica in 1520, who established a port on the southern coast of the island. Despite the island’s excellent position as a trading hub, the island’s extremely mountainous terrain and relatively poor soil discouraged the large scale production of cash crops. Thus slave plantations were limited and the only notable settlements outside of the port city of [[Deux Ports]], were various churches that dedicated to “civilizing” the native population of the islands. Nevertheless the island was home to one of the great ports of the Arucian Strait, which continued for the next several centuries. | Before the arrival of Euclean settlers, the islands were home to {{wp|Taíno|Nati}} tribes scattered across the mountainous terrain.

Carucere (Gaullican: Caruquère, Caruceran Creole: Karukure), formally known as the Republic of Carucere (Gaullican: République d' Caruquère, Caruceran Creole: Repiblik d Karukure), also known as Île de Reine-Anne (Queen Anne's Island), is a small island nation located in southern Asteria Superior in the Aurucian Strait. It shares maritime borders with Sainte-Chloé to the west, Imagua and the Assimas to the north, and Aucuria to the east and south.
Before the arrival of Euclean settlers, the islands were home to Nati tribes scattered across the mountainous terrain. The island was discovered during the voyage of the Gaullican explorer Auguste de Antibes, who named it after the Queen of Gaullica, Anne the Financier. It was colonized by Gaullica in 1520, who established a port on the southern coast of the island. Despite the island’s excellent position as a trading hub, the island’s extremely mountainous terrain and relatively poor soil discouraged the large scale production of cash crops. Thus slave plantations were limited and the only notable settlements outside of the port city of Deux Ports, were various churches that dedicated to “civilizing” the native population of the islands. Nevertheless the island was home to one of the great ports of the Arucian Strait, which continued for the next several centuries.
The island became a major hub of pirate activity during the Golden Age of Piracy from the late 17th century to the early 18th century. The island’s rugged northern coastline served as safe bases for pirates to operate. Gaulician rule of the island collapsed during the Ten Years War in Euclea, resulting in the brief establishment of a pirate republic in 1712. The island's society would be significantly influenced by the pirate code, a ban on slavery, and the migration of freed Bahian slaves to the island. While Gaullica regained control of the island's coast, it faced a hostile interior populated by former slaves and pirates; this lack of control continued far into the 20th century. After the Great War, ownership of the island was stripped from Gaullica's possession and transferred to a joint Allied commission which later established the Arucian Federation, consisting of Sainte-Chloé and Carucere. In 1945, Carucere and Sainte-Chloé formed a federation with Imagua and the Assimas, forming the United Provinces of the Western Arucian Islands. During Sainte-Chloé’s secession from the United Provinces, the people of Carucere declared independence.
The new republic was characterized by political dysfunction and ethnic tensions between the Euclean elite and the rest of the population. In 1961, a clique of white officers within the military launched a coup when it appeared a leftist party would win the country's second election. The military junta would be overthrown two years later by moderate elements of the military led by Jean Préval.

However geographical disparities between the richer coast and the poorer interior with income inequality and standards of living are very visible. Despite the collapse of the dominant party system, the country continues to struggle with pervasive government corruption and a patronage system.
