Auroa, officially the Republic of Auroa (Nordic: Republik Auroa, Aōtean: Repupirita o Aoroa), is a country located in Siduri in Tyran. It is bordered to the west by Knichus.
Auroa has been inhabited by various tribes of the Aōtean people, from whose name the country's native name Aoroa originates, since antiquity. Little is known about ancient Auroa, as the Aōtea traditionally relied on oral history until the 6th century. The first documented account of Auroa comes from a Symmerian traveler named ____, who wrote about his experiences with the Aōtea in 581. Auroa remained largely isolated from other nations for much of the middle ages due as part of an active effort by the Aōtea, though written records from both Auroa and other countries attest that foreigners still traveled through Auroa often during this time. Auroa's relative isolation ended when Acrean naval officer Alexander Kjølaas arrived in the country with a flotilla of warships and negotiated the Treaty of Kauaeranga with the Ngāti Maru clan. The Treaty opened Maru territory to Acrean trade and visits, and established a diplomatic mission in their capital of Kauaeranga. Although other clans gradually opened their lands as well, the Maru quickly became the most powerful clan in Auroa due to their new wealth and rapid adoption of firearms.
History
Auroa has traditionally been divided into territory controlled by various clans. The Aōtea largely resisted foreign influence into their lands, desiring to preserve their traditional culture and often had strict controls on trade, though some tribes were more open than others. Auroa's relative isolation ended in 1489 with the arrival of Alexander Kjølaas, an Acrean naval officer leading a flotilla of four Acrean warships. Kjølaas landed at the major Aōtean coastal city of Kauaeranga. In negotiations with the Ngāti Maru, the clan which ruled that region, Kjølaas delivered the request that they open their land to foreign trade and relations. In addition to being a symbolic message, Kjølaas's warships also carried a large volume of goods intended as demonstrations and gifts including firearms and gunpowder. After a month of talks, the Ngāti Maru agreed to open their capital city to Acrean trade and signed the Treaty of Kauaeranga. In addition to establishing trade, the Treaty also allowed the establishment of a diplomatic mission in Kauaeranga. This mission was established by Kjølaas after he returned to the country in 1491, and he was appointed as an ambassador to the Ngāti Maru in 1492.
