The Republic of Masiora (Masioran: ꦫꦼꦥꦸꦧ꧀ꦭꦶꦏ꧀ ꦩꦱꦶꦎꦫ, Republik Masiora) is an Unrecognised state in the north of the Socialist Republic of Kabu. No countries recognise the Republic of Masiora as an independent nation as it is recognised as being part of South Kabu by most nations. The largest city and capital is Kutha Buwono.
The independence of the Republic of Masiora was declared on 27 July 1986 by Masioran Nationalists. An ongoing armed conflict between the RSK and Masiora has been occurring since the declaration of independence. Most fighting in Masiora has ceased although violence occasionally flares up, the conflict is regarded as being a stalemate between the South Kabuese armed forces and Masioran fighters. According to South Kabu, North Kabu is responsible for financing and smuggling weapons into the state, a charge which North Kabu has denied.
Since 2002, attempts at negotiating a ceasefire and reintegration with South Kabu have been ongoing. In 2013 an agreement to reintegrate the state was signed by South Kabu and the Masioran Foreign Minister was signed although as of 2018 no steps have been made towards reintegration.
