Ainu Republic

The Ainu Republic was a country located in Hokkaido, in the Northeast corner of the map. The Ainu Republic was named after the Ainu, native to Hokkaido, the Kuril Islands, Southern Sakhalin, and Northern Honshu. Due to the low population, player SkinOfChild was not able to claim the Kuril Islands. Thus, the Ainu Republic is restricted to Hokkaido alone. Due to the small size of the Ainu Republic, and SkinOfChild's inability to PvP well, the Ainu Republic choose to remain neutral and peaceful as possible, making alliances with its neighbors, as well as the Republic of Mendel Islands.

The Republic only had the city of Sat Poro Pet, however the cities of Hakodate, Wakkanai, and Kushiro-Nemuro were planned. In Sat Poro Pet, one could see 1 house, inhabited by SkinOfChild, a restaurant, and a hotel, along with a garden across the small stream and a few farms here and there. Beyond such, forests and former forests logged (albeit poorly) by Japan. Just outside of Sat Poro Pet there lied a small port, with a single boat owned by SkinOfChild.

The Ainu economy was mostly self sufficient, with Ainu farming consisting of Sweet Berries, Wheat, Potatoes, Carrots, Melons, Pumpkins, and Sugar Cane. As such, the Ainu Republic was able to sell Paper, Sugar, Melons, Pumpkins, and Sweet Berries from the farms. The Ainu Republic also had Wood and Tourism as other markets. However, most other players had pointed out that, because these items are rather basic, most will not buy them, which seemed to be true. Furthermore, SkinOfChild sometimes went on expeditions in North America for fish, wood, and cactus, adding to the Ainu Republic's supplies.

SkinOfChild attempted to gain citizens of the Ainu Republic, but efforts were fruitless. SkinOfChild was open to anyone joining the nation.
