The Western Isles of Naybra, more commonly referred to as Naybra (NAY), the Western Isles, or simply the Isles is a federal constitutional republic, consisting of eight states, each a major island, plus one federal district. All eight islands reside in Hemithea, north the Equator and just southwest of the continent of Euryphaessa. The climate and geography of Naybra is mainly tropical, consisting of three different biomes: tropical rain forest, tropical dry forest, and tropical savanna. The nation's warm and moist climate provide ideal conditions for tourism, the second-largest source of income for the Western Isles.
Naybra was inhabited by eight native Naybran tribes prior to its discovery. These eight tribes had separated themselves among the islands based culture and traditions, but they all worshiped similar gods and spoke slightly different dialects of the same language, which came to be known as Ancient Naybrian. In DATE, Lucile Auffenberg, an explorer of the Artisian Empire, discovered the Isles after a miscalculation in the vessels' course. Realizing that they had run-aground on new land, Lucile Auffenberg notified the Artisian Empire, and began to survey the new land. After receiving the message, a colonial force was sent to colonize the Isles three months later. The later part of the 15th century was taken to fully map and record Naybra and its inhabitants. The Western Isles of Naybra became an official colony of the Artisian Empire on DATE.
When the Artisian Empire collapsed in DATE to the rise of the Gillenor Empire, Naybra was absorbed and became a part of this newly predominant power. As the Gillenor Empire continued to grow, Naybra benefited greatly from its culture and protection. With new ideas, concepts, and technology being introduced by the influx of colonists, Naybra's standards of living were vastly improved. This period, known as the Naybran Renaissance continued after the Gillenor Empire's passing of the Colonial Departments Act of 1768. Through the decades, Naybra served as one of Empire's largest agriculture producers, much thanks to the vast abundance of natural materials and its diverse local wildlife. Naybra continued to supply the Gillenor Empire with many exotic goods and products, leading to the increase of in the colony's importance.
On October 8, 1806, the The Lowlandian Revolution began with the assassination of Willem II of Orange-Galice. In response, the Gillenor Empire mobilized the Naybran Colonial Army, administered by HM Colonial Office, to reinforce the local NL Colonial Army and protect the Empire's assets in the area. This war introduced Naybra to an industrial revolution, switching from harvesting foods and materials to manufacturing war machines. The Naybran Colonial Army faced many hardships during the war, including guerrilla-style attacks by rebel forces and the failed invasion of Batavia which lasted from late 1814 to early 1815. In January of 1815, delegates from the Gillenor Empire and the New Lowlands met in the capital of the New Lowlands, to negotiate a peace treaty. On January 30, 1816, TREATY NAME was signed by both delegations, essentially ending the conflict. Though they had suffered defeat, the Gillenor Empire rewarded Naybra for its patriotism and sacrifice for the Crown.
