Truk

Truk or the Truk islands is a territory of the Republic of Daxia consisting of an archipelago with six islands. The islands are Iman, Hutau, Sinta, Chunma, Anako and Parapo. The archipelago is located on the eastern end of the Polynesian Sea far to the southwest of Vallos. The islands saw the rise of the independent muslim Emirate of Truk in the 13th century before its conquest 400 years later by Daxia during the capture of Truk. Today the islands are an important waystation for oceanic trade between eastern Audonia and Sarpedon and Vallos and also a tourist destination for visitors from mainland Daxia. The local economy is mostly dependent on tourism, commercial fishing and ship insurance services; the traditional saltpeter industry mostly drying up in the 19th century due to failing mines. Truk has long had an autonomous government, which has contributed greatly to social and political stability and also the thriving of political Islam on the island. The island is currently governed by the People's Justice Party with the PCD as junior coalition partner.
