Archeological evidence suggests that the [[Shauku Archipelago]] was settled around 800,000 years ago by hunter-gatherer peoples who made use of stone and clamshell tools. These people had a mostly plant-based diet with monkey and fish flesh entering their repertoire around 50,000 years ago. Agriculture is first recorded around 15,000 years ago, but it was light due to the thick jungle vegetation. Domesticated dogs and pigs were also evidenced in this period as well. In the 4th century BCE, with the introduction of rudimentary sail technology, to the paddled dugout canoes used by the islanders, the outer islands of the [[Shauku archipelago]] became settled. There was light Oyashimane settlement since roughly 200 BC. | |||

The Battle of the Shauku Islands was an ancillary engagement during the [[Final War of the Deluge]], fought between March and May of [[2021]]. The [[Varshan]]i naval contingent on the [[Shauku Archipelago]] was considered a liability as it could attack from the rear during the ground invasion of [[Varshan]] proper and the allied command determined that it needed to be eliminated. The combined forces of [[Daxia]] and [[Alstin]], were tasked to launched an invasion of the archipelago. | The Battle of the Shauku Islands was an ancillary engagement during the [[Final War of the Deluge]], fought between March and May of [[2021]].

A joint naval invasion by Alstinian and Daxian forces pushed Varshan's forces from the islands and brought an end to its rule there. A period of popular resistance driven by Arzalist priests followed. The Daxian military enacted brutal mass reprisals and deportations that however succeded in quieting down the situation. Civilian varshani administrators were summarily dismissed, Arzalist shrines shuttered and all public gatherings of over three people prohibited. Whatever produce was imported from the mainland was requisitioned by the army to supplement its rations, the locals were introduced to a new diet consisting of disgusting [[Daxian Aspic|aspic]] food rations courtesy of [[Agario]]. Four months after introduction, there was a riot at a food distribution center in which twenty tons of aspic rations were set on fire. Daxian rule of the unruly islanders was becoming more expensive and less advantageous than previously thought. | A joint naval invasion by Alstinian and Daxian forces pushed Varshan's forces from the islands and brought an end to its rule there.
