Following the abandonment of the Far East Colony in 1817 by the Marialanii Ularien Trading Company the native Oyashi daimyos and ambitious Matsutori mainlanders formed various factions and started fighting to control the territory. One such faction was the Republic of Matsutori, a short lived Occidental-inspired republic beset by domestic political divisions and ethnic tensions, and foreign territorial encroachments and diplomatic pressure. | |||
During the 1850s, under the of command the Zurg Tezomoc, Varshan initiated a multiyear-long naval expedition to the Shauku Archipelago, thoroughly defeating the Matsutorine forces in the region and rendering Matsutori control over the islands unfeasible. With the conquest of the Archipelago, Varshan had a foothold in the Far East of Audonia, and would occupy the islands for the next 170 years. | |||
