'''Coribus''' is an island situated in the [[Odoneru Ocean]] | '''Coribus''' is an island situated in the [[Odoneru Ocean]] several hundred kilometers south of [[Kiravia]]. It is considered an [[Possession (Caphiria)|overseas possession]] and territory of [[Caphiria]].The island was developed in the mid-19th century with facilities for a private villa, a military fortification, and a military prison. In 1930, the island was converted into a forced labor camp after the discovery of rare earth metals. The island covers approximately 70 square miles and has an estimated population of 275,000. The capital city, Port Leonoix, is the only major settlement on the island. | ||
The initial inhabitants of Coribus were believed to be predecessors to the [[North Songun civilization]], with their arrival speculated to have been on [[Heaven Ships]]. Over time, these settlers established modest communities across the island. When [[Coscivian civilisation|Coscivian]] merchants discovered the island, they noted its limited fresh water sources, which made extended stays challenging outside the rainy season. Subsequently, the island caught the interest of the Kiravian [[Leonoix family]], who utilized it as a pivotal stopover for ships and a vital resupply point. By 1850, the island transitioned from being a mere maritime hub to a private resort for the [[Faneria|Fanerian]] royalty. Noteworthy during this period is the construction of a desalination plant in 1872, enhancing the water supply for permanent settlers and visitors alike. Following the [[Fhainnin Civil War]], the island became the exclusive property of the monarchy, even serving as a temporary residence for the last [[King of the Fhainn]], [[Antaine Lohr-Mártainn]]. However, in 1918, the island's ownership shifted as it was annexed by Caphiria. | The initial inhabitants of Coribus were believed to be predecessors to the [[North Songun civilization]], with their arrival speculated to have been on [[Heaven Ships]].
