Tolu Manatu Incident: Difference between revisions

The '''Tolu Manatu Incident''' was a short armed conflict between the Queendom of [[Lotoa|Tolu Manatu]] and an expedition of [[Daxia]]n adventurers led by Captain Huang Mao that took place in 1661. The increasingly frequent encounters between [[Daxia]]n and [[Sarpedon]]ian vessels in the [[Polynesian Sea]] in the aftermath of [[Pelaxian discovery of the sea route to Alshar|Gabo de Pogiano's voyage]] set off a race between the various powers to secure an advantage against the others by seizing the local islands and atolls. After the seizure of [[Zhijun]] in 1593 the [[Daxia]]n court was focused on; through its [[South Seas Development Company|South Seas Trading Company]] proxy, expanding and securing its hold over modern day [[Stenza]] but would also act opportunistically to seize other islands given the chance.
