Huadao is an island in the Trade Islands area that is part of Urcea.

Prior to the 19th century, Huadao was inhabited on an inconsistent basis, and it was claimed by Daxia. The island was rich in guano deposits. Following Urcea's acquisition of Rapa Rapa, it was able to project naval power into the Ocean of Cathay, and the guano-rich island became a possible target for expansion. Urcea took the island from Daxia in the Guano War and began mining operations while also colonizing the island. In the early 20th century, most of the accumulated guano was depleted, but the island remained economically viable due to trade with Alshar and other parts of the Trade Islands, as well as its importance as a coaling station.

Etymology

"Huadao" is the Daxian language name for the island, meaning "Flower Island". This name is used for various applications related to the island, including "Flower City", the Cathedral City of the island.
