Canespa: Difference between revisions

The reign of the [[Wasi King]] lasted for ages, and it brought relative prosperity to area. The country slowly expanded in a small series of conflicts that shaped the modern borders of Canespa. This was a quiet time in Canespian history with not much going on. the threat of colonizers was on the rise but none had expressed much interest in Canespian land. There was a brief civil war between Canespa's south and its north over if the houses should even remain united with the threat of colonizers being a seemingly far one.  

During the {{wp|Age of Sail}} [[Canespa]] and the [[Maritime Dericania|Maritime Deric]] [[Duchy of Martilles]] formed an alliance that guaranteed that no [[Occidental]] power would try to colonize [[Canespa]]. This economic and military alliance would go on to greatly influence Canespian history and it would influence the rise of the Canasta Company. Though the original alliance was vary primative compared to its current state. It is still was ended up saving Canespa as it held off any threat of colonization while also giving Canespa time to modernize on its own in a natural process that took centuries but would eventually pay off. Additionally Canespa would eventually start to modernize economically as industries and large companies began to form. This is the birth of the Canasta Company.  

in 1659 the Canespian Houses were conducting a fairly ordinary yearly ritual to pray to [[Makuahine]] (Mother Nature) and her givings. This would have been an event that could barely be mentioned but during the ritual [[House Kanchi]] brought a tomato (There main crop) to the ritual instead of the mandated Potato that this specific ritual mandated. This lead to House Papa being deeply enraged. Thus leaving the country on the verge of civil war. If it wasn't for the other houses stepping in and stopping it, it could have ended Canespa. As a peace deal [[House Kanchi]] and [[House Papa]] made a new dish mixing both tomatoes and potatoes in an elegant blend that stunned administrators and even the Wasi King himself with its savory and beautiful taste. Though this dish has been lost to history its taste is said to still linger in the mouths of all Canespians.   

The state has a mild connection to the religion. The [[Wasiexu]] is required to follow [[M'acunism]]. While other executives are not required to follow the religion, they all do. [[M'acunism]] in [[Canespa]] has held strong against Christian missionaries for centuries. This has been thanks to the belief that all the stories of the bible are centralized to one location, and do not reflect the actions of an all powerful being. It is also thanks to the isolationism that [[Canespa]] took part in for centuries that this school spread.

Although [[Canespa]] is not known for its music it has a couple notable country artists. Its mainly known for its artistic 3d sculptures made up of many things from nature including fruits and vegetables, grass, flowers, and even dirt held together with preservatives to stop the food from going bad. These sculptures are known as [[Rurukuna Rikuchiy]]. The largest known piece of rurukuna rikuchiy was made and sculpted at the entrance of [[Hamuq City]].

The Potato Flower is the main symbol of the country and is the logo of the [[Canasta Company]]. It is also used to represent the Nature School of [[M'acunism]]. The first use of this as a symbol of [[Canespa]] was in 1198 when [[House Papa]] carved the flower into there war canoes. The use continued and eventually spread to other houses before becoming the man symbol of the [[Wasi King]] and his power. It was and still is a fashion for girls to wear a potato flower in there hair. The flower is even used in the seal of [[Canespa]].
