| Kuvayama Island Date of independence: August 765 (from the Mirai Empire) Form of government: elective theocracy High Priestess: Kaname Rio Currency: Jewel, Sen. History In the past, several independent kingdoms existed on the territory of the Yamato Islands, but over time they were all united into the Mirai Empire, including the country that once occupied the territory of Kuvayama Island. Over the centuries, the original culture of this country faded from the pages of history and was replaced by imperial traditions and customs. Nevertheless, loyalty to the imperial house and the culture of Mirai on Kuvayama has always been somewhat lower than on other islands, and so with the arrival of Artherian missionaries, the island's inhabitants gladly embraced a faith that seemed appealing to them. During the era of turmoil in the years 757-769, when imperial authority struggled against regional rulers and sought to consolidate its grip on the governance of the country, the inhabitants of Kuvayama Island refused to accept the rule of the imperial house, along with its militarism, religious-moral intolerance, aversion to foreigners, and much more. They declared their independence in August 765 after a brief military conflict with the support of Artherian nations. Form of Government On the island, the activity of Artheria's priestesses in the life of the state is even more important than in other Artherian countries. Future priestesses are trained in the arts of song, dance, and other skills, after which they take part in performances, travel across the country to resolve various matters as representatives of the church and government, provide assistance to residents, etc. Moreover, the country maintains a national priestly ranking, while the most popular priestess among the people becomes High Priestess for a term of five years. The High Priestess acts as the face and leader of the island, yet relies heavily on more experienced members of the government — also elected by the people of Kuvayama. According to unconfirmed information, the High Priestesses of Kuvayama, like Empress Airisufir, possess greater spiritual powers than ordinary priestesses. Economy The strongest sectors of the island's economy are tourism, the entertainment industry, and printing. Kuvayama is renowned for its luxurious resorts, pristine beaches, and courteous, attentive service staff. Despite being modest in size compared to more influential states, Kuvayama prints the lion's share of Visteria's fiction literature. The visual arts flourish here, as does, more recently, the art of photography. The same can be said of the fashion industry: products and cosmetics from mainland Visteria, particularly Miwa, enjoy widespread popularity on Kuvayama and are now produced by local brands. In some ways, Kuvayama is a direct competitor to Miwa, though no friction between the two countries has been observed thus far. Culture The island's inhabitants are highly respectable, distinguished by exceptional energy, and always ready to help their neighbors. The islanders' favorite pastimes include reading literature, attending concerts and fairs, and, of course, shopping. On the island's Independence Day, which is a national holiday in Kuvayama, it is customary to visit shops to purchase pleasant things for oneself and one's loved ones, as well as to indulge in various forms of entertainment. The society of Kuvayama is founded on Artherian love and tolerance, yet one should not underestimate them: they will defend their freedom and way of life to the very last.
