Hopearma, pronounced Hope-arma, (also known as the Archapeligo of Hopearma) is a country on Osiris that consists of six main islands, with over 120 smaller islands. It is placed along the equator, giving it tropical features and only two seasons, known as the wet season and the dry season. The country is quite isolated from the rest of the world, with Eveannia and Uliessa surrounding it which are quite a distance away from the country.

History

Pre-Discovery

With the use of radiocarbondating, Hopearma has been placed to first exist along with the beginning of Osiris, however was only discovered in 1023 AD.

During it's 1023 years of not being discovered, Hopearma already had a civilization known as the Maisamas, which where formed by a band of humans who where sailing to discover the seas but eventually became shipwrecked on the island and begun building a civilization.

Not much is currently known about the Maisamas history. One of the most known parts of the history is the Zodiac War, when Hopearma's dictatorship failed and fell into ruin. When the former leader passed away, Ballam Zoran dictated himself into the position of authority. Whilst in authority, Ballam turned the country into chaos and caused many riots and dead civilians. The population began to overthrow the authority and caused much ruckus within the country. It took two year to overthrow Ballam and once he was killed, the country went into a democracy.

Post-Discovery

Since it's second discovery and joining the modern world of Osiris, Hopearma has become one of the most popular holiday destinations for people seeking a tropical island retreat, in which it makes much of it's profit off of. The country has also become well known for trading as it grows some of the most fresh tropical produce.

The country is also heavily invested in it's history with Ballam Zoran and making sure a dictatorship doesn't happen once again in the country.
