Quixmican

Quixmican (:, Kíšmikan; : 大車蠔岛, Daaichehoudou), officially the State of Quixmican (: , Kíšmikan Šĕkūyš; : 大車蠔岛 國; Daaichehoudou Gwok), is a country in the Chehou Islands, west of Cheongju in the Southern Ocean. It is made up of three main islands and borders Kumucachi, Nambo, and the Meisaani territory of Kaadung by sea.

Formative period
Quixmican was home to the earliest civilizations in the Chehou Islands, arising in the first millennium BCE.

Sipan period
The Sipan Empire dominated the archipelago from 100-700 CE and is still renowned for its artistic accomplishments.

Yampellec period
Power shifted to the southern islands with the arrival of the Polynesians in Haumaka and the rise of the Antu kingdom but Quixmican remained an important trading link with the rest of Cheongju.

Chayhuac period
The Chayhuac Empire rose to dominate the island in the 1200s and for a time was Antu’s main rival.

Antu period
Chayhuac was eventually defeated and vassalized by Antu.

Cholan period
Quixmican broke free in the 1700s amidst Antu’s destabilization by Hokanese colonialism.

Meisaani period
Quixmican's independence was short-lived and it was soon itself colonized by Meisaan until it gained its independence in the 1960s.

Independence
Today it is a relatively poor and moderately repressive nation that is often considered a Nambo satellite state, and a site of proxy conflict between Nambo influence and communist agitation backed by Kumucachi and Qichwallanqa.
