Etymology
The islands are named after the person who explored the islands, Jami Davinson who set off in 1609 and never returned to Daau as he remained at the islands for the rest of his life.

In 1609, the then newly freed Daau would send off Jami Davinson to find new land for them to conquer and possibly colonize for Daau.

As the islands were the first thing Jami saw in sight and saw how big the group of island was, he declared that his voyage would stop here and this would be his biggest project ever.
Davinson would land in Shore Sandy, modern day Sandy Beach, west of the Mountain Tuan. Along with his team and a group of explorers. The group would setup their camp further inland whilst exploring the surrounding areas. He would name the island Tuan as it means Luck in Matabese.
Following the successful exploration on the outer islands which were found out to be uninhabited, the team would plant Dauian flags on the shore. They would set sail to T'awtai Island next in hopes of expanding the region. Only Tuan and T'awtai were described as livable.
Tuan was found out to be the home of the Awtese, the original tribesmen who lived on the island. Jami and his team would live and explore with them and would slowly learn more about the island whilst making new friends. Jami also married a local Awtese woman. Davinson would remain in the island till the end of his life as others set sail to return.
Jami sent a group of returnees from the exploration to inform Daau of the success of exploration and they would arrive in 1610 and were crowned as local heroes following their return from their exploration, current Daau international Jensen Roland's great grandfather was a part of those that returned. Daau would send a small group of people to setup the Dauian control and a local government in 1623. The project was declared successful as the locals understood how it worked and slowly incorperated into a modern society. Daau would however withdraw from the island 2 years later as they deemed it too unstable to keep such a territory whilst being thousands of miles away.
The region was then released into a free country following the withdrawal.
In 2022, James Valt would win the nationwide election, beating former President Kenedy Mooresail in a landslide.
