Overview
San Pedro is located on the Keltian continent, and borders the Captive Sea. Its rich cultural heritage and comfortable climate have made it a popular destination for Caputians on holiday. The strategic location of San Pedro have ensured the survival of the territory both economically, due to the trade hub that has emerged in the Capital port city of Corcovado, as well as militarily due to the presence of the Santa Gertrudis Naval Base.
History
The geographical region currently known as San Pedro originated as the colony of Santa Gertrudis within the Empire of San Martin. After the Cibolan wars, and the fal of San Martin, the region was part of the newly independent confederal state of Santa Gertrudis and Isla Gera, which was founded by Augusto Benavides. The confederacy subsequently underwent several political changes, until it was annexed by the Alexandrian Empire as part of the province of Rio Grande, where it remained until the demise of Alexandria following a devestating national epidemic.
After becoming part of the Caputian Union, San Pedro has kept its destinctive Martinan culture and language. However, its location allowed for a dictatorial government to arise within San Pedro, when Prince Don Juan "the Tiger" Murillo assumed the San Pedrovian throne and demanded the execution of several members of the government, as well as critical members of the public. A short but bloody revolution occured in 1662, disposing Murillo who subsequently fled to the Brettish Isles. Jorge García Alvarez, one of the leading voices of the revolution, was then named Prince of San Pedro, and his reign effectively ended the short-lived dictatorship.
