Arbor, officially the Emirate of Arbor, (Arborian: إمارة أربور) is a sovereign nation located on the Arbor Isles, in the Eastern Ocean. The capital is Al-Humra, located on the largest island of the archipelago.
The Emirate of Arbor pursues a strictly isolated policy. Access to the country is very limited. On an artificial island south of the capital, called ‘Jazirat 'Uwyastar’ (Arborian: جزيرة أويستر), there is an international port and airport. This is in fact the only gateway to the country. Any other way someone tries to enter the country is punishable by death.
The Arbor Islands are seen as lone and mysterious islands on Micras. The isolation policy of the Emirate of Arbor plays a role in that image, but in Micras' history the island hardly plays a role at all. This may change with the foundation of the Emirate of Arbor.
Name
The name "Arbor" was given to the archipelago during the Storish era. The name is Catalog for 'trees', referring to dense forestation on the islands. With the foundation of the Emirate that name was used for this new state.
History
Arbor Spring
In the disastrous year of 1685, the very young Franco-Batavian Empire shook its foundations. A plot to overthrow the Kaiser von Francia and King of Batavia was carried out. At the same time, the ancient High Realm of Stormark fell and disappeared from Micras. A power vacuum arose.
On the way to Batavian Cibola, Arkadius Frederik Gustavus of Vinandy was poisoned. A bottle of whiskey he received from a loyal friend contained poison. This put the Kaiser in a coma. Because the Imperial Frankish Guard had not checked this bottle, a power struggle arose with the Tassity Mansabdar. The plane with the Kaiser and his family was therefore flown to the Arbor Isles. That archipelago was a jarldom of Stormark, which had not long before been granted to the Kaiser.
The chaos was complete when communication with the outside world was cut off. The Frankish Empire became ungovernable because the Kaiser and the Regent were missing. The Chancellor was shot, the Amokolian Highlanders turned against the Franks. In Batavia it was still possible to keep the country together on the continent of Benacia. But Arcadia, Batavian Cibola and Helderbourgh ceased to exist.
The remaining loyal troops of the Tassity Mansabdar together with the loyal Imperial Frankish Army formed a new force: the Muharibu Alhuriya (Arborian: محاربو الحرية). To protect their Kaiser, the Arbor Isles were isolated and cut off from the outside world. This created a new state, which sees itself as the only legitimate successor to the Frankish Empire: the Emirate of Arbor. The comatose Kaiser was declared an emir.
