Acadia, officially the Republic of Acadia, is a city-state island located next to the Antarctic Peninsula. The country is known for its modest education; a developing economy (since it is located on one of SABER's branches) average GDP Per Capita, its majorly honest government; its technological growth, its decently high population density, reaching to one of the Sub-Antarctic best doctors, and its predominantly fit penguins, having among the lowest fat levels in Antarctica. The country is independent from the USA, however, the USA influences it highly, meaning that it is a Free Republic. Many of Rockhopper's relatives live in the country.

Prehistory
Due to its close proximity to Club Penguin, Acadia has a similar prehistory. Plant fossils discovered during archaeological excavations suggest that the island was tropical during its prehistory like Club Penguin. Many prehistoric penguin bones were also discovered. The same flood that had killed off life on Club Penguin also killed off life in Acadia, and the island stayed uninhabited for the next few hundred years, and the climate changed, and the island no longer was tropical.

Rediscovery
The island was rediscovered by Batavi High Penguins from Francterre in 500 AD. They immediately started building houses, which grew to become a large village. They named the place Acadia, although it is not known why. Soon, more penguins from the mainland came, and the island became more populated. Penguins started to move away from the town and create farms, since the soil was good for farming.

Growth
Eventually, the High Penguin Confederacy found out about the island, and they quickly annexed it. The High Penguin Confederacy was quick to make the island an important port, due to it's deep natural harbor. The island quickly became a stopover for merchants and traders, who would stop by and sell their goods.

Puffish Rule
The High Penguin Confederacy wasn't the only one to know the importance of the port. Puffle'and knew it too. In 1610, Puffish soldiers took over the island without firing a shot by overwhelming the soldiers who guarded the port. To try and prevent a counter attack, they built many temporary fortifications. The High Penguin Confederacy decided they would lose too many soldiers trying to invade it, so they decided not to attack.

To prevent an attack in the future, the Puffish built Fort Acadia, stone fort with thick walls and what seemed to be impenetrable defenses. To prevent rebellions, they started to expel groups of penguins who refused to swear loyalty to Puffle'and. Their numbers were replaced by penguins from Puffle'and who were persecuted by the Puffish government.

Colonial Antarctica
During Colonial Antarctica, Puffle'and allowed Acadia to keep it's current status, and penguins living in Acadia or had Acadian passports weren't shipped to their respective colonies. However, the island was still taxed, which angered the Acadians, who now wanted independence from Puffle'and.

In 1999, when the Antarctic Revolution started, Acadia immediately helped the rest of Antarctica, sending soldiers and supplies. After one year of fighting, Acadia, along with the USA and Freezeland, had gained independence.

Trivia

 * It is somewhat a parody of Acadia
 * However, its geographic features are based on that of Singapore's.

Prologue
As I, Brant11, review my family's history, I also discovered my wife's. During my time in Freezeland, I was able to learn about my wife's family, who were High Penguins of Francterran ancestry.

= Kingdom of Annam =

Annam, officially the Kingdom of Annam, but also referred to as the Annamese Empire, is a constitutional monarchy located in the Asiapelago, between the Finipines and Duck Island. The capital is Phu Xuan, while the largest city is Prey Nokor, with a population of about 4 million as of 2019, or about 1/10 of the country's population. The country consists of 58 provinces, along with four other autonomous regions, Ayutthaya, Funan, and Lan Sang, which is located on the same island, Hindozhou, and Dragonstone, which is located on a different island. Annam also shares a border with the Puffish territory of Langkasuka in the southwest.

The first Annamese state formed in the Do River delta around 200 BC, through a unification of other tribes and smaller states in the region. It eventually fell under the control of Zhou around 100 BC, and eventually gained independence around 1000. Annam came under the control of Zhou a few more times in its history, but gained their independence again afterwards. As the Ninja Archipelago countries began to explore and colonize other parts of Antarctica, Annam began to open up trade with the Ninja Archipelago. After a short war with Francterre in the 1850s which Annam lost, the country began to industrialize, becoming a major power in the region.
