Makaoui (Arabic: مكي), officially the Emirate of Makaoui, is an emirate of the United Federal Kingdom of St Samuel, located on the west of the Pellina Island. It is bordered by the Emirate of Ibbyan, the Emirate of Shadiaq, the Emirate of Sherifidan, the Emirate of Soudi Amedia and the Emirate of Midistan. The capital city is Avastine.

The Emirate of Makaoui is famous for being the seat of power for the Pellinese Empire. The city of Nessa-Isetkis was the capital city of the Pellinese Empire for over 3000 years.

History

For ancient history see the Pellinese Empire.

Makaoui was an Emirate of The Pellinese Empire between 2000 BC to 1200 AD. It's borders have remained unchanged since 954 BC when the council of Elders of the Pellinese Empire divided the empire into 19 Emirate's ruled by local warlords. Makaoui was awarded to Harrashar K'Awar, a legendary Pellinese warrior. The city of Nessa-Isetkis was the capital of the Pellinese Empire until it's collapse.

Around 1205AD, Shah Muhamed of the Pellinese Empire called for an army to be raised and asked all the Emirates to send 10,000 men each to fight the Emirate of Samah Island, who had declared itself independant of the Pellinese Empire. The Makaon Emir at the time, Youssef Falladiaki, refused to support the Shah and as a result was executed by Shah Muhamed's henchmen. Shah Muhamed called for all the Emir's who failed to provide soldiers to be arrested and executed, which in turn sparked the War of the Pellina Island Succession. The people of Makaoui revolted against Shah Muhamed, under Hisham Al-Hepptah and turned on the Shah's army.

The war lasted three months, only ending when Shah Muhamed and his family were killed by Emir Jamal Al Baqara of the Emirate of Salehstan supported by Hisham Al-Hepptah in Nessa-Isetkis.

On March the 18th 1206, the 19 Emir's of the former Pellinese Empire met at Intisar (Emirate of Makaoui) and the Treaty of Intisar was signed by all 19 Emir's granting independence to the Emirates.
