History
Kirastor and Guahwan is regarded as the cradle of civilisation by many historians in Mactopia. Even as Mactopia's founder, Spoonmenistan and it's other member, Mattalatastan, were buiding their first cities, the natives of the Kirastorian Archipelago had developed a form of writing, had completed many grand works, and were well on their way to developing efficient weapons. The first person to unite the islands was the mighty Ganshwié of Jandril. He set the building blocks for the modern day country that can be seen today.
The Great Schism
In recent history, the Emirate of Kirastor and Guahwan left the region of Mactopia, which was under the oppressive reign of El Commandante of Spoonmenistan, and departed for the newly discovered land of Driftopia. This event is known as the Great Schism. With it's people travelled the citizens of many other Mactopian nationalities that wished to escape El Commandante's tyrannical reign - predominantly the Kabitans, Forkanians, Aelfastites and the New Romans. In Driftopia, they found a wide land that was largely untouched by humanity, and secure. The Kirastorians, beloved of the seas and mountains, set up their new nation on a mountainous archipelago in the north-east of the Driftopian sea, which is much like their former home in Mactopia. To ensure their continuing security, the outcasts set up 'The Mactopian Marches' in the North-West, where a coalition of Driftopian armies would patrol the borderlands between Mactopia and Driftopia.
