Some canon about the relationship between Ryu-Kyu and Minhay: | |||
Q: What's the situation of Minhay and the Ryu-Kyu Islands around 1900? I'm interested in that. | |||
A: I haven't gotten to that point yet :p | |||
I know that the naval blockade that the Kingdom of Koguryeo imposed on Yamato is going to affect, and perhaps prevent trade with Minhay during the 1900's, up until 2015 when Koguryeo finally annexed all of Kyushu and southern Honshu, and the Ainu taking over the rest of Honshu. Most likely Ryukyu will withdraw into isolation to avoid getting in the cross-fire between Yamato and Koguryeo. | |||
Q: Oh, interesting! But up until right before this turn of events they had contact, or? | |||
A: TBH Ryukyu wasn't on my radar, but that was because I hadn't made certain important developments with the Gull Speakers. But now that I'm starting to work on that, trade with the Minhast has to be done through the Gull Speakers only. The Salmon and Osprey Speakers are basically out of range, and the Stone Speakers and Horse Speakers can't float a boat (they're landlocked anyway). I'm kinda leaning towards the Gull Speakers being competitors as opposed to trading partners with Ryukyu, simply because they target the same markets and share the same trading partners. So there is contact, but whether it is competitive or cooperative (I don't intend for it to be military though - I want military conflict to be between the Stone Speakers and Gull Speakers), I haven't yet decided. | |||
