Oimia (Oimic: Oimkædj [oimkɛd͡ʑ]), officially the The Commonwealth of Oimia, is a country located in Northern Miraria bordering Achiyitqana on the east.
Etymology
The term Oimia comes from the Oima river that flows right in the middle of the country.
History
Prehistorical times
Although much is not known about this historical age, what little is known comes from Vodholk mythology and archaeological evidence that suggests that vodholk population started migrating to modern day Oimia within the last twenty to forty thousand years, which coincides with the arrival of the first humans to the area. The first human inhabitants were presumably Maakpaueans, that would remain settled until this day on east Oimia.
The life of these first inhabitants was a nomadic lifestyle (which remains until this day), as a series of numerous spear heads found near Palgö and Yö, dating back to forty thousand years, suggest.
Evidence shows that Northern Mahavics arrived to southern Oimia during a series of migrations in the first millennium CE, pushing vodholk populations northwards.
Pre-modern times
The arrival of various people groups and a limited amount of natural resources lead inevitably to a series of wars between them.
The War for the Resources (16??-1878) was a series of wars and battles fought mainly between Mahavic and Vodholk populations to assert dominance over southern and central Oimia.
The first recorded war was in 1789 near the village of Omo, south of Yö, as vodholks were fighting over the control of the Oima river. The battle resulted on a Vodholk victory over an allied Mahavic-Maakpauean army.
