The Kingdom of Takasia is a small nation in the Arctic region of Taijitu. It is situated on a peninsula called "the Horn of O", the north-westernmost corner of the continent O.
The peninsula was sparely populated by feudal lords active in the region before the Union of Takasia was founded. Immigrants started flocking in, starting in the 1990's, and is currently the vast majority of Takasia. It did not only make Takasia one of the most cosmopolitan nation in Taijitu, but also a bustling trading post in the area.
On 13th April 2007, The Union of Takasia became the Kingdom of Takasia, with King Takas I (Vladimir Pabosky) as the monarch.
With the Arveo Development Act in effect from May 2007, Arveoli has become part of the kingdom.

History
As in the area in Northwestern O, the "Horn of O", where Takasia is located, were all feudal lords. One of them being the Pabosky's, which roughly own the current land of Takasia. There were no organized government as of now, as the land was not particularly welcoming.
When Talstadt was founded, the Pabosky's did not join the union. The union of Takasia was formed, promoting free trade. At that time, there were only two government functions: security and trade facilitation. Following this came the influx of immigrants who came to the abandoned land for fortunes in the early 1990's.
On 13th April 2007, Vladimir Pabosky declared the founding of the Kingdom of Takasia. The monachy vowed to continue to maintain the free trade environment and peace of the area.
