History

1859- The region of the North Pacific began growing with many new nations as world explorers began charting the waters. With the exploration began new influences. Christianity began flooding the region and many nations attempted to block this. Kouichi Konegara a young business man from (insert non-existent country here) and his young bride Eri Konegara met Baptist missionaries and converted. Their Government shortly issued a state wide ban on the religion and forbade the practice. Kouichi while still running his business began holding secret worship services at risk. Eventually he was given a 24 hour ultimatum, leave or die.

In 1860 with a group of fellow believers began crossing over seas then land to find a safe haven. Having to cross through both organized and unorganized territories they faced both hostility and hospitality. Eventually Kouichi and his flock settled in what is the present day capital of Eeri. Unfortunately Eri had died in child birth along with his infant son. He named the country in her honor but adding an extra E to commemorate his still born infant Eiji.

1865 In 1865 after three years of deliberation debate a constitution was drafted, outlying powers to the Government and it's people. Eeri officially declared its self a legal state to all the world, however the strict religious culture kept it isolated from the rest of the world. It did interact with a few of it's neighbors as needed and still made contributions onto the early international stage with charity and aid to ailing countries.
