The Pomor's Isles

The Pomor's Isles (Easwegian: Pemaariou) (formerly known as Kong Karl's Land) is an archipelago and national park in Easway, Svalbard. It contains five main islands; Ksenyou, Starostinou, Dezhnevou, Marcsou, and Lomonosovou.

Incorporation into Easway
The Archipelago was acquisitioned into Easway on December 31st 2020 following a request from the Emizerri to the Council to discuss the matter of the nation known as the PDRV (People's Democratic Republic of Vyschiey), who claimed the Franz Josef Archipelago and was making threats of incursions into Svalbard & Easwegian territory, threatening the security of Hopen (Noodle Island).

Following this inquest, the Council decided that the best way to protect the Sovereignty of Easway was to expand out, to use the Archipelago as both a buffer for intelligence if any stray ships came into the Barents sea from the East, but also to be able to increase tourism and put Easway further on the map.

Name Changes
Because of Easway's Pomor's identity, Kong Karl's Land was renamed to the Pomor's Isles, and the Municipality of Hopen was renamed to the Pomor's Hopen Isles, before later being renamed to the Pomor's Strait Autonomous Municipality. Eventually after incorporation of Reike Eisoux (Ryke Yseøyane), and decisions made by the Imperial Council and confirmed in a public referendum, the Pomor's Isles was reclassified on November 30th 2021 from part of the Pomor's Strait Autonomous Municipality into the Pomor's Strait Island region, with the other islands within the former municipality forming the new Pomor's Municipality. 

On January 17th 2022 the Emizerri worked with the Minister of the Interior to approve of changing the names of the four remaining Islands of Csyeigo, Neicou, Eichornou, and Sammeou; which were named after the four original Marquis to original Pomors related names.

Csyeigou was renamed to Ksenyou after Ksenia Gemp; a comprehensive writer of the 20th century, who wrote the dictionary on the Pomors dialect as well as extensively about Pomors culture, opening up knowledge about the culture of the Pomors for many. Neicou was renamed to Marcsou, after Marfa Boretskaya, a Republican Mayoress who fought a resistance against the Muscovites who wished to annex Novgorod territory, and further consolidated the Northern culture, moving up North to be the progenitor of eventual Pomors settlements. Eichornou was renamed to Lomonosovou after Mikhai Lomonosov, an 18th century Pomors polymath, and Sammeou was renamed to Dezhnevou, after Semyon Dezhnev, a 17th century Pomors explorer who was the first recorded person to travel across the Bering Strait; which seperates Russian Eurasia from North America.
