Upchuck Island
Upchuck Island is widely believed to be the greatest island in the Heyuri Archipelago. Formally founded on turn 23, Upchuck Island quickly rose to fame and power. Before taking a larger role in the archipelago, Upchuck Island was made up of a few unaffiliated villages. They were all brought together under a single rule by Gestalt Upchuck (born on turn -27,740), a dashing young man full of life and ambition. His favorite book is The Curse of the Cheese Pyramid by Geronimo Stilton.
Gestalt Upchuck's greatest enemy is Anonwaha, leader of Chuu Island. He vows to one day bring them and all of HAPI down.
Newchuck Island
After the sinking of Upchuck Island in the great war (see below), the king and the survivors fled and took refuge on PC98 Island. There they bided their time until a new, practically uninhabited island was discovered. The great king and his subjects sailed there and claimed it for themselves; they would start anew. Although it was decided to call the island Newchuck Island, the people still refer to themselves as Upchuckians.
Great Upchuckian War
Upchuck Island would meet its most pressing challenge in the form of the terrible HAPI alliance, made up of scoundrels and
lowlifes who wanted to prevent Upchuck from bombing random islands. It all started on turn 105 when Suiseiseki Island and
PC98 Island of the OTAKU alliance started bombing ANARRU SEKKUSU Island. In the ensuing chaos, attacks by OTAKU were made on Milf Island, heightening tension and resulting in the milfs joining the HAPI alliance. Seeing this, Suiseiseki Island very quickly surrendered like a complete coward. Meanwhile, George Upchuck had planned to use the chaos to cause some trouble of his own, by launching stealth missiles at Chuu Island. Unfortunately, Suiseiseki giving up like an idiot loser meant all HAPI's attention was turned to the origin of the stealth missiles; it was quickly discovered that Upchuck Island launched them. Oops.
Thus George Upchuck owned up to his actions and warned HAPI to back down; they did not. A great firefight ensued, one of such great magnitude that had never been seen in the archipelago before. First, DESU Island attacked, then five other members of HAPI soon began firing missiles in great quantities at Upchuck Island. HAPI's attacks were answered with Upchuckian missiles, which killed tens of thousands on Iopsd Island. Upchuck's defense facility prevented much damage and luckily missed being hit for a long time. However, eventually one of Gensokyo Island's pinpoint missiles would strike true, destroying the facility and leaving the island open to attack.
After that, it was all but over. The island itself could not withstand barrages from 6 islands (Secret Island joined in too because Upchuck randomly attacked them some time before). A secret Upchuckian operation to steal all of Shota Empire's funds and food proved to only prolong the island's demise. Eventually, Upchuck Island itself sunk beneath the waters of the ocean...
Culture
The Upchuckians are a proud and strong people. Many other peoples in the archipelago envy their prowess and good looks. A favorite pastime of the Upchuckians is a game called Chuckster. It involves two or more participants who arrange themselves in a line. They then compete to see who can upchuck the greatest distance.
Because of the Upchuckians willfullness and penchant for creating chaos, they are disliked by many islands. Upchuckians have a particular distaste for Iopsdians, because Lucky Star is awful. Guro fetishism is a capital offense on Upchuck Island. If anyone is found out to like that kind of thing, they are sentenced to death; usually by lynching, public stoning, or crucifixion.
Cuisine
Upchuckians are well-known in the archipelago for their strange yet scrumptious cuisine. Many of their dishes are made using grape jam and sclungus.
