An island country, island state or an island nation is a country whose primary territory consists of one or more islands or parts of islands. As of current, only two internationally recognized countries are island countries, Rakeo and Reykanes.

War

Reykanes

Historically most wars were naval invasions or raids of other coasts, but there has been internal conflict on the island itself. It was effected by colonialism. Some regions were colonised by foreign mainland country as the location of Reykanes is important in controlling the region, being a halfway point between continents.

Rakeo

Post independence, Rakeo has had numerous internal armed conflicts. Experience with external conflicts, such as the decisive defeat of Rakeo in the Surian Fishing War, has led the country to avoid engaging in warfare.

Natural resources

Rakeo

Rakeo has little to no hydrocarbon resources, but forests and a plethora of mineral deposits have fueled extractive industries over the past hundred years.
