Kiskeya is an island nation in the northern area of the Taino Sea. In the early years of colonialism, Kiskeya (along with many other Taino-inhabited and uninhabited areas) was declared a "no man's land" - that is, free from the threat of colonization. It was actively defended by the Catatanian navy, which would pound any non-native settlements it found on the shore. In 1673, however, it officially became a protectorate of Catatania, with Catatanians still barred from settling on the land. 300 years later, in 1973, Kiskeya was given full independence, but to this day is still defended by the Catatanian navy, much as it was nearly 500 years ago.
The Taino make up the vast majority of Kiskeyans. The culture of Kiskeya is similar to those of neighboring islands with majority-Taino populations, and especially those others that were Catatanian protectorates.
