History of Karata
Karata seperated from France in 1986 since they had different beliefs. Jeffrey Higgiman is said to be the founder of Karata, since he is the one who declared independence in the first place. France was not very excited about Higgiman's outburst, but they soon disagreed after the battle of Yolanda.

The Battle of Yolanda took place in Yolanda, Karata. Jimmy Koos, the commander of the French army, was making his way down to Toomu, Karata. However, the Karata Army, led by Higgiman, met Koos' army in Yolanda and a great battle was held! At least 1,300 of Koos' soldiers were killed, and 900 of Higgiman's soldiers were killed. Finally, Koos surrendered and agreed to give Karata it's independence.

As soon as Koos' gave Karata permission to be it's own country, the people had many disagreements of what to name it. Finally, Higgiman choose the name "Karata," which means "land of bananas" in Karnish. Higgiman even established the language of Karnish and forced everyone to learn to read, write, and speak Karnish fluently.
