Question

Where did you get your nations name and what inspired the backstory of your nation?

Caramuru was the Indian name of a Portuguese colonist of the XVI century who got shipwrecked in 1509. Brazil had recently become a Portuguese dominion (1500). Much of the territory was uncharted.
He lived among the Tupinambá tribe. He married there and had descent. He was respected by the Native population and European colonists alike, making first contact easier and as peaceful as possible.
