Campaigns for a potential Oceania expansion

It could be single civ dlc like AoE 3 that comes with Polynesians or a dlc that comes with Polynesians (with a Momo campaign in the 13th century) and Visayans (with a Lapulapu campaign between 1518 and 1521 ending in the battle of Mactan against Magellan)

  1. ʻAhoʻeitu – divine father, around 900 AD, resided first in Popua and then other places of the Hahake district, like Toloa near Fuaʻamotu.
  2. Lolofakangalo
  3. Fangaʻoneʻone
  4. Līhau
  5. Kofutu
  6. Kaloa
  7. Maʻuhau – residence in Lavengatonga
  8. ʻApuanea
  9. ʻAfulunga
  10. Momo – married with Nua, the daughter of Loʻau, the Tuʻi Haʻamea. The Tongan maritime empire came into existence. Royal court in Heketā near Niutōua.
  11. Tuʻitātui – around 1100 AD, extended the royal court, built the Haʻamonga; re-established the Fale Fā (house of four), royal counselors and guardians; his cunning stepbrother Fasiʻapule became a governor.
  12. Talatama – shifted the residence to Lapaha; died without issue
  13. Tuʻitonganui ko e Tamatou – said to have been a block of wood, standing in as child of Talatama and father of Talaihaʻapepe to keep the dynasty pure
  14. Talaihaʻapepe – real brother of Talatama and supposed grandson through the woodblock
  15. Talakaifaiki – around 1250; start of the decline of the Tongan maritime empire, lost Samoa due to his cruelty to the Mālietoa line
  16. ################### 17. Tuʻitonga Maʻakitoe
  17. Tuʻitonga Puipui
  18. Havea I – assassinated by a Fijian
  19. Tatafuʻeikimeimuʻa
  20. Lomiʻaetupuʻa
  21. Havea II – assassinated with an arrow by Tuluvota, a Fijian
  22. Takalaua – assassinated by Tamasia and Malofafa from ʻUvea and Futuna while taking his bath in the Tolopona stream at Alakifonua; a harsh ruler, start of political upheavals
  23. Kauʻulufonua I – around 1470, pursued his father’s murderers from Tongatapu to ʻEua, Haʻapai, Vavaʻu, both Niuas, then Niue, Fiji, Samoa, finally arresting them at their home island of either ʻUvea or Futuna. Back at home in Muʻa he killed them in a savage spectacle (knocking out their teeth and then letting them chew kava), before he devoured them giving him the nickname fekai. He allowed his younger brother Moʻungāmotuʻ to found a new dynasty, the Tuʻi Haʻatakalaua, named after their father. This new dynasty would carry out the day-to-day duties of the Tuʻi Tonga with the people while the Tuʻi Tonga became sacred, king of kings like a god.
  24. ######## – kept away from Tonga by the Tuʻi Haʻatakalaua, lived in Samoa.
  25. Puipuifatu – lived in Samoa, tried in vain to invade Vavaʻu to restore power to his dynasty
  26. Kauʻulufonua II – lived in Samoa
  27. Tapuʻosi – was allowed to return to Muʻa, as apparently the Tuʻi Tonga line was now so weakened as to be of no threat to the Tuʻi Haʻatakalaua. From now on the Tuʻi Tonga functioned as a kind of high priest, taking care of all religious obligations (an honour and a burden), giving him a very elevated status, but no worldly power. But no Tuʻi Tonga was ever murdered anymore either.
  28. ʻUluakimata I – also known as Teleʻa, builder of the greatest langi on Tongatapu
  29. Fatafehi – around 1600, married the Tuʻi Haʻatakalaua Moʻunga ʻo Tonga’s daughter, a custom which would last for some generations to come forming a permanent alliance between the two houses; his sister married a Fijian, changing the international orientation of Tonga from Samoa to Fiji. Was tattooed in Samoa by master tattooists in two sessions and received the nickname ############## (“Twice to Manuʻa”) in commemoration of these rituals.
  30. Kauʻulufonua III – was met by Abel Tasman in 1643

Eh, not a fan of that. There should be at least one more Oceania civ to round out the architecture set.

I do actually have the Filipinos as a civ in the expansion. I had never heard of this guy before, but he sounds interesting.

Lapulapu fought against Magellan and is the first Filipino national hero…

I wonder if there could be a campaign for Isokelekel for the Micronesians. Supposedly, he invaded Nan Madol and toppled the Saudeleur Dynasty sometime between the early 16th or early 17th centuries. If the former date is correct, then it’s within the AoE2 timeline, but if the latter is correct, it’s too late, as the accepted end year of the AoE2 timeline is 1598.

Around 1628, when Isokelekel overthrew the Saudeleurs and began the Nahnmwarki Era, the Nahnmwarkis lived at Nan Madol, but had to gather their own water and grow their own food. This is thought[who?] to have caused them eventually to abandon Nan Madol and move back to their own districts, although there are other explanations for the desertion of the complex, such as a sharp population decline.

1628 is the archaeological date, but according to the legend itself, the whole thing occurred in the 1500s.

I think if the campaign is framed like the original legend, I can get away with it.
