King Jois Island

King Jois Island (abbreviated KJI) (: Ricjoisinez, : Joislen, Kipau: TBD) is an island located in Coranelle, administered within the Province of Kipauland. It covers an area of 648.93 square kilometers (250.55 square miles), and is 38.29 kilometers (23.79 miles) separated from Kipauland proper. It currently has a population of 21,904 permanent residents, though estimates suggest that as much as an additional 7,500 seasonal workers make home on the island during the peak of fishing and tourist season in Kipauland. The vast majority of residents live in the island's principal municipality, Nybathierry, though the bulk of the island's landmass is occupied by three additional agglomerated rural municipalities: Curchlen, Arghandour, and Fendisride.

Prior to settlement by the Ordrish, the island had been uninhabited throughout much of modern history, though evidence suggests periodic habitation by seafaring Vatupayic peoples between 800-1200 CE. It was known to the Kipau people, though was not host to a permanent settlement until the establishment of Nybathierry in 1770 following its survey by Ordrish explorer Achuanis Marpen. The majority of settlers to the island in its early history were part of the Lathadun diaspora, alongside Fendish persons escaping persecution in Ecoraland, though several villages were also established by the Ordrish-associated Kipau tribes which assisted Marpen's expeditions in the area, including the survey of the island.
