History
Early History
The first sign of civilization is the colonization of San Pedro (then called Pedriona) by the Roman Empire in 123 BC. After the collapse of the Roman Empire, it was conquered by Moors from Al Andalus.
After the reconquest of Spain, armies from Seville removed the Moors from San Pedro and claimed the island for Spain. After a couple of years a revolutionary group fought against the Spanish rulers and the island went to war with Spain. Portugal intervened, believing the war to be against them, and the island won. The royal family of San Pedro was then instituted and has been around ever since.
Pedrian Empire
In 1445, Ignacio Jimenez sailed with a fleet of ships towards a the New World. They intended to sail to Hispanola, but wound up at current-day Mesias. Since the land had not been claimed by the Spanish Empire yet, they claimed the area for San Pedro. The first Pedrian conquistadors were brutal and destroyed several ancient villages. Villagers were sold into slavery and women were raped, and those who didn't follow orders were killed. After intervention of abhorred Jesuit missionaries and friars, several conquistadors were exiled onto Spanish territory.
Culture
San Pedro, being located in Southern Europe, has a culture similar to Spain but more closely related to Portugal, even though Spanish is the official language.
