The Empire of Onyonia, more commonly known as Onyonia, was a micronation in Washington State, U.S.A. The Empire was divided into 5 main territories. The nation was ruled by the Emperor, with individual territories having their own leaders.

Etymology

The name Originated from the word onion, having come from an inside joke around the time that the Oniottoman Empire was founded. The name Onyonia is a more serious-sounding version of Oniottoman Empire, despite modern Onyonia having less relations to onions.

History

The first form of Onyonia originated in 2019, with the creation of the Oniottoman Empire.

The Oniottoman Empire was more simulationist, claiming discord servers, Minecraft worlds, and other virtual territories.

In 2022, the Oniottoman Empire was reformed, as the Empire of Onyonia, which was more secessionist, being a medium secessionist micronation, claiming it is an independent nation but admitting that independence is nearly impossible for a micronation.

Around May of 2023, Onyonia became defunct due to the Ruler losing interest in micronationalism.
