Overview

Bora-Bora

The Kingdom of Bora-Bora was first documented by explorer Jakob Roggeveen, in 1722. However, James Cook was the person who first made contant with the Bora-Bora people, in 1769. This was when Puni was in power. Bora-Bora had a rivalry of two clans, Sons of Hiro and Vaiotaha (they were the maraes used by the two clans). Puni was part of the Sons of Hiro clan, and gained control of Bora-Bora, and was even able to conquer Tupai, Ra'iatea, Taha'a, Maupiti, Huahine, Motu One, Manua'e, and Maupihaa. This was Bora-Bora's greatest extent. With Puni's death, his nephew, Topa I, ruled, but the islands were ruled with very poor authority under her rule, so the islands slowly feel into disunity.

Puni

1769 was the first documented existence of Bora-Bora and Puni. This was also when Puni (Teihotu Matarua) was in power, although how long his reign was and his birthdate is unknown. Puni was the Ari'i Rahi of Bora-Bora, which is the "Great Chief" of the kingdom (Has the most power). He made an alliance with Taha'a to dominate Ra'iatea and Maupiti. Puni eventually had control of the atolls of Manua'e, Motu One, Maupihaa, and Tupai. In 1773, when Cook landed there for the second time, he reported that Puni had control of the atoll at Huahine. Puni died on May 8th, 1791, on the island of Maupiti. He gave control to his nephew, Topoa I.

Dawn of Man

"Purifying glory to you, Ari'i Rahi Puni of the Kingdom of Bora-Bora! You conquered the Society Islands, and secured peace inside your control. You came into contact with the Europeans, and introduced them your strong empire. You united the broken clans and people of the islands, and got them to work with one another. You and your people were able to live peacefully, after the long years of war which pushed your people ever closer. You became a legend on the island of Bora-Bora.

Art by Arilasqueto
