May-Jun 1509 - The Ethmonsan (Zealandic) coast is completely claimed by the Kangaroon Empire. Emperor of Kangaroon, Homoland and Dodoa, and King of New Ethmonsa (Zealandia) Ethmon I the Great dies of pneumonia. He is succeeded by his son, Ethan II. His wife, Lang Gha Ming, granddaughter of Lukaga Ming, becomes Queen of Kangaroon.

Jul-Aug 1509 - Timor becomes a tributary of Kangaroon. Vietnam suffers from a succession war between Queen Lang Gha's two older brothers. The eldest, Lan Khan Ming, was trained by a priest and is a firm believer in the Mingistic belief system. This is a stark contrast to his brother, Lap Danh Ming, who is a military general. At first, a lot of public support is for Lan Khan, due to the prevalence of Mingistic belief in Vietnam. However, the south soon rallies with Lap Danh and pushes Lan Khan's weak armies back. At this point, a well-placed shot by an archer almost kills him, scaring Lan Khan and provoking him to change his name to Lankh Han Ming and integrate with the Mingistic Han Chinese to the north. However, Lap Danh is killed by one of his generals. This results in Lap Danh's entire faction falling into its own civil war. With no other successor to the throne, Queen Lang Gha Ming of the Kangaroon Empire is asked to assume the throne of Vietnam.

Sep-Oct 1509 - Kangaroon forces land in South Vietnam in September, while a large tributary force from Timor lands in the north and takes Hai Phong and consequentially Hanoi. She is coronated in the latter part of September, as her forces slam through the divided generals. By late October, most of the general surrender, and Vietnam is proclaimed a part of the Kangaroon Empire. Ethan II decides to divide Homoland into Vietnam and Antipodea.
