abstract
| - Bayau (Malagsay: Ivezo) or the Kingdom of Bayau (Malagasy: Fanjakan' Ivezo; Bayau: Fanyakaan i Bayau) is an island nation in East Africa. Its spans an archipelago of 4 main islands in the Indian Ocean, at approximately 500 km north of Mauritius and 1,100 kilometers east of the island of Madagascar. His capital, Ivuhi, is located in the center in the west of Nusebisa, and is the most populated city of Bayau with more than 2.7 million inhabitants. The Bayau archipelago has been settled by Austronesian seafarers, probably the same as the people that have colonized the island of Madagascar. These people, has been isolated from other influence until the 12th century when the Arabs landed in Nuse Lawa and introduced the use of the Arabic script called Surata, this script is known by very few people and has been replaced by the Malagasy Sorabe in the late 18th century. Bayau has the greatest Malagasy community living outside Madagascar (11.3 million). Most of these people immigrated to Bayau in the 17th century to work as slaves in sugarcane plantations led by French colonists. In 1793, a slave revolt led by Andrianiandevo got all the European settlers out of Nuse Lawa. Eight years later, the Kingdom of Bayau (in Malagasy: Fanjakan'i Vezo) has been proclaimed and Andrianiandevo had been designed as King.
