The Copper Isles, also referred to as the Kyprin Isles and the Kyprish Isles, is a location in the Tortall setting of Tamora Pierce's novels. It is a country in the Emerald Ocean consisting of a cluster of eight individual islands south of the Yamani Islands. Its capital city is Rajmuat on the Kypriang Island. Prior to the laurin (or easterner) assault in the year 174 HE, the Isles were controlled by raka (native) queens and locked in a constant and bitter internal struggle that saw more exported than imported slaves, among other tragedies.
