[edit] History
Shandora was built in 402 AOS by the Shandorians, the ancestors of the Shandians. During the Void Century, Shandora fell to the Alliance that would soon become the World Government. The Shandorians fought to protect their Poneglyph. After the Void Century, Shandora crumbled to ruins but the Shandians continued to guard the city. [1]
In 1122 AOS, Montblanc Norland visited the city. In 1127 AOS, Shandora along with the half of Jaya was shot up to Skypiea. Shandora was under Skypieans' control for the past 400 years while the Shandians fought to gain back the Upper Yard.
During Enel's reign, he enslaved Gan Fall's Sky Militia in order to have them mine all the gold out of Shandora. The gold was used as the part of the Maxim.
After the Upper Yard War, Shandora was back in the Shandian's hands, along with the Skypieans who lost their homes on Angel Island.
The Shandorian Golden Belfry Bell, Shandorian Poneglyph Chamber, and the Sacrificial Altar are three notable locations in Shandora.
