HMS Essi
One of the most important ships in Orangican history is the HMS Essi, which still exists and is located in the historic harbour of Eporia City. When it got into service in 1775 it was the flagship of Admiral de Bond and took part in several major events. Amongst these events were the three naval wars against king Nick's Nagai, which resulted into two victories for Orangica; the last one having crippled the Nagai fleet. Apart from these naval wars it was also notorious for having captured or sunk dozens of enemy ships as part of privateering under the Orangican flag. It was still being used as a war ship up till the late 1840s. After that it adopted the role as a harbour ship. The ship underwent extensive restoration in the second half of the 19th century and again in the 20th century. It has been a museum ship since 1920. The HMS Essi never formally left service, which makes it the oldest naval ship still in commission with 244 years of service in 2019.
