Port de Vent is an trade island province of Burgundie in the Kindreds Sea's Catenias archipelago, consisting of five major islands: San Martinu, Ile Melite, Ile Osilie, and l'Iles Capræs.
History
The islands of the Catenias archipelago have long been a cultural cross roads.
Prehistory
Archeological evidence suggests that humans first settled permanently on the islands of modern Port de Vent and the Krasoa Islands around 4200 BCE. The Sundaic, Alitros sea people of the Glaistic civilization, established their first settlements along the coast, carving rudimentary dwellings into the cliffs. Their lives revolved around fishing, hunting, and navigating the treacherous currents of the archipelago's straits.
However, around 1100 BCE, Sundaic legends speak of encountering the Sky People, beings of immense stature who arrived in colossal vessels and possessed advanced knowledge, likely Adonerii. The Sundaic, initially wary, eventually formed a tentative connection. The Sky People shared some of their knowledge, influencing the island's intricate water channels and the unique architectural style of some Sundaic structures, incorporating the Latinic architecture into Glaistic megaliths. The islands that make up Port de Vent and the Krasoa Islands became the southwestern extent of the Adonerum and therefore remained a peripheral place meaning that no great effort was put into contralizing or enculutrating that Sundaics. Evidence suggests that Glaistic masks, with their enigmatic smiles and intricate details, may have been adopted into the Adonerii religious and social rituals, later evolving into symbols of power and leadership. Around 600 BCE, Adonerii legends speak of a devastating tsunami that impacted the Catenias archipelago. The Sundaic outposts across the region, including those on Port de Vent, were abandoned or destroyed. The Sundaics vanished from the historical record, but DNA evidence shows a pattern of intertribal breeding that pre-supposes that the Sundaics didn't disappear as much as they ceased to be unique and were more than likely just merged into the existing Adonerii identity. After the disaster, competition for limited resources, competition for fertile land, and fishing grounds grew between different Adonerii city-states, led to the rise of despotates vying for dominance. 600-200 BCE was marked by terrible inter-city violence, and slavery and piracy emerged as key aspects of southwestern Catenias Adonerii power structures and society.
Antiquity
The northern islands of Port de Vent were conquered and ruled by the Emerita Maris (modern-day Lucrecia), starting around 250 BCE, which served as a unifying factor for some of the southern Sundaic chieftains. They formed a kingdom with a loose kingship structure that was passed from chieftain to chieftain during key ceremonies of their lunar year.
