During the [[Burgo-Audonian_Colonial_Wars#Kiro-Burgundian_Gin_&_Tonic_Race|Kiro-Burgundian Gin & Tonic Race]], Saint Kennera became home to large {{wp|cinchona}} plantations established for strategic reasons by the College of Trade in order to provide protective {{wp|quinine}} to Kiravian military and mercantile personnel in the tropics generally and [[Audonia]] in particular. These plantations, hoped to be safer from Burgundine sabotage than those in the [[Melian Isles]], would not, however, last very long at all, being ruinously burnt by Burgundian saboteurs in [YEAR]. Burgundine success in maintaining the Quinine Gap would pave the way for the waning of Kiravian colonial ambitions in Audonia, making way for unrivalled Burgondese dominance in that region. | |||
Pribraltar, with its ideal natural harbour, was desirable as a base to Odonerene merchants and explorers seeking the riches of Vallos. Vessels sailing for the Keregulan Merchants of the Tropics, the [[Imperial Cola|Imperial Cronan Plantation Company]], and the [[Bay Trading Company]] called there routinely ''en route'' to and fro' [[Eusa]] and [[South Crona]], and later [[Takatta Loa]] and the [[Krasoa Islands]]. | Pribraltar, with its ideal natural harbour, was desirable as a base to Odonerene merchants and explorers seeking the riches of Vallos.
