In [[1584]], [[Kiravia]] established a small colonial settlement in eastern [[Crona]], one of its first. The settlement, called "Dáltaskáma" in Coscivian and "Farpoint" in Ænglish, was a [[Pharisedom]] primarily made up of [[Ænglish people]] fleeing [[Levantia]] after the [[Great Confessional War]]. Although it was largely intended as a small trading post, the discovery by colonial authorities of {{wp|kola nuts}} in the region of Farpoint in the early 1590s changed views and attitudes with respect to the colony, and by 1595 the first early large kola nut plantations were established in the colony.
In [[1584]], [[Kiravia]] established a small colonial settlement in eastern [[Crona]], one of its first. The settlement, called "Dáltaskáma" in Coscivian and "Farpoint" in Ænglish, was a [[Pharisedom]] primarily made up of [[Ænglish people]] fleeing [[Levantia]] after the [[Great Confessional War]]. The colony was established by the [[Imperial_Cola#Foundation_and_expansion|Imperial Cronan Plantation Company]] (modern [[Imperial Cola]]) for the cultivation and exploitation of the {{wp|kola nut}}, with the Ænglish settlers largely being used as agricultural manpower in an {{wp|indentured servitude}} arrangement, though some Cronan indigenous day laborers were also used dating back to the colony's establishment. The Company owned and governed the colony until 1621, after which time it was sold to the government of [[Kiravia]], though the Company remained in the colony and was an inexorable part of its culture and society going forward.
