Central Vallos remained largely unaffected by the rise of the piratocracies. Southern Vallos was slightly affected, as the Polynesian states there also managed to engage in piracy, though significantly less than in the north. Southern Vallos experienced state consolidation during the period 1350-1700, coalescing into just five kingdoms.

Following the [[Great Confessional War]] ([[1555]] - [[1575]]) in southern [[Levantia]], a massive population diaspora occurred. Tens of thousands of Protestant [[Levantia|Levantines]] took to the seas to find new homes free from [[Catholic Church|Catholic]] persecution. Many of these refugees were organized under trade companies formed in various principalities the form modern-day [[Burgundie]]. But not every trading company was built on the concept of bleeding the fleeing Protestants dry. The [[Burgoignesc North Levantine Trading Company#Colonial%20ventures|Martillien North Levantine Trading Company (MNLC)]] was chartered in [[1579]], under the newly ordained [[Catholic Church|Catholic]] [[History of Burgundie#Duchy%20of%20Martilles|Duchy of Martilles]] "to control the trading interests of Martillien merchants from "the borders north of the upper reaches of the [[Kingdom of Dericania]] unto the lands at the zenith of the His terrestrial orb (read Kiravia)". Conspicuously absent were longitudinal limits on the charter.

Following reports of successful settlements in [[Alstin#Occidental%20Settlement%20and%20the%20Founding%20of%20the%20Kingdom|Altaic Sea basin]] the [[Burgoignesc North Levantine Trading Company#Colonial%20ventures|Martillien North Levantine Trading Company (MNLC)]] dispatched Jean-Claude Gastineau and a small fleet to establish a [[Catholic Church|Catholic]] trading post in the area. Arriving in the [[Alstin]]ian Isles in late [[1591]], they wintered in the wilderness far from the predominantly Protestant settlements. Cold, disease, and Protestant raids reduced the part from 153 men and 14 ships to 73 men and 6 ships. In the early spring, they made out for mainland [[Crona]] to find a suitable and secluded spot to establish a Catholic factory. After 4 months of surveying the coast, a number of suitable locations were noted. Gastineau returned to the [[History of Burgundie#Duchy%20of%20Martilles|Duke of the Martilles]] and the investors of the [[Burgoignesc North Levantine Trading Company#Colonial%20ventures|Martillien North Levantine Trading Company (MNLC)]] and presented them with his findings. The Archbishop of [[History of Burgundie#Duchy%20of%20Martilles|Martilles]] was more interested in the Protestant settlements in the Alstinian Isles and the decision of where to settle a trading post was shelved while Gastineau and his lieutenants drafted a report on military strength, fortifications, indigenous conversion efforts, and infrastructure developments. He became very frustrated with the delay and appealed to leave some lieutenants behind to finalize the report after he had departed to start the return journey. He was denied during each appeal. Ultimately, the report was completed after 6 months of writing and redrafting. After the Archbishop accepted the report, the Duke and the investors met again to pick a settlement spot. They made their selection and outfitted Gastineau with a contingent of 183 men (outfitted with the finest military materiel available in the [[History of Burgundie#Duchy%20of%20Martilles|Duchy]]), 16 ships, animals, and 5 priests. They arrived in the fall of [[1593]], establishing the factory of Port-Verde (present-day Gastineau).
