===Post-Reunification===

It was after [[Kiravian Reunification]] in 1985 and implementation of the Restoration Constitution that the provinces of Sarolasta were organised into a [[Kiravian_federalism#Themes|theme]] and given the collective title of "Commonwealth" within the Kiravian Federacy. This allowed for Sarolasta to be treated as a special and distinct unit for the purpose of extension of federal policies such as {{wp|customs policy|customs}} and {{wp|migration policy|migration}}.

The 1990 AD eruption of Mount {{wp|Pelé}} in Central Province was a major disaster for the region, killing a confirmed 912 people and wreaking havoc on local agriculture, infrastructure, and ecology, destroying twelve villages and thousands of [[Federalist system of units#Area|kektares]] of farmland and biodiverse tropical highland forest. The eruption triggered the largest-ever mobilisation of the [[Kiravian_Security_Executive#Subordinate_Agencies|Kiravian Civil Defence]] agency to manage its aftermath, an effort complicated by the impact of {{wp|volcanic ash}} on aviation. Many Sarolastans living in the vicinity of Mount Pelé were critical of the federal response, putting forward demands for more funding to be devolved to provincial emergency management agencies. Nonetheless, despite governmental shortcomings, strong Kiravian media attention to the eruption and an [[the Deluge|outpouring]] of donations to the relief effort from Kiravians in other regions is believed to have strengthened Kiravian-Sarolastan solidarity.

Contemporary Sarolasta remains the poorest and least-developed of the Kiravian themes, though its growth indicators and standards of living have been steadily improving. It is considered a better investment area than [[Sydona]] (where economic growth is carried by the energy sector) and many inland provinces of Great Kirav. It struggles with high rates of emigration to more developed parts of the Federacy, resulting in {{wp|brain-drain}} that hinders its progress in entering more knowledge-intensive industries.

Greater {{wp|freedom of expression|freedom of public expression}} since Kiravian Reunification has opened discursive spaces to Polynesian Sarolastans challenging the prevailing capitalist order, the hegemony of ''kotakoskix'' identity, and the legitimacy of Kiravian sovereignty over the archipelago. All sectors of Sarolastan society have welcomed the cultural dimension of Polynesian Revival to one extent or another, though political manifestations of this movement are more controversial and divisive.
