Istrenya was never under direct colonial rule from any Levantine or Sarpedonian nations, however mercantile influence had often relegated it to inconsistent economic growth and recurring bouts of recession and economic strife. Traditionally the maritime economy Istrenya enjoyed was primarily based on fishing, simple agriculture, and raw mineral and natural resource extraction, however with the expansion of modern Occidental corporations in the 19th and 20th centuries, these companies grew to inherit large amounts of influence over the Istrenyan government. Most prominent amongst these were corporations from Arcerion, located directly across from Istrenya across the [[Warrington Strait]] and [[Malentine Sea]]. Following the end of the [[Second Great War]] and the rise of decolonization amongst many smaller Indigenous nations and their colonies, Istrenya saw a rise of socialist and liberal movements aimed at toppling the existing Populist government under President A'kale Treo. | Istrenya was never under direct colonial rule from any Levantine or Sarpedonian nations, however mercantile influence had often relegated it to inconsistent economic growth and recurring bouts of recession and economic strife.

Increased activity amongst Indigenous peoples promoting Indigenous Nationalism had spread from Varshan into South Crona, with similar movements occurring in Porlos and Kelekona. During the Second Great War, Indigenous nations reinforced their neutral positions by refusing to allow many warships and airplanes from Arcerion and other Allied nations from using their facilities. It was assessed that communist and syndicalist sympathizers, foreign fighters, and ideological radicals from other Indigenous nations moved to Istrenya anticipating a much larger conflict, however the limited political success in the 1958 Istrenyan Elections meant that there was a limited perceived legitimate political base for liberal and socialist thought, and the majority of the dissidents were native Istrenyans. | Increased activity amongst Indigenous peoples promoting Indigenous Nationalism had spread from Varshan into [[South Crona]], with similar movements occurring in Porlos and Kelekona.
