Seváronsa was visited by traders of various nationalities early in the Age of Exploration, though [[Bergendii]] and [[Kiravians]] were the most frequent callers. The [[Bergendii]] navigator Jean-Zechariah Gullouing deLoreanne purchased the area enclosing a commodious natural harbour on Great Seváronsa from the native chief Bumi the Duped in exchange for an assortment of Levantine manufactures, including 11 leather boots (5 pairs and 1 lone right boot), four {{wp|Ear pick|ear spoons}}, and two hats. There deLoreanne established a trading post and way station which he dubbed Havre de Grace. Burgundie achieved suzerainty over Great Seváronsa in [[1654]], which was later extended to the other two islands, which were collectively absorbed into the [[Burgoignesc Thalattocracy]] in [[1876]].

Seváronsa was attacked by Kiravian naval forces and privateers several times during the [[Kiro-Burgoignesc Wars]], but was never captured or occupied. It was, however, offered as a bargaining chip during peace negotiations to end [[War of St. Brendan's Strait]] and ceded to Kiravian control under the terms of the resulting Treaty of [[Kurst Capital Region|Kurst]].
