The islands that would become Sarolasta began to be populated by ancient Polynesians around 2400 BC. Racially and ethnolinguistically, the first wave of Polynesian settlers were of {{wp|Micronesians|Little Polynesian}} stock. They were later partially displaced by a second wave of {{wp|Polynesians|Greater Polynesian}} stock migrating out from what is now {{wp|Stenza}} around 1450 BC. Greater Polynesians would conquer and settle primarily in modern-day Svonga-Ngatra, Tarunua, and Leviti State, and explorers from Svonga-Ngatra would later sail south to colonise the remote [[Katorue]] archipelago. | |||

In 1584 AD, the Imperial Bank of Kintær's Austral Ocean Armada under the command of Levar Trimartolon anchored at Kapenga Island in modern-day [island group/state name TBD], lingering for several weeks to make repairs, replenish supplies, and sample the local flavours. Trimartolon claimed Kapenga for the [[Marble Emperor]] but did nothing to secure this claim before continuing on his journey. Over the next several decades, further Kiravian expeditions were dispatched to the archipelago. Samarius Tulorikvan led an expedition that visited Leviti and Tarunua in 1590. Kiravian colonisation of Sarolasta began in earnest in 1592 AD with the construction of a stockade by Ivo Siguatera on the site of modern-day Kanoka Point. | In 1584 AD, the Imperial Bank of Kintær's Austral Ocean Armada under the command of Levar Trimartolon anchored at Kapenga Island in modern-day [island group/state name TBD], lingering for several weeks to make repairs, replenish supplies, and sample the local flavours.
