Irovasdra's first inhabitants were Dankememic-speaking Kirhavite Uroms related to the Tapkek tribes of [[Kiygrava]] and [[Niyaska]]. However, during the Xth century, these aboriginals were partially displaced by Gaelic migrants, which established numerous independent chiefdoms in the region. Low population densities among both groups allowed for a reasonable degree of peaceful coëxistence and occasional coöperation against the Normand brigands that frequently raided the coast until the arrival of Coscivians in 1318 ''anno Domini''.

Over the next several weeks, the asylum dispute became a rallying point for Pan-Celtic and anti-federal sympathisers across the Federacy. Mac Tòisich, an outspoken proponent of both, continued to rebuke Federal requests (and later demands) that he render Eriugena to Federal custody, and assigned Eriugena a protective detail of Irovasdra State Troopers. Meanwhile, Eriugena was relocated to Fèlecorner, where he moved about freely and was given a hero's welcome by the local population. The Candrin administration, hoping to settle the matter without coërcion, filed suit against Irovasdra and mac Tòisich in the Kiravian High Court, but mac Tòisich, invoking "sovereign immunity" (which does not exist for state governments or officials in the federal court system) announced that neither he nor a representative of the government would appear. Faced with the politically disastrous prospect of having Federal Marshals bring a sitting Governor before the High Court by force (potentially also involving combat with Irovasdran police or militia), Candrin authorised the Migration Enforcement Agency to surveil Eriugena and his detail with the goal of apprehending the fugitive by force.

Eriugena was ultimately captured on 8 Trælús inside a Fèlecorner pub while he and his guards were heavily inebriated, and was taken to a federal prison in Kiygrava to await extradition. However, the political fallout from the incident continued to plague the Candrin administration for many years, and energised the antifederalist camp in its support of mac Tòisich for the 21209 Prime Executive election.
