The Archducal government encouraged immigration; mainly from Kiravia but also from the Istroyan lands and elsewhere to help increase agricultural productivity and develop the realm's economy. Many foreign and immigrant scholars, advisors, and administrators were employed by the archducal court and government bureaucracy. | The Archducal government encouraged immigration; mainly from Kiravia but also from the Istroyan lands and elsewhere to help increase agricultural productivity and develop the realm's economy.

Of the immigrant peasantry, most Istroyan homesteaders hailed from Xelphia, the [[Melian Isles]], and the islands of what is now North Solis. Most Coscivian immigrants had roots in [[South Kirav]] or [[Great_Kirav#Baylands|the Baylands]], where population pressure was strong and land prohibitively expensive. These were the same regions from whence a plurality of the Elamite crusaders had come, so ancestral and cultural-linguistic ties helped facilitate the immigration and absorption of southern and southeastern Kiravians. A small but notable contingent of settlers came from [[Fiannria]], including Fiannrian {{wp|Albanian people|Illyrians}}. | |||
