''' | '''Arsesia''' or in North Cronan "'''Tanlé'''," is a small semi-landlocked archipelago in the [[Albion Sea]] ([[Odoneru Ocean|Northern Odoneru Ocean]]). The territory is a province or federal subdivision of the [[Arcerion|Confederated Provinces of Arcerion]], and is formed of three principal islands, those being Elizabeth Island, Gibson Island, and New Moorden. The three islands sit at the absolute northernmost habitable territory occupied by any [[Occidental world|Occidental]] nation, and is the most economically developed territory in [[Crona|North Crona]]. Considered an Arcer overseas territory, the Governorate have internal self-governance, even though it remains part of Arcerion's sovereign territory and has a population that is over 75% Arcer. The territory also has the oldest continuously operating northernmost deepwater port in Crona. | ||
Some speculation over actual Arcer claim to the islands, as they were uninhabited frozen Arctic tundra and sub-Arctic landmass that had previously remained undiscovered. After [[Arco Polar Expeditions|Arcer colonization]] during the late 1800s and early 1900s, the population and development of the islands grew rapidly with early growth industries such as whaling and a limited mining economy. It also served as one of the few modern ports and dock facilities in Northern Crona due to the lack of developed Indigenous maritime commerce during the early 20th century. It has also been a traditional seat for Occidental military power, as the [[Armed Forces of Arcerion]], specifically the [[Royal Arcerion Naval Service]], maintains a significant posture at [[Port Northford]] to defend natural resource rights. | Some speculation over actual Arcer claim to the islands, as they were uninhabited frozen Arctic tundra and sub-Arctic landmass that had previously remained undiscovered.
