The West Yerduran Autonomous Division is one of the nine divisions of Sydona. It is unique among the divisions in having a higher degree of autonomy and devolved authority since 2003 AD. 82% of the population of the autonomous division are Thrakoslavs, making it by far the most ethnically homogeneous of Sydona's divisions and one of two with an absolute Thrakoslavic majority (the other being North Yerduran at 62%). The division is farily well-developed by Sydonan standards and boasts a significant textile industry.

Although a modern creation, there is some organic historical basis for the region's identity in the Republic of Battiacalo, a mediæval merchant republic that controlled much of the present autonomous division's territory as one of the Free Cities of Sydona.
