-'''Porfíria''' or '''Kiravian Cusinaut''' is an [[Overseas Regions|overseas region]] of the [[Kiravian Federacy]] located on the southern extreme of the [[Cusinaut]] subcontinent in northeastern [[Crona]]. The territory extends from the island of [[Rovaīon]] into the [[Archangel River|Archangel River Valley]], bordering [[New Harren]] to the east and including the Kiravian colonies of [[Avenirskara]] in the southwest and Térrurin to the northwest. Porfíria was first permanently settled by Kiravians in 1618 AD, when the fort and trading post of [[Cities of Kiravia#Vittēmur|Vittēmur]] was established at the mouth of the Archangel River. The colony subsequently attracted many thousands of Kiravian settlers who built a local economy based on exploitation of its abundant natural resources.
+'''Porfíria''' or '''Kiravian Cusinaut''' is an [[Overseas Regions|overseas region]] of the [[Kiravian Federacy]] located on the southern extreme of the [[Cusinaut]] subcontinent in northeastern [[Crona]]. The largest contiguous non-insular region of the Federacy, Porfíria comprises the provinces of [[Avenirskara]], the [[Green River Colony]], [[Northeast Territory]], the [[Porfíria (province)|Porfíria Colony]] ("Porfíria proper"), [[Rovaion]], [[Sakandaga]], [[Thendara]], and [[Tioga]]. Porfíria borders on [[New Harren]] to the east, Wallowaki to the west, and [[Netansett]] to the north. Its history as a Kiravian {{wp|settler colony}} begins in the 1650s, and was shaped by the development of regional and global trade networks and the unfolding of strategic competition between Kiravia, other colonial powers, and native polities. Today it is one of the better-developed territories of northern Crona, with a relatively high standard living, a product of the successful transplantation of {{wp|Why_Nations_Fail#Contrasting_two_types_of_institutions|resilient institutions}} from the mother country and rapid technological advancement under the [[Kiravian Remnant]].
