Although inhabited since the Paleolithic Era, what is now Porlos was molded by [[Cartadania]]n colonisation. It began with, and was for centuries limited to, coastal settlements and trading posts established starting in the 16th century as the West Bay Colony. In the 19th century, Cognatian settlers slowly and hesitantly began to establish themselves in the interior. The Cartadanian colony that became Porlos did not have its present borders until the early 20th century because of resistance by native groups. | Although inhabited since the Paleolithic Era, what is now Porlos was molded by [[Cartadania]]n colonisation.
