Seváronsa was first settled by the ancestors of the Barikol people, who migrated from the Cronan mainland sometime shortly before the Cronan Bronze Age. The Barikol people were tribally organised for most of their history. Their political development progressed such that territorial chiefdoms had begun to consolidate themselves in more densely populated areas of Great Seváronsa and Lesser Seváronsa  by the time of colonisation.

 

Seváronsa was visited by traders of various nationalities early in the Age of Exploration, though [[Bergendii]] and [[Kiravians]] were the most frequent callers. The [[Bergendii]] navigator Jean-Zechariah Gullouing deLoreanne purchased the area enclosing a commodious natural harbour on Great Seváronsa from the native chief Bumi the Duped in exchange for an assortment of Levantine manufactures, including 11 leather boots (5 pairs and 1 lone right boot), four {{wp|Ear pick|ear spoons}}, and two hats. There deLoreanne established a trading post and way station which he dubbed Havre de Grace. Burgundie achieved suzerainty over Great Seváronsa in [[1654]], which was later extended to the other two islands, which were collectively absorbed into the [[Burgoignesc Thalattocracy]] in [[1876]].

 

Seváronsa was attacked by Kiravian naval forces and privateers several times during the [[Kiro-Burgoignesc Wars]], but was never captured or occupied. It was, however, offered as a bargaining chip during peace negotiations to end [[War of St. Brendan's Strait]] and ceded to Kiravian control under the terms of the resulting Treaty of [[Kurst Capital Region|Kurst]].
