The island of Sudmoll was first visited and recorded by [[Occidental]]s when it was recounted by [[Pelaxia]]n or [[Cartadania]]n fishermen in the late 1480s. It remained obscure to them fro the next 100 yrs as it was beyond reasonable travel and the tribes were hostile to foreigners. | |||
During the [[Corumm]]ese subjection of [[Stenza]] in the 17th century, the island obstenibly fell under [[Corumm]]ese control, but it was not central to the colonization efforts of the [[South Seas Development Company]]. It was used as a stop over point by Gabo de Pogiano, during his exploration of the [[Pelaxian discovery of the sea route to Alshar]], also known as [[The Southern Route]], wherein it was charted for the first time on an [[Occidental]] map, in [[1613]]. | |||
The island fell once again into international obscurity until [[Burgoignesc]] ships of the [[Burgoignesc South Levantine Trading Company|Bourgondii Royal Trading Company]] fighting a [[Corumm]]ese fleet during the [[Alshari Quasi War]], in [[1701]], where chased all around the northern coast of [[Stenza]]. They took refuge on the island after the [[Corumm]]ese fleet gave up the chase. They navigated to the [[Carto-Pelaxian Commonwealth]] and resupplied, took on some settlers and laborers and returned 4 months later to establish a fort and dockyard. This complex was called ''Le Sud Moll'', the south dock, by the enterprising crew. | |||
