Veraise was inhabited by the Cartesian people and their ancestors for several millennia before the arrival of [[Levantia|Levantines]]. During the [[Timeline_of_major_world_events#17th_century|Age of Exploration]], Veraise was settled by the [[Burgoignesc_North_Levantine_Trading_Company#Colonial_ventures|Martillien North Levantine Trading Company (MNLC)]] under the navigator Jean-Claude Gastineau, establishing a trading post and way station that he dubbed Port-Verde (present-day Gastineau) in [[1593]]. | |||

It was, however, eventually sold ceded to [[Ehemo]]an control in [[1812]], as the costs in holding the territory began to outweigh its benefits. | During the [[Kiro-Burgoignesc Wars]], Veraise was attacked by the [[Ehemo]]ans, who were friendly to the [[Kiravia]]ns at the time, but was never captured or occupied.
