Herciana was the site of significant militarization during the [[Occidental Cold War]], with the construction of an expansive [[Royal Air Force (Urcea)|Royal Air Force]] base completed in 1951. The island was significantly invested in by the Urcean government until about 1970 as part of propaganda efforts to induce [[Veltorine diaspora]] to relocate to the island, efforts which were only partly successful and the project was later abandoned. Herciana saw significant out-migration with the establishment of [[Cetsencalia]] (now [[New Veltorina]]) in [[Crona]], with about twenty thousand Herci leaving the island for Crona since [[2016]]. | Herciana was the site of significant militarization during the [[Occidental Cold War]], with the construction of an expansive [[Royal Air Force (Urcea)|Royal Air Force]] base completed in 1951.
