===Antiquity and the first Emeritan state===
It is generally accepted that Lucrecia was settled by the broader [[Glaistic civilization]] during the prehistoric period, but when they arrived and the extent of their settlement is the source of considerable debate. The only record of them comes from the first [[Adonerii]] settlers on the archipelago, who arrived in 750 BC. Until the 21st century, it was generally accepted that Lucrecia was the southernmost Adonerii settlement during the [[Latin Heroic Age]], though some modern archaeology and scholarship has suggested Lucrecia served as a staging ground for further expeditions south into modern [[Chrobonsk]]. Whatever the case, the Latin city of ''Emerita Maris'' was established at their first arrival and became the predominant cultural and political force in the archipelago. Historians generally agree ''Emerita Maris'' served as the primary southern outpost of the intricate Adonerii trade network, filtering exotic goods from South Sarpedon back to the other Adonerii cities in exchange for weapons, food, and other goods more common in [[Urlazio]] and beyond.

With the collapse of the Adonerii league, ''Emerita Maris'' became an independent power in the south Kindreds Sea. It began to establish its own colonies and trade network throughout eastern [[Vallos]].
With the collapse of the Adonerii league, ''Emerita Maris'' became an independent power in the southern part of the Kindreds Sea. It began to establish its own colonies and trade network throughout eastern [[Vallos]]. It soon expanded to rule over other settlements on its home island, eventually culminating in the establishment of the Emeritan Republic in 178 BC, with a form of government that closely followed that of the Caphiric Republic, that being a diarchical consular republic. Its first consuls were [[Sextus Luria Rufus]] and [[Marcus Cornelius Scaevola]], two prominent merchants who have greatly expanded the trading networks between the Emeritans and the other polities in Vallos.
