| - Founded in 34748-08 DT, Avana is the oldest settlement in Cresia. It was the first site where the Cresii settled after their migration to the Cresian System. After the expansion of the Republic of Cresia to other parts of the planet, Avana became its capital and largest city. The Treaty of Avana provided for provincial autonomy, establishing the Province of Avana with its current boundaries. After Cresian War II, the Republic of Cresia was reduced to what is now Avana, Nurtica, and Suntica. Avana remained the capital of the republic. However, the newly independent republics in the aftermath of Cresian War II referred to it as the Republic of Avana. Most Cresian historians consider this a misnomer. After the reunification, the two new cities of Rohenna and Gesenna became the capitals of the new Republic of Cresia. The two cities were built away from both Avana and Belsca to limit their influence in the new government. The old Republic of Cresia then merged with the Province of Avana, while relinquishing the administration of Nurtica and Suntica to the new Republic of Cresia.
