- first people came from modern-day Kizenia who came across the Straits of Trigunia in the early in the AD 100s - the earliest areas settled was along the southeastern coast of Lesser Chadonya; - written & archaeological evidence seems to suggest that the first place settled was not Lesser Chadonia itself but instead was Great Bear Island - however, it seems that the first Kizenian settlers quickly moved to the area around modern-day Cheya in Kildan Olvar led by the folk-hero Milov - southern Lesser Chadonya was settled by Kizenians by the early AD 200s with Chadonya following by the 400s -
