The Dominion of Western Erebonia was a Lucis dominion from 1858 to 1920. The dominion, situated in Western Zemuria, comprised the Tyhhrenian Plateau, the Lamarre Province, a portion of the Sutherland Province, to the Aragon Mountain Range. Western Erebonia had a self-governing status within the Lucis Empire and was very similar to the Dominion of Rubrum's status.
Following the Lucis-Erebonian Wars of 1850-1858, the territory was troubled with various protests, with many fearing the suppression of liberties granted by the Erebonian Empire. However, the Western Erebonian Constitution of 1859 later granted rights that a Lucian would have to Erebonians. In the 1860s, Western Erebonia flourished and was characterized by its Lucian way of life, including bicameral parliament and separate civil and criminal law. The territory was opened to Lucian shipping and migration. It allowed Lucian investments and settlements to create various opportunities for Erebonians. The territory was also opened to migrants from North Amerigonna provinces, with majority originating from Rubrum. The various migrations from North Amerigonna climaxed in 1862, with the Erebonian Empire opening its borders to Lucian investments following the official establishment of the Lucis-Erebonia Relations.
The establishment of diplomatic ties also allowed the flourishing of the English language to Zemuria and by the 1870s, Western Erebonia became the leading English-speaking country in Zemuria, with English slowly making its way to the Erebonian Empire and to the Lucian colony of Alteria. By the 1890s, English was becoming the dominant language in both Western Erebonia and on the Erebonian Empire.
Much like the rest of Erebonia, Western Erebonia was also subjected to various skirmishes against the Autocratic East Europan Imperial Alliance, which prompted Great Lucis to side with Erebonia during the Erebonian-Imperial War of 1870. In addition, the Western Erebonian Army also fought alongside the Imperial Army of Erebonia during the Erebonian-Calvardian Wars of 1845-1870 again in 1883-1901. In the defence of its colonies, the Lucis Empire was dragged into the wars. This led to the creation of the Lucis-Erebonian Defence Treaty of 1905, which led to the two nations supporting each other in the event of an attack, as well as the trading of military technology.
The Gallian-Imperial Crisis of 1910 saw the Lucian government pulling out its divisions from the continent and replacing them with regiments and divisions from Rubrum. In what would later be known as the Rubrumian Expeditionary Army in Erebonia, various military commanders supported the idea of amalgamating Western Erebonian divisions with Rubrumian divisions. This later gave birth to the famous Erebonian and Rubrumian Army Corps.
During the First Europan War, Western Erebonia was subjected to various Imperial attacks on its southern coasts. It also fought alongside with the Erebonian Army against the invading Imperials from the south. Following the war, the Lucian government saw the need for the Erebonian Empire to leap as a major power to counter the balance in the region. In 1920, the Western Erebonian Treaty was signed, which had the Lucis Empire relinquished its control from Western Erebonia and as well as granting independence to Alteria. Western Erebonia would be reunited with the rest of the Erebonian Empire but the autonomous status of the Provinces of Iceland and Lemarre remained in place as very little changed following the Erebonian Parliament's control on the region.
Following Western Erebonia's return, the Erebonian Empire later grew to be one of the major powers in Zemuria and the leading Allied nation in the region. It also granted Erebonia's qualification of membership in what would later be known as the Lucis Commonwealth of Nations in 1975.
