History
Early modern period
Valle Crucis was a regular stopover for ships sailing between Kelonna and eastern Teudallum or Hesperidesia, but it was too distant from the other major trade routes to prosper overmuch from its poor placement. In the mid-1500s, however, Valle Crucis assumed a central position in the southern Astyrian tuna trade, leading to a meteoric rise in its importance as a port. The War of the Seventy-Three Tunas, a disturbance that occurred in 1554, saw merchants from Kur'zhet and Exponent in armed conflict within the city-state. The state developed strict residency laws during this century to protect its native traders and their livelihoods.
