The Saivarese Protectorate of West Rennekka was a colony established by the Saivarese joint stock company Rennekka Traders Ltd in Rennekka during the late 15th century. The small settlement ballooned into a large colony both through the arrival of settlers and the assimilation of the natives, which threatened the <NATIVE STATE>. In 1505, after some overtures from the <NATIVE STATE> the board of Rennekka Traders Ltd was forced to surrender their claim to the settlements to the Viscount of Saivara, who appointed a commission of Cordovite Monks to conduct negotiations and ultimately oversee the settlement until such a time as a governor could be appointed. The Cordovites, under the leadership of Brother Francesco Crispi, delivered a treaty under which all land already occupied by the settlers would be purchased by the Viscount and the Viscount would recognize the <NATIVE STATE>'s king as the ultimate lord of the land. The treaty allowed Christians to seek appeals under the Cordovites who would act as advisers to <NATIVE STATE> and allowed the settlement to charter a new trading company under the Saivarese crown. As a gift for ameliorating the situation, the <NATIVE STATE> gave Brother Francesco Crispi land on which to build a monastery, which was under the jurisdiction of the Bishop of Cadmaria.
