First establishments
The first known establishment in Anserisa is at the present-day location of Céruléa (founded as Calidi) on Haliétusa Island, around 814 and is considered to be the start of human occupation on the islands. Other settlements followed on the island, Préceptuma (823) (founded as Preceptum), Statéra (917) (founded as Statum) and Concordia (1001). Human occupation started secondly on Rubecula Island with the establishment of settlements at Conventa (828) (founded as Conventum), Regina (851) (founded as Meridianam), Vexilla (912) (founded as Vexillum) and Vergobreta (1031) (founded as Borea). Branta Island was the last settled island with settlements established at present-day Geneva (910) (founded as Oppidum Portum), Viatorisa (941) (founded as Petram) and Principia (999) (founded as Pulchra Cape).
Merchant cities
From 1000 to 1200, some cities evolved and became strong merchant cities, cities like Céruléa and Vergobreta, during that same period, settlement at present-day Brantavilla (1059) (founded as Commissuram) started and the city developed fast and soon became the biggest city of the Anserisan Islands.
It is during that period that the clans and families ruling the settlements began to fight and unite the different cities. The Brantum family was the most powerful of Branta Island, controlling all the southern coast by 1187 and was able to take over Brantavilla in 1201 and established the County of Castorida. They founded the town of Alisa (1203) (founded as Castoridum) and named the city where they established their rule, Brantasticus.
