Fall of Boriopa
The fall of Boriopa, also known as the Easwegian tragedy, is a core part of the Easwegian mythos and describes the invasion and eventual subjugation of the Easwegian Commonwealth, officially the Grand Commonwealth of Lord Boreas (1478-1821). Easwegian eastern territories, the Kraichy, were subjugated in 1580 by the emerging Russia under Ivan the Terrible, and the seabound territories, Svalbard and Finnmark, were subjugated in 1821 by the United Kingdoms of Sweden and Norway under admiral and state minister Thomas Fasting.

The fall of Boriopa, roughly corresponding to the Barents Region of the arctic; primarily comprised of Ezaari, Norwegian and Pomors Easwegians; is said to have led to the complete expulsion of Ezaari, the assimilation of Norwegians tradesman into the Kingdom, the loss of trade and persecution of the Pomors, and the decline and extinction of the Russenorsk pidgin language. The fall of Boriopa served as a motivator for the Easwegian national movement and creation of an independent Easway in 2017.
