Lindonarlin conquered the island group from 1530 to 1558.  It remained a Lindonari colony until 1970, when it was given to Westar.  After 30 years, it returned to the Realm's dominion, but with increased autonomy for internal affairs.  Independence was achieved in 2090 and five years later, the islands of Tyranos and Afos were annexed to the country.  Since then, Medosta has struggled to leave its policy of isolation and look to develop its potential as a transport center and touristic destination.
