Serria's domestic war-weariness had grown dramatically with the start of the conflict, leaving thousands dead and industry focusing on military production, limiting local prosperity for a conflict many saw as far away. Before news of the Battle of Peraganor and the victory had reached the Serrian capital, an uprising of local supporters of a republican-style government gained control over several city blocks in downtown Serria. When the news of the Treaty of Vellina had made the journey, the Army retook control with high morale, ending the republican movement in the eighteenth century.

Serrian colonialism in Icaria began in 1654, when Serria, desiring a trading city in the [[Mauralin Gulf]] region, invaded Free Cities of [[Paros]] and Aigaleo, which were major trade cities in the region. Despite having a relatively powerful navy for their size, they were no match for the Serrian navy and their more advanced firearms technologies, and would quickly fall in 1655. Shortly after conquering the Paros Archipelago, the Serrians would conquer the Kingdom of Agios in 1658, after a breakdown of relations between Agios and Serria.
The next phase of Serrian colonialism in Icaria began in 1747, with the Serrian conquest and vassalisation of the Kingdom of Aegina located on the northernmost tip of Icaria. Serrian colonisation in Icaria during this time period would follow a pattern of either accepting vassalisation and subservience to the Serrian monarchy, or being conquered and having the precolonial political systems erased, in favour of Serrian based institutions. The final precolonial holdout in North Icaria would be the Free City of Imeros, which would be conquered in 1763, Leaving the entire northern part of the peninsula under Serrian control.
In 1846, after a large movement for more local autonomy and greater representation that began in 1823, the colonies and vassals of Serrian Icaria were reorganised into a federation and principality. The capital of the new principality in northern Icaria would be the Serrian founded city of Evdilos, thanks to its central location and relative lack of power compared to other regions in the country. Agios and Paros were also given the option of joining but declined in favour of remaining a part of Serria proper.
