+===== Origin of the Name =====
+The name "Vest Yorvik" is Old Norse for "West York", which is what the Canton was originally called.
+===== History =====
+The Canton of Vest Yorvik was founded in A.S. 17 as the Canton of West York; it became Vest Yorvik two years later, in A.S. 19. According to [[people:colyne_stewart|Colyne Stewart's]] //History of Ealdormere//, the foundation of Vest Yorvik was a matter of some contention, as it lay between the border of [[branches:barony:septentria|Septentria]] and [[branches:barony:skraeling_althing|Skraeling Althing]], which caused then Baroness [[history:territorial_barons_baronesses:enid_of_skraeling_althing|Enid Aurelia of the Tin Isles]] to "protest vehemently". The issue was eventually resolved peaceably, as such things tend to be. (This is to be verified as Vest Yorvik is to the west or Eoforwic, closer to Rising Waters than Skraeling Althing)
