Yardistan (Yardistani: Iardista [jar'dis.ta]), sometimes known as the Isle of Yardistan, is an island and county subject to the Emirate of Sathrati.
Historically, the term Yardistan referred to the larger group of islands comprising Sathrati, then known as the Duchy of Yardistan. The county has existed in one form or another since Shireroth left Tymaria, making it one of the older territories in the Imperial Republic. Its history stretches farther back than that, into the days of Hegemony of Alexandros. It was famed for its unique culture and tradition of rebellion and annexation, an activity primarily undertaken by the old Yardistani Annexation Corps.
