The Sauromatians actually had conquered that province at one point, however in the war of Agarthan aggression it was cut off from the rest of the empire and overrun by hostile bandits. However our historical claim remains. Given how easy it would be for our cavalry to seize the said territory (and how your nation doesn't share a border with mine other than with that lone territory), I think that offering you any compensation at all is extraordinarily generous.
