Buzela was named after late Calth-era explorer Hamish Buzel as Buzel Island in 1675. It remained quiet and only inhabited by several merchants at any one time. The island was used primarily as a mid way island to Joralesia until the early 18th century as tensions in Joralesia rose. In the early 1720s a naval halfway point was established to better the Morstaybishlian position during wartime. Since the 1720s the island has seen a steady increase in population and as of 2013 the population stands at 315,200.
In 1891, Rosamund II had the island renamed Buzela to appear more feminine.
A few rocky islets west of Buzela which were previously unexplored were found in 1977 to have several dozen breeding pairs of puffins and a similar amount of razorbills. Since then the island has seen an increase of tourists from Joralesia and surrounding Gondwanan countries.
