When the Empire dissolved, it was the capital of the short-lived Jaegian Kingdom, an attempt by northern nobles to form their own successor state. The kingdom was almost immediately drawn into a bloody civil war following its heavy-handed treatment of demands for autonomy by several ethnic and racial minorities, such as Soral-speaking humans, and collapsed during the 1860s with the City of Jaege declaring itself an independent state governed by the merchant oligarchy. Nowadays the Free City is a bustling metropolis that has transitioned to a democratic, liberal government and continues to experience a steady influx of immigrants from the rest of Atsiq.
