====== Free Cities ======

The term "Free Cities" is used in the context that these holdings in southwestern [[atlas:Miran]] are not a part of any of the major nations. The list of free cities is always fluid as they may be conquered by their neighbors, fall to civil war, or simply collapse with the death of their leader. However, there are Free Cities that have survived for generations and will likely for generations to come.

Most of the territory claimed by the various nations have been from lands that once belonged to [[atlas:Pah]]. The many wars of conquest with the [[orgs:Pah'Shar]] have led to a situation where a local lord can only control the territory he actively patrols. Pah huntsmen and warriors will sack any village that is not well defended.
