Urg. Yes, this changes the entire environment and makes an action I took last turn (Investigate Videssian Church) pretty much useless. (Still, it was an extra action, so I guess it's no big deal.) Can we resolve the situation this way (Explaining the basically unchanged situation in Parglug and the Free Cities.): After the fall of Videssia Parglug raiders and pirates from around the MidSea proceeded to raid the coastal and riverine settlements they could reach, almost completely depopulating the coast and far up the Prand and Imbros. More interested in plunder than conquest, Parglug planted no colonies and few rulers. Busy with their own rivalries, the Free Cities have also failed to plant colonies in the abandoned areas which have begun to return to wilderness. (Possibly with the aide of the Tana and Onagir?) Not wishing to see a rival at their backs, these two groups also prevented other nations from colonizing the area. In the interior the situation is unstable and limited only by the lack of resources. At least have a dozen contenders claim the title of "Emperor" and many other nobles are complete and undisputed rulers of their own lands.
