History

Antiquity

Originally an independent khanate, sometimes a tributary of the Abka khagan, its borders have shifted over time with the political fortunes of the Yonggan and the relative strength of the state centered in Ba Sing Se. The Alarame People, one of several predecessors of the Yonggan, Nogai, and Abka, intermittently recognized the Earth King as their overlord since the late Di dynasty, though their territory was not an organic part of the Earth Kingdom until the Tu. The Yonggan State, by that name, was formally created in the Di dynasty. Although still designated as a guo (國), it is been a directly-governed province since the the Earth Kingdom Civil War.

After being reduced in size by the Hao Ting after the Yonggan support of Chin the Conqueror, the de facto boundaries of the state have expanded again in the past few decades, as ambitious local leaders have gained effective control over Yonggan-majority areas from neighboring jurisdictions. The central government, preoccupied with the Fire Nation invasion, has not taken any effective action to reverse this, and the scholar-official appointed as Governor by the Earth King appears to be subordinate to a Yonggan nationalist warlord, Gioro Emoto Dabciku. No taxes have been remitted to Ba Sing Se since 72 AG.
