History
Yenjing was originally settled in 1845 by Chinese settlers. It was incorporated as a town in 1869. Up until the 1920s, it was simply a trading village with nothing much else than some traditional Chinese houses, until urbanization and industrialization of the city began. By 1962, the city had a population of about around 75,000.

In 1969, it became the capital of the newly-formed Amery Socialist Citystate. A project of collectivization later occured, in which from 1970 - 1980 thousands of people from rural villages nearby were relocated and settled in the city against their own will. Alongside this, the city became extremely urbanized, with the skyline being dominated by tall apartment buildings inspired by the ones in the (main ally and what the ASC was considered a satellite state of). By 1988, the city had roughly around 750,000 people living in it.

The city would have began a steep process of being slowly less populated over time, but the city was renovated in a project which is called the Xinshi Project, improving the city with many new opportunities during the period of the 1990s.
