- The Century of Blood was the period of chaos lasting approximately one hundred years that followed the Doom of Valyria. With its capital city destroyed in a single day by a cataclysmic volcanic eruption, the Valyrian Freehold which spanned most of Essos quickly collapsed. The once mighty empire fragmented, as colony cities and conquered people rose up, or local governors started looking out for themselves.

The once mighty empire fragmented, as colony cities and conquered people rose up, or local governors started looking out for themselves. The Century of Blood was not a single war but a period of general anarchy, a mad free-for-all in which alliances constantly shifted. It was the formative period for what would become the nine Free Cities, as well as the three independent cities in Slaver's Bay, which shaped the political landscape of western Essos to the present day.
