The most notable exclusion from the Estates system are the Caenish people, who, though ruled by the same Apostolic King of Urcea since 1144, developed a social system altogether less familial and more individual-based independent of the Estates system. Ruled as a mostly separate domain of the King, Canaery was only fully integrated into the Kingdom in the 19th century. There was a movement during the late 1910s and early 1920s to add five Caenish Estates to the rolls of the Urcean Estate system, but a prolonged dispute as to whether or not the King could do so was interrupted by the Great War, which, besides putting the issue on the "back burner", so to speak, also prompted further cultural interaction between Urceans and a weakening of the Estate system. | The most notable exclusion from the Estates system are the Caenish people, who, though ruled by the same Apostolic King of Urcea since 1144, developed a social system altogether less familial and more individual-based independent of the Estates system.
