Ambaqwe was originally founded in 877 AD by [[Tierrador#Qabóri Woqalate|Qabóri]] settlers looking to open a small trade hub in the southern provinces of the Woqalate. For most of its history, Ambaqwe primarily served as a small fishing and agricultural hub, though only being known within the region where it was located. During the [[Orixtal Crusade]], the city served a strategically important role for the Woqalate until it was captured by [[Zurgite Varshan|Varshani Warriors]] in 1651. The city was entirely burned to the ground due to scattered Varshani raids in 1654. Even after Qabór managed to quickly take the city back, they determined that the damage had already been done, and abandoned the city until 1844, when Hectór Cruz, at the time the Governor of the [[Republic of Auqali & Sonaxa (1727–1910)|Auqali & Sonaxa]], refounded the city as a terminus for major rail transportation routes throughout Auqali. This, along with the discovery of vast pockets of {{wp|copper}} and {{wp|iron ore}} throughout the surrounding areas, spurred rapid growth. Twenty years later, in 1864, Ambaqwe was officially incorporated as the City of Ambaqwe.
