Despite an anti-speciesm movement amongst the Z'rei population, Nekomimi were forced to have their own churches and Z'rei faced stigmatisation for their activism. When Z'rei leader, Fly'ra'du-Øzna was crowned Emperor following the overthrow of the Monarchy by an attack on Zhar'osyk in 1709 by the Ry'uk army, speciest policies were gradually reversed. Nevertheless, reforms were circumscribed by rebellions of the Az'ra such as the Wars of Reclamation (1734-1762) whereby the Z'rei-led empire was usurped and replaced with the Az'ra-dominated Kæra Republic and the drastic reduction of the Nekomimi population. Some limited reforms were attempted in the late 18th and early 19th century, however such did not include extending of the franchise to non-elves and as such allowed Azraic supremacists such as economist and eugenicist Kel'næ to rally anti-Nekomimi sentiment amongst the electorate, culminating in the reinstatement of the monarchy. Due to the efforts of Kel'næ's followers in the Az'ra Society, the newly declared Kingdom of the Kæra ensured a number of speciest policies reformed by the Republic were annulled, and an exemption to habeas corpus was instituted for all non-elves.
 
While the rights of Kemonomimi were briefly improved following the 1851 Nylic Revolution, efforts to facilitate the Nekomimi population ended entirely following the end of [[the Grey Interim]]. Under the newly-declared Collective Republic, the [[Cult nihilism (ideology)|Cult nihilist]] movement - notably spearheaded by political factions such as the [[Fundamental Doctrinaires]] and [[Cult of Absolute Purity]] - were placed in positions of power, which further allowed for the entrenchment of speciest principles in the political, economic and social systems of the state. Such principles would, throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, allow regimes led by members of thosethe factions[[Cult of Absolute Purity|Purity]] faction to enact policies of [[W:Eugenics|eugenics]] and the extermination or expulsion of the non-Az'ra population, in genocides such as the [[Driving of the Kemonomimi]] and later the more extreme Purification of Sight.
 
With the creation of the Office for Citizen Appraisal as a regulatory body which enshrined mandatory positive and negative eugenics as a core function of the state, Kæra'zna has been considered both officially and abroad as an Az'ra ethnostate. Since the [[Great War]], following a tide of anti-Z'rei sentiment due to the nation's [[Kæra Occupational Authority|occupation]] by [[Zreiru'a]], the Kæra government has maintained such a state of being through the banning of unpermitted crossings or permeant migration in or out of the country, known as the closed-door policy.
