During Transbaltia's period under Ahranian rule, dozens of palaces and manors were constructed for Ahranian and Uppsunder royals and nobles, who were attracted to the warmer climates of southern Transbaltia. After the 1912 Transbaltian Declaration of Independence, all assets of Ahranian authority were seized, however after seeing how Ahranian royals were treated in the new nationalist state, Grand Duke Friedrich issued an act to redistribute a number of seized estates to those forced into exile. After the 1937 re-establishment of the monarchy in Ahrana, acts were passed to resize a few palaces, whilst also properly allocating some residences for the monarch and specific members of the Ahranian nobility.
Similar acts were passed following the socialist takeover of Ahrana, providing shelter for not only nobles but many Ahranians forced into exile. For a time these palaces were the centre of the Ahranian exile community. There still exists calls on both sides for what to do with the palaces. Some argue that all Transbaltian palaces should be free from foreign ownership, whilst others argue that the seizure of palaces in 1912 was illegal and that they ought to be returned to Ahranian nobility.
