| ''"The Bazaar stole London three decades ago. Of course only anarchists and revolutionaries say 'stole' any more. Everyone who matters has grown to know and love the status quo. It's quiet down here. All those jewels and mushrooms and all that black water. What could be better?"''

| Now known as Fallen London or the Fifth City, '''London''' was formerly the capital of the British Empire... until it was kidnapped by [[the Bazaar]] and its [[The Masters|Masters]] and placed in the lawless cavern called the Neath, in exchange for the life of the ailing Prince Albert. ([[Victoria]] loved him that dearly.)

| Things have changed since the fall, and names have been replaced with new ones. And while second part only carries political interests of the [[The Masters of the Bazaar|Masters]], changes can`t be explained only by that. As years have passed, Londoners started to notice that old maps contradict new ones (not to mention pre-fall ones, but those are illegal now<ref>{{FLCitation|https://fallenlondon.fandom.com/wiki/Sidebar_Snippets|Why is it so easy to get lost in Fallen London?|Fallen London|}}''Don't be caught with one''</ref>). Simple explanation is that there are just no worthy cartographer in this city, but seasoned zailors, as well as geography professors report similar observations all over the Neath. For someone standing just under the spires of the [[The Echo Bazaar|Bazaar]], direction to any other point of interest would be the same, but the route would be different every time. There are rumours about the map of London that is so precise, that it could even tack small deviations of roads changing places<ref>{{FLCitation|https://fallenlondon.fandom.com/wiki/Complete_your_Hoard|Complete your Hoard|Fallen London|}}''You can't draw all of the streets of London on the same sheet of paper. ''</ref>. But if something like this could ever exist, it would be locked away from public - Masters don`t like when people try to dig too deep.<gallery>
