What Happened to Dol-Makjar’s Revolution?

How did Dol-Makjar change from the city Teor remembers, and what remains of its revolutionary institutions and ideals?

The Revolutionary Council still exists, but the Chamber has exercised unprecedented authority, Sundered House forces dominate public order and House Halovar is expanding a religious movement the city has resisted. Episode 1 shows the transformation but not the full political history behind it.
