It's Tree-Girt-Sea, and it's a Canton of the Barony of Ayreton. If you run into VERY old documents, especially hand calligraphied ones, it's sometimes referred to as The City on the Tree-Girt-Sea.
Chicago (and some of it's suburbs) is collectively the Barony of Ayreton. It has 5 other Cantons: Foxvale, Gret Gargoyles, Lochmorrow, Rokkehealden, and Vanished Wood.
(And yes, that's in the Mid. There is a Clicky Map here:
http://www.midrealm.org/cartography/
which is good for general info, though not SO good for specific territories. It also gets names and statuses not-quite-right from time to time - For instance it DOES have Tree-Girt-Seas as "Province" which it is not, and all the other Cantons listed as Shires. So it needs some tweaking, but it's pretty new).
