Klassenberg



The Duchy of Klassenberg (クラッセンブルク, Kurassenburuku) is a region in the northwestern parts of the kingdom of Yurgenschmidt, and currently holds the state of a greater duchy.

The territory is bordered by the following other territories:
 * The duchy of Ehrenfest to the far Southeast
 * The duchy of Lortzing to the South.
 * The duchy of Gaussbuttel to the Southwest.
 * The duchy of Josbrenner to the West
 * The former territory of the duchy of Zausengas to the Southeast.
 * an unnamed country to the North

Several years ago there was a coup within the Sovereignty. Klassenberg was the strongest ally of the prince that eventually became the new king. Their victory was in large parts thanks to Klassenberg and as a result their influence has greatly increased after the war.

Following this victory Klassenberg was charged with managing the former territories of Zausengas.

Furthermore the duchy had close ties to royalty even before the coup, since the daughter of Aub Klassenberg was married to the now deceased third prince of the kingdom. The two of them had a daughter Eglantine together. Upon the death of the prince, Aub Klassenberg adopted the girl - his own granddaughter - as his daughter.

Due to her royal blood and the great influence that Klassenberg holds within the kingdom, Eglantine has become highly sought after by the current first and second princes of the Sovereignty, since winning her hand in marriage would be a great step forward toward securing the right of succession for the throne.

They are currently ranked as the highest of all the duchies.


 * Nobles of Klassenberg receive a red cloak when they go to the Royal Academy. The red colour is Klassenberg's ducal colour.
 * Looking at the japanese name クラッセンブルク, "Klassenburg" as transcription seems to resemble the japanese more. While "-berg" stands for "Berg" which means mountain in German, "-burg" stands for "Burg" which means "castle" in German.
