Ahrensbach



The Duchy of Ahrensbach is a region on the south eastern edge of the kingdom of Yurgenschmidt, rated as a greater duchy. The current first wife of the Aub is Georgine, the elder sister of Aub Ehrenfest.

The territory is bordered by the following other territories:
 * The duchy of Ehrenfest to the North
 * The duchy of Frenbeltag to the Northwest
 * The former territory of the duchy of Werkerstock to the West
 * The duchy of Dunkelfelge to the Southwest
 * an unnamed country to the East
 * an unnamed Ocean to the South

Several years ago there was a coup within the Sovereignty. Ahrensbach was fully involved in the civil war and eventually the side they allied with won. This victory brought them much acclaim by the current ruler and increased their influence, but their direct involvement in the fighting still came at a great cost, leaving them as short on mana as the rest of the duchies. After the war the territory of the Duchy of Berkerstock - located to Ahrensbach's West - was split, with Ahrensbach being chosen to manage the northern half, while Dunkelfelge was put in charge of the southern half.

Spoiler from Part 4 Volume 2 Despite being on the side of the victors of the civil war, Ahrensbach still ended up plummeting in the duchy rankings.

A short time ago Aub Ahrensbach's first wife died and his former third wife Georgine was chosen as the new first wife. While the exact dates are not known to the people of Ehrenfest, the first time Georgine acompanied the Aub to the Archduke's conference was the year following Rozemyne's baptism and adoption.
