Hausgran Empire Type: Constitutional monarchy Monarch: Queen Karolina Adelaida of House Gashbur Creator: CaptainTybusen The Hausgran Empire, sitting to the east of Morcia, is an empire built through hegemony and marriage, the influential House of Gashbur expanding the borders of the initially small Hausgrania by marrying into the ruling families of countless kingdoms that have since united with Hausgrania to form the expansive empire it is today. However, the recent accession of Queen Karolina Adelaida, the first female head of House Gashbur, has caused instability to rack the Empire as ruling families of the Empire's numerous sub-states debate the legitimacy of Queen Karolina's rule. That, combined with conflict with their neighbor Morcia, has resulted in a period of great disarray for the Empire.

When united, Hausgran has a military and a navy that can easily stand up to the other great powers, and a fairly stable economy largely thanks to Hausgran's methods of expansion. Hausgranians consider themselves very culturally refined and appreciative of the fine arts and music, and have a certain amount of snobbery for those they consider unrefined. While they are devoutly faithful to their religion, they are decidedly more humanistic than they are religious.
