Hussarias is a well defended city with around 15 members. It is located in the southwestern corner of Hussaria which is in the Katsura region. The city boasts powerful walls that are both functional and nice to look at.

Government
The mayor and founder of Hussarias is Arnelious Flegenhorn.

Arnelious is also the king of Hussaria as a whole.

History
The Hussarians Built their city very quickly after arriving to the land of Eldham. They soon grew very patriotic and wanted to have their independence. However, Donfuer caught wind of their plot and eventually settled the dispute through a violent show of force.

The Hussarians were humiliated but they never gave up. The city was officially completed 2 weeks after it was created. A new member named Matt helped get Hussarias some recognition on the world stage through trading, Arnelious Flegenhorn worked on diplomacy, and Roasted Bacon slaved away in the mines- making himself as well as Hussarias rich with recourses.

In August of 2021, Donfuer joined the northern lights alliance. Hussarias strongly supported this change, believing it would benefit the whole nation tremendously.

In September, Hussarias grew immensely. They bagun massive expansions to the city on September 1st, 2021 in order to increase their international fame and influence. The city tripled in size due to these efforts.

Hussarias declared independence from Donfuer and formed the Kingdom of Hussaria on October 7th, 2021.

In November, Hussarias was raided by a horde of barbarians. Nearly all of their recources were lost as a result of this. The city was also greatly damaged. In December, restoration efforts were made and completed quickly. The goal of these efforts was to restore the city to its former glory. These goals were far exceded an now the city is magnificent as ever!

The Battle of Green Tower
On September 2nd of 2021, Hussarias declared itself to be a city with loyalties to the religion of rattism. This came as a result of the ongoing search for a religion that the Hussarians could be apart of.

On september 4th, only 2 days later, the crusades against Rattism began. This came as a shock to the 2 Hussarians who were in the city. A major expansion was being built at the time and the wall had just been erected when it suddenly had 3 attackers building a wooden siege tower outside it to the north. The tower was surrounded in bamboo which gave the event its name. A storm of arrows rained down into the city as the crusaders demanded that the Hussarians revoke their loyalties to Rattism. The defenders promptly refused. The fighting lasted an hour and was entirely fought with bows until the very end when Arnelious Flegenhorn rushed the green tower alone.

In the end the Mighty walls of Hussarias were never breached and the attackers fled, which was likely due to a lack of supplies. A small amount of loot was lost but in the aftermath the loot was returned and repirations from the attackers were paid.

Later that night, Sturlengar, a Rattist fortress, was attacked by an army of 20 crusaders and it was quickly wiped out. despite their victory, Hussarias decided to abandon Rattism the next day. They chose instead to return to their former policy of freedom of religion. This decision was not taken lightly.

Culture
The word Hussarias is derived from the word "Hussar", which is a type of cavalry. This explains why Hussarians are uncommonly referred to as Hussars. Horses are a major part of their culture and economy. The tradition of using horses started long ago during the days of the Hussarian Empire. Now the Hussarians believe that they must honor their Imperial ancestors by furthering Hussarias. This is why the hierarchy system is based on how much you do to increase the prosperity of Hussarias

Hussarians also have a tendency to get very drunk very often. This especially happens when wheat beer is present..

Capitol building
The capitol building is by far the largest and most grandiose of all the structures in Hussarias. It features 2 wings and an impressive dome in the middle. The interior of the dome is covered in fantastical designs and below them is the throne of Hussaria. The building also has a courtroom and an assembly hall for the leaders and foreign diplomats. The upper floor holds offices for all the Hussarian government as well as the personal living quarters of Arnelious Flegenhorn.

Keep
Another notable structure is the keep. It is located in the old city and formerly was the townhall until the new capitol was built. Today it is the military headquarters of Hussaria. The interior features a dungeon, armory, storage room, and an enchanting room.

The Drunken Rider
The Drunken Rider is an inn and tavern where citizens often congregate and get drunk on fine wine together. The drinks there are always on the house and imported from Thorpecove, another town in Hussaria. The inn portion is in the upper floor and can accomodate up to 3 guests.
