History

The Grand Duchy of Ensorburgh has played a crucial role in Garránia's governance and diplomacy since its establishment on July 1st, 2022, coinciding with the founding of the Empire of Garránia. It derives its name from the Royal House of Ensor, the lineage of Emperor Ezekiel Ensor I. From its inception, the Grand Duchy of Ensorburgh has been an integral part of Garránia's political and social development. It has steadfastly supported and contributed to the Empire's achievements, notably as the de facto capital, Ensorburgh, also serves as the current seat of the Emperor.

Despite its relatively short history, the Grand Duchy of Ensorburgh has already been involved in several significant events. In August 2022, the province experienced the impact of Hurricane Ian, resulting in substantial damage to various areas of Ensorburgh. Nevertheless, thanks to the assistance provided by U.S. American recovery efforts, the province swiftly recovered from the aftermath of the storm.
