Guardia Castle is the seat of government for the kingdom of Guardia. Its physical location is within the Rabite Forest.

History

The first bricks of Guardia Castle were laid around the year 250. It has been renovated and improved a few times since then, EG for the installation of electrical power from Rocket Town to the south.

During the construction of the castle, the elderly Queen disappeared and was presumed dead. Since then, the structure of government has been modified to give more power to the cabinet members and chancellor, making finding a successor unimportant since they wouldn't have much actual clout anyway.

Sights

Guardia Castle has employed the most famous pastry chef in the region, Chef Torte. His wares are sold to the public in the castle cafeteria.

The Guardia throne, while totally empty, is still in the throne room and just as opulent as ever.

Politics

See main article at Guardia#Central Government

While Guardia claims to be a Kingdom, and there is even an actual throne, there has never been an actual monarch since Guardia Castle was built. All the actual work of governing is performed by a group of ministers who are appointed by the Knights of the Square Table, who are elected by popular vote.
