Margravate of Brandenburg-Bohemia
The leader of the House of Brandenburg-Bohemia styles himself as a Margrave, and has his main court in the castle of Magdeburg. Although Magdeburg was hardly the richest province when the house was created by Theodericus der Bartige in 1114, it had prior to this been transformed into the Reich's leading military center. As such, members of the house all have access to the best training grounds in the Reich, and can take part of the castle's traditions of discipline. If such is not to a member's taste, the castle is surrounded by forests, with plenty of hunting opportunities, and if a proper city life is preferred, secondary locales are available in Prague as well.
As the Margrave is within his house first and foremost a military rank, the Margrave is expected to take a big responsibility over the Duchy's armed forces. As such his place is always in command of Magdeburg whenever he is not out campaigning in the field.
