  • Auriana, national capital of Aurianus was first settled in 1431 on the site of the former Roman town of Auris. Auriana was built in a Renaissance, Neo-classical style, but was also influenced by the architecture of its neighbours giving it a distinctly Swiss/Austrian feel. In addition, the Roman ruins were retained and rebuilt to their original appearance as a legacy of the region's historied past. The city has often been referred to as the jewel in the crown of the alpine micro-nation, and was declared a UNESCO world heritage site in 1987 due to its status as a virtually unspoiled example of a North European city built in the Renaissance style. The city is also famed for its unique cultural heritage as exemplified by its myriad galleries and museums, the most notable example being the Aurianan Hermitage bequeathed to the city by Crown Princess Catherine. The city became the national capital shortly after its initial construction, rapidly growing in large part due to the relocation of the royal court to the city from the historic Township of Auri. Auriana has seen the rise and fall of many empires that have grown around it, however the insular ane xenophobic attitude Aurianus has historically taken to foreign policy has ensured the oft coveted city has remained firmly under Aurianan control.
