Strangely, the people of Carcassone, though warriors all, have a particular interest in poetry and music. This ensures a strong bond of friendship between the people of Brionne to the north and the people of Carcassonne to the south. The Carcassonnians like to listen to Brionnian minstrels when they have time, and those who can travel visit Castle Brionne to see the wonders of the city. The Carcassonnians are proud of these achievements because, they say, they fight to make such things possible. They fight so that the Brionnians do not have to, and they are justly proud of this. The current ruler is Duke Huebald.[1a]

- Carcassonne (; ) is a fortified French town in the Aude department, of which it is the prefecture, in the former province of Languedoc. It is divided into the fortified Cité de Carcassonne and the more expansive lower city, the ville basse. Carcassone was founded by the Visigoths in the fifth century, though the Romans had fortified the settlement earlier. The fortress, which was thoroughly restored in 1853 by the theorist and architect Eugène Viollet-le-Duc, was added to the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites in 1997. The folk etymology – involving a châtelaine named Carcas, a ruse ending a siege and the joyous ringing of bells (" sona") – though memorialized in a neo-Gothic sculpture of Mme. on a column near the Narbonne Gate, is of modern invention. The name can be derived as an augmentative of the name Carcas. Similarly in Italian, there are derived names like Castellino (little castle) – Castello – Castellone (big castle), or Ombrellino (small umbrella) – Ombrello – Ombrellone (large umbrella). The double 's' in the name appears for phonetic reasons, as a single 's' would be pronounced as 'z'.

- Tile-based boardgame (and its numerous sequels) in which players compete to control and complete cities, roads and fields. Part of the Euro Game genre. It takes place in the southern France city of Carcassonne, with each player representing the land developers responsible for the city's famous architecture and layout. The gameplay has players drawing tiles with roads, cities, fields, and farms on them, and placing them on the table to match other tiles. When a player places a tile, they can put one of their "meeples" (small wooden pieces representing workers) on one of its features. When a given feature is completed (trails having two end points, cities being completely enclosed, etc.), the player with a meeple on it scores points. The game ends when every tile has been placed, and the player with the most points is the winner.
