Biesen is the 2nd largest realm in Auseka, and the only one still formally at war with Vericum. It has a short border with the empire, which has been frozen in a standoff for years now.

The realm is a double-monarchy with two kings of equal authority, represented by the two two crowns on its flag.

Biesen is also famous for having completely outlawed the use of magic by private citizens or foreigners. Only mages sworn to the king may legally use magic in Biesen, and the penalties for even the smallest unsanctioned spells are harsh.

These are not the only things that Biesen has in common with its eastern neighbour, the theocracy of Schap. Both are of the same cultural heritage, the Shwazen culture, with Biesen having a slightly stronger northern influence. Like Grasalia to the west, Biesen is a northern country with long and cold winters, and especially its northern coast is relatively cold even in summer.

Economy

Biesen is a prosperous realm, and what it does not have on its own territory, it imports. Especially high-quality metal from its dwarven neighbours in Alheimia is very common in Biesen, and along the border are many villages with excellent blacksmiths.

Only the north-west of Biesen is a poor, backwater and mostly rural area, as the treacherous seas do not allow for large trading ships and the distance by land is considerable, with the roads frozen in winter and muddy throughout most of the rest of the year.
