Mercoburg Hospitallers

History
The Mercoburg Hospitallers is a political party formed in 2362 by Augustus, Duke of Mercoburg, appealing to a general revolution against what he called the "opressive regime" in Solania.

The party was organized on a feudal structure, being the property of a single family, the Mercoburgs, has, however, thousands of supporters in the working class, due to the political unrest in the country during the last centuries. The Mercoburgs openly defend the superiority of the aristocracy and it's "divine right" to rule over the country.

The Mercoburgs date back to the foundation of the Mercoburg Town (near Olinthus), in the middle ages. Their inflence grew over time, and so did their rivalty with a neighbouring aristocratic family, the Delamere's, who eventually, also in 2362, founded it's own party, with a simillar struture: the Ducal House of Delamere.
