The Sovereign State of Hyspia, also called Hyspia or sometimes New Hyspia, is a a Farfolk nation which follows an absolute hereditary monarchy style of government. Hyspia is inhabited by Hyspians and other Farfolk cultures. Unlike a handful of its neighbors, Hyspia remains faithful to the Church of the Canon as its official religion. The Viceroyalty was founded by Cesar I, Viceroy of Hyspia in the year 78 S.A. on the continent of Almaris. With the permission of High Pontiff Tylos II, the Hyspians settled the city of Niseep, which was a former Savoyard city left to the Church after the death of its former Count. The High Pontiff granted the Hyspians the city, and the settlers chose to keep the name of the city to honor the former Savoyard inhabitants. After a drought forced the Hyspians from Niseep, Viceroy Cesar I bent the knee to Karl III of Haense and was allowed to settle the Ciudad de Plata on the old Haelun'orian Island. However, on the year 152 of the second age the grandson of Cesar I, Cesar II, Viceroy of Hyspia, would lead the Hyspian people and the new Farfolk citizens of Hyspia to a new age of Hyspian independence in Aevos. The now independent Hyspia provides a home for its people in the capital city of La Dorada.

Government & Peerage
== Government ==
The Sovereign State of Hyspias government is based around Ministries, known more formally as the Sovereign Council. Council members are styled with His/Her Excellency unless a higher title supersedes this, such as His/Her Highness. There are four council positions, the Ministro del Pais, Colonel del Regimiento, Ministro de Interior and the Gran Chamberlan. Outside of these council positions, advisors are taken on at the discretion of the Sovereign and Sovereign-Consort.
The Ministro del Pais deals in diplomatic affairs, acting as Hyspias envoy and negotiating pacts and treaties alike.
The Colonel del Regimiento oversees the Orden de Francisco, Hyspias military, and the safety of the Sovereign State.
The Ministro de Interiors office oversees the taxing of property within Hyspia, alongside the aiding of new citizens and tracking of the populace via the census.
The Gran Chamberlan oversees the courts of Hyspia, expanding on the culture and setting the expectations of the Hyspian people alongside the Sovereign-Consort.
== Peerage ==
Within the Sovereign State of Hyspia, there are four title rankings that can be earned: Barony, Viscounty, County and Duchy.
The earning of a peerage, i.e. nobility within Hyspia is done through a system in which an active presence and reputation with the Sovereign State needs to be maintained. This is achieved through large families, governmental, court and military work - alongside the hosting of events within the city. It is the Sovereigns prerogative and theirs alone to grant a peerage to a family they find deserving.
There are currently four titled peerages, beginning first with the highest ranked and eldest family and moving to the newest:
The Denodado Household, a Viscounty within Hyspia and known as the Viscounty of Banderas. They were initially known as the Novikovs, having lived in the Kingdom of Hanseti-Ruska and become close with the de Pelear household during the Haense-Hyspia vassalship. Later when Hyspia left their vassalship and become a protectorate instead, the Denodados would join them in leaving and aid in the forming of the Protectorate of Hyspia. Their familial culture came to be known as Hanso-Hyspian. Granted peerage under Viceroy Cesar II reign.
The Halcourt Household, a Barony within Hyspia and known as the Barony of Campagnon. The family came originally from the Commonwealth of Petra, having left due to disagreements of unknown reasons. They would move to Hyspia, initially of an Auvergnian familial culture, adapting overtime to Hyspias ways. Granted peerage under Viceroy Cesar II reign.
The Salazar Household, a Barony within Hyspia and known as the Barony of Campos Salvajes. The family had been based in Hyspia from the start, though making their debut in Hyspias very first El Puente, i.e. social season. They filled the ranks of the military, providing themselves in defending against a darkspawn raid known as the Clash of Sands. Alongside this, they came to be known for their ranching and rodeos, wasting no time in ascending to nobility. Granted peerage under Sovereign Ramona I reign.
The del Maravilla Household, a Dual Barony within Hyspia, known as the Dual Barony of Soles Gemelos. Founded by the twin royals, Princess-Royal Renata Alba and Infante Rafael Arsenico, the twins were rewarded for their endless work within Hyspia. From diplomacy to culture, they worked on it all - and their titular titles given due to their royal birth were made to be inheritable, naming them as the Baron of Evaristus and the Baroness of Clemente. Granted peerage under Sovereign Ramona I reign.
== Defunct Peerages ==
The Maor Household, once a noble household, known as the Barony of Montenno. Stripped of peerage under Viceroy Cesar II reign.
