Description[?]:
| The House of Fortschritt is a Dorvish noble family that places claim upon the throne of Dorvik. The dynasty traces their lineage back to Otto XX (Otto Wilhelm Von Faust-Essen), who reigned from 5139-5191. They are descended from Otto’s second son, Augustus Wilhelm. The family claims that Otto’s first son, Leopold VIII, was not eligible to take the Dorvish throne because of reported ambiguity surrounding his birth legitimacy. These claims have only emerged over one hundred years after Leopold’s reign however. As such, members of the House of Fortschritt are eligible to run in the elections for König of Dorvik. The family was granted the title of Graf Von Rheinau (Luthorian: Count of Rheinau), under the rule of König Leopold VIV. They have held the title ever since, albeit ceremonially for most of that time due to the abolition of nobility in Dorvik. The current head of the dynasty is Albert Leopold Arthur Von Fortschritt, who is the current Count of Rheinau. The family currently resides at Freiheitshaus, in Rheinau, Kordusia. Freiheitshaus is a manor home constructed in 5450 for the family, made in a much older style to give the home more character. The family often uses the surrounding land for cold-weather farming as an extra source of income. During the years of the Dorvische Republik, the House of Fortschritt gained immense wealth through investment banking and trading on the stock market. In recent years they have also built up a reputation for extravagant spending and frivolous activity, such as gambling. Though the family claims this reputation to be unfair. They have a tendency to support the Liberale Volkspartei and are often seen as being affiliated with them. |
