Lükanburg (Martino: Lucamburgo) is a city in the north of Apollonia. Home to the football team Lükanburg FK.

Originally, a Landish marquissate granted to Nathan Waffel-Paine in 1518, it was brought to the Green in 1548 before being annexed by Natopia in 1624. In 1681, the city was transferred along with New Aquitane (Saint Christopher's) to Senyan sovereignty. Senya held sovereingty until early 1761 when it collapsed, and the city was once again brought under the anarchy of the Green.

Marquises

The letter patent of 1518, written by Grand Czar Aleksander-Wilhelm III, creating the marquissate read:

Creation of the Marquis of Lükanburg

Thereafter, the rules have somewhat changed from absolute primogeniture to largely be in a personal union with Natopia, but not always and entirely. The rules are now a little unclear, but it is clear, however, only members of the House of Waffel-Paine may inherit and possess the title.
