The Steerswick Guard Hussar Regiment (Cibolan Saxon: Stierschweigisches Garde-Husaren-Regiment) is an armoured cavalry regiment and the most senior regiment of the Steerswick Army. The personal bodyguard of the Grand Duchess Lystasia, it is garrisoned in the city of Steerswick. As of 1717 AN, it has a strength of 674 personnel.

History

The regiment traces its origins to the 3rd Lichguard Armoured Reconnaissance Battalion "Steermark", raised in 1593 AN by the Duke of Rossheim. In III.1598 AN, the battalion became the nucleus of the Kingdom of Leichenberg's 2nd Lich Hussar Regiment, which was renamed the Lich Hussar Regiment No. 2 (1st Stiermark) in VIII.1598 AN and finally the Stiermark Hussar Regiment (Lich Hussar Regiment No. 2) in XIV.1598 AN.

Redesignated the Stiermark Dragoons in XI.1608 AN, the regiment was belatedly transferred to the Steerian army in IV.1626 AN, where it continued to serve until the kingdom's collapse in 1660 AN.

It was revived under its present name by the Grand Duchy of Steerswick on 9.XIII.1702 AN.
