History[]
Prior to the foundation of Magnostadt, the Magicians were discriminated and persecuted in the Musta'sim Kingdom. However, after learing the Musta'sim Kingdom's development have not been advanced for decades and being used as shield against the Parthevian Empire's army during a war, the Magicians decided to build a country of their own.
Magnostadt was just a Magic Academy from the former Kingdom when the Magicians and citizens, led by Matal Mogamett, rebelled and attacked the nobles and the Royal Family; the Princess Dunya Musta'sim was the only one who escaped and survived. Since then, a new country was founded by Mogamett.

Magnostadt citizens are divided into 5 different classes, and according to those classes, the places where you can enter, the place where you live and even who you can marry or how many children you can have are severely restricted.

Trivia[]
- The current name of the kingdom "Magnostadt" is probably a combination of the Latin word Magnus (great) and the German word Stadt (city).
- The previous name of the kingdom, "Musta'sim", is derived from Arabic مُستَعصِم Musta3ṣim (also written as "Musta'sim" in more common, but less precise transcription), an adjective describing one whom exercises restraint in face of temptation. The kingdom also shared its name with Al-Musta'sim Billah, the last Abbasid Caliph in Baghdad.
