The House of Rahdenburg (Gariman: Haus Rahdenburg; Latin: Domus Radenburgensis) is a Gariman elector dynasty whose members were at times princes, electors, grand dukes, kings, and emperors of Rahden, Rahdenburg, Polnitsa, Sydalon, and the Holy Audonian Empire. The family is believed to have originated from around X, Tervingia, in modern day Ostrovaza. They took their name from Rahden Castle, from where records indicate the family first ruled as Counts of Rahden before the formation of the Holy Audonian Empire.

The family rose to prominence in the years preceding the formation of the Kingdom of Garima, in which is was created Elector of Rahdenburg during the first expansion of Audonian electorates.

Kings of Sydalon

The House of Rahdenburg oft had dealings in Sydalon since the crusader kingdom's creation in the 13th century following the First Crusade. However, the family had its first marriage with the royal house through the marriage of the adventurous Albert, Count of Rahdenburg-Ansbach and Elissa, then heir apparent and Princess of Petra. Albert and Elissa had # children, the eldest of whom was Frederick of Rahdenburg-Ansbach, Duke of Diban. Albert was viewed as popular leading up to and during his wife's reign, setting the groundwork for his son Frederick to succeed Elissa II as monarch.

Frederick, Duke of Diban became the first Rahdenburg to succeed to the Petran throne on 2 May 1621. He became King of Sydalon nearly six years later on 11 June 1627, assuming Jordan VI as his regnal name. Overall, the House of Rahdenburg produced three monarchs of Sydalon for a total of 52 years: Jordan VI, Rainier II, and Melisende I. The throne later passed to the imperial Latin Aemilia dynasty through the eldest son of Melisende I and her husband Emperor Constantine XVII Aemilius. While the throne passed to the Aemilia dynasty, Jordan VI and his wife Leonore of Larache had 7 children, including 4 sons. The line of Jordan VI's eldest son Frederick later went on to become the senior line of the House of Rahdenburg with the ascension of Frederick VII as Elector. Frederick himself was Duke of Esebon prior to becoming elector, which he abdicated in favor of his electorate title.
