Augusthal (Hesurian: [ˈaʊ̯gʊsta:l]; Albian Hesurian: Ougosdal; Cuthish: X) is the capital and largest city of the Mascyllary state of Aldia with a population of 1,789,426 inhabitants in 2018. It is the single largest city in Northern Mascylla as well as the fourth-largest city in Mascylla after Flussmund, Königsreh, and Lancaide. Augusthal is situated at the confluence of the minor tributary river Augus into the Elbgau, in the North Mascyllary Plain, amid a hilly landscape dominated by moraines and a large number of lakes. It is both the largest city and center of the Elbgau–Blaugold region (Elbgau-Blaugold-Gebiet), the largest polycentric metropolitan area and conurbation in Mascylla, situated in the Aldian Bight and home to some 11.9 million people.
The city was the primary and official residence of the Aldian and later Mascyllary kings from 1366 until 1793, and remained the secondary seat of the Mascyllary monarchy even after the capital was moved to Lancaide and later Königsreh.
