Prince of Roseland

The Prince of Aurora is a hereditary title held by members of the Rose Family, one of the most prominent aristocratic families in Brunant that has ruled Aurora for over a century. The first holder of the title was Prince William, 1st Prince of Aurora (1861 ~ 1933), the founder of the Principality of Aurora and the patriarch of the Rose Family. The current holder of the title is Davina Rose, 5th Princess of Aurora.

History
When Aurora was founded in 1911, the newly-formed Parliament of Aurora (dissolved in 2011 due to Aurora's union with Brunant) choose a constitutional monarchy as the form of government.

The Parliament nominated Lord William H. Rose, the respected leader of the national establishment movement, as the first Prince of Aurora.

Lord Rose was formally crowned as Prince William of Aurora and swore allegiance to the Constitution at the United Church of Aurora on August 25, 1911. Prince William and his royal descendents have ruled Aurora since then for over 100 years.

In 2011, the Principality of Aurora joined the Kingdom of Brunant, becoming its 12th parish. According to the terms of the Treaty of Union, Aurora was to surrender its full sovereignty over to Congress and therefore the Rose Family was no longer the ruling dynasty of Aurora. The Rose Family, however, was allowed to keep its title as the Prince/Princess of Aurora as a honorary title.

Residence
The Rose Palace has served as the official residence for the family over the generations. It is built in in the early 20th century, and went through a large renovation in 1989.

The gardens surrounding the palace are one of the main attractions for the tourists that visit the palace each year. The gardens have been established in stages since the palace was built, resulting in different styles of parks and gardens.
