'''Brantavilla''' is the capital and the most populous city in [[Anserisa (Pacifica)|Anserisa]]. Founded in 1059 as ''Commissuram'', it is presently named after [[Branta Island (Pacifica)|Branta Island]]. The city is centred on the southern part of the island.

It is estimated that the city has a population of 206,709. [[Anserisan language (Pacifica)|Anserisan]] is the city's official language, although there is a widespread use of [[Austral language (Pacifica)|Austral]] in private signage. [[New Anserisan language (Pacifica)|New Anserisan]] is a ''de facto'' official language with many of the official documents being accessible in New Anserisan. It is the city where New Anserisan is the most populous with around 18.3% of the population speaking the language at home.

The city officially became the capital of the [[County of Castorida (Pacifica)|County of Castorida]] in 1205 and was renamed ''Brantasticus''. It gained even more importance after the signature of the [[History of Anserisa (Pacifica)|Treaty of Envoys]] which established the seat of the Council of Envoys (present-day [[Council of Regions of Anserisa (Pacifica)|Council of Regions]]) in the city. The city lost its capital status from 1436 to 1443, following the invasion of [[List of leaders of Anserisa (Pacifica)|Count Césario of Galluso]] and the creation of the [[Union of the Three Northern Isles (Pacifica)|Union of the Three Northern Isles]] which  established its capital in [[Vexilla, Anserisa (Pacifica)|Vexilla]]. It has been the continuous capital of Anserisa since 1443.

Brantavilla is home to the Brantavilla Cricket Club, the most successful sports team in Anserisa with 24 championships in the [[Anserisan 50 League (Pacifica)|Anserisan 50 League]] and is home of the football team Brantavilla FC, the franchise with the most [[Anserisan Football League (Pacifica)|Princio-Stéphano I Trophy]] wins.

==Etymology==
