Skycity of Bhujerba
From Final Fantasy Wiki
The Skycity of Bhujerba (空中都市ビュエルバ Kūchū Toshi Byueruba) is a location in the land of Ivalice in Final Fantasy XII. A floating city, it tries to maintain neutrality at all times, but recent events have forced its residents to ally with Archadia.

[edit] Profile
- See also: Sage Knowledge 53-78#SK 53: Bhujerba.
Bhujerba is located in the Sky Continent of Dorstonis, above the Naldoan Sea. A floating city-state, Bhujerba thrives solely on the export of magicite mined in the nearby Lhusu Mines. Originally founded by Moogles, who were the first pioneers of airship travel, Bhujerba became an airship docking port and expeditions discovered more magicite mines, increasing Bhujerba's revenue. During the age of the Galtean Alliance, House Ondore took over the administration and initiated a system to control the magicite mining activities; by closing exhausted mines to let the magicites recover and opening new mines elsewhere. This guarantees continuous production of magicite. It is rumored that should the magicite supply be exhausted, Bhujerba and the rest of the Sky Continent would descend to the surface; these rumors are yet to be proven true.
[edit] Politics
Ruled by Marquis Halim Ondore IV, Bhujerba tries to maintain its neutrality amongst all nations. It was even the mediator between Archadia and Dalmasca when they signed their peace treaty. However, they have recently entered into a formal alliance with Archadia, although the Archadians have no real power over Bhujerba. In reality, though, Bhujerba has allied with the resistance, in hopes of bringing down the Archadian Empire.
[edit] Dialect
The people of Bhujerba speak with an accent similar to "Indian English". Many of their terms are actual words from the actual Sanskrit language. The most common word is Bhadra, which is a formal address, not unlike the English use of Sir/Madam or Mr/Ms/Mrs. The dialect is also seen, when approaching the guides of the city, as they will have the title of Parijanah, which fittingly means "guide".
Other Bhujerban words:
- Amba - Mother
- Bhadra - Good
- Hanta - Great!
- Kah - Who
- Kastam - Alas
- Madhu - A wine beverage, is Honey in Sanskrit
- Murkha - Fool
- Parijanah - Guide
- Raksas - Monster
- Sainikah - Soldier
- Svagatam - Welcome

[edit] Notes
- The Bhujerban Madhu quest takes place here. It is possible to find casks of the drink and give it to some miners near the mine entrance in exchange for far more gil than what selling it would yield.
