Arstan VI

Arstan VI (23 May 3996 – 4 June 4080) was the last Emperor of Alfegria. His official title was Emperor Arstan VI, Absolute Leader of Alfegria and Head Protector of the Congress.

Arstan VI ruled from 21 February 4033 until his forced abdication on 3 July 4061. During his reign, Alfegria went from a semi-constitutional monarchy with an important Congress to an absolute monarchy with Congress having barely to no representation, similar to that of an authoritarian dictatorship. Political enemies nicknamed him Arstan the Soulless Bastard because of his multiple human rights abuses, and due to his percieved illegitimacy.

Under his rule, Alfegria decisively won the Coalition War against a majority of allied nations vying to end the absolute monarchy, albeit resulting in the absolute destruction of the Alfegrian Royal Navy during the Battle of the Woodrin Strait. After enacting multiple laws banning any major political opposition following the collapse of the Occidental monarchy to Communist rebels in the mid-4050s, the Alfegrian Revolutionary War erupted between the monarchy and Communist rebels under the leadership of Thaddeus Turner. Arstan eventually abdicated in M'aztila in July 4061, and was exiled to a small village in southern Alfegria where he died in 4080.
