George, King of Wiltshire: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 20:19, 20 April 2024

George (Louis George; born 15 March 3001) is King of Wiltshire. He was appointed King of Wiltshire, alongside his wife, Victoria, following the end of the Wiltshire Civil War and the establishment of the Kingdom of Wiltshire in 3024. George is also the heir apparent to the Iberian Throne of the Balancín Kingdoms. He also holds the title 'Prince of the Newton'.

Born as the eldest son of King Maximilian II and Queen Elizabeth, George became royalty when his father acceded to the Iberian Throne as King. In August 3023, he was created as the first Prince of the Newton to mark the independence of the Newton from the Wiltshire Republic.

George's birth name, Louis, was how he was styled before becoming King of Wiltshire. During his childhood, he was not regarded as future royalty. Through his early life, he resided as a private citizen. In 3013, Louis moved to Balancía with his father to reside alongside the Balancín royal family where he attended school. In 3021, his father was named Duke of Sinacras by Queen Mary, making him the heir apparent of the Duchy of Sinacras. Upon his father's ascension to the throne in 3022, Louis became the Duke of Talaga, the historic title of the heir to the throne. Louis attended Pembroke University, being matriculated in 3019 to study Art History (BA) and graduating with a Third Class degree in June 3022.

In 3023, Louis married the Crown Princess of Lancastria, Victoria, formally uniting the Houses of Murcia and Labrador in marriage. Upon his expected ascension to the Balancín throne, Victoria will become Queen Consort. Vice versa, upon her ascension to the throne of Lancastria, Louis will become King Consort.

Reign in Wiltshire

Upon the conclusion of the Wiltshire Civil War, a Balancín victory seemed all but certain. The Papal Bull, Successione Et Ascensione, designated Wiltshire to be under the domain of the Balancín Crown and King Maximilian II began to make plans for the annexation of Wiltshire into the Balancín Kingdoms. Fearing resentment from the resident secular population, and being unsure if the citizens south of Shipley would convert as easily as Shipley/Newton did, King Maximilian entered into negotiations with the Lancastrian government (a third party that had been keenly interested in securing peace in Wiltshire). With the help of the Lancastrians, King Maximilian was able to create a separate client state in Wiltshire (the Kingdom of Wiltshire), which would have democratic autonomy of domestic policy, with Balancín control of foreign and military matters. The Treaty of Forêtnoire solidified this settlement.

The Monarchy of Wiltshire Act 3024 officially transferred the title "King of Wiltshire" from Maximilian II to his son and heir, Louis, as well as Louis's wife, Victoria. Upon his accession, Louis chose to govern by his second name, George. He was invested as King George, becoming King of Wiltshire.

His first act as King, made alongside his wife, the new Queen Victoria, was to call for democratic elections for the Assembly of Wiltshire.
