Origin of the Dukes of Marna
Emperor John I granted to his second son Prince Alexander Louis Horen the titular title of the Duke of Marna at his birth in 1522. Later grants included the Count of Westmark in 1529 for the young Duke of Marna's seventh birthday and later that of Governor of the Province of Erochland, which Alexander held until his death in 1572 at the age of 50. Frederick I of Marna would later use his descent from Alexander to legitimise his claim as the rightful successor of the Holy Orenian Empire following the Coup of Adelburg by Canonius Horen-Pertinax.
Alexander's marriage to Aurelia de Bar, daughter of Denis de Bar, 2nd Count of Peremont and great niece of Guy I, King of Oren, placed him right at the centre of Orenian aristocracy. Alexander's sons, Leopold and Philip Horen-Marna, became the most powerful nobleman in the Holy Orenian Empire, the former becoming Archchancellor of Oren under John III, Holy Orenian Emperor and later King of the Westerlands, whilst the latter became the Duke of Mardon.Kingdom of Marna
