List of Norlandic Monarchs
|
The King of Norland is the reigning Monarch, sole Sovereign, and Head of State of the Kingdom of Norland. Established by Thoromir 'the Herald' Ruricsson Armahnk, the title can only be held by his descendants, the Rurikkid, who are elected via Kingsmoot and crowned by the High Keeper of the Red Faith. There have been instances of pretenders laying claim to the title, such as Canonius Horen, Augustus Horen, and Antonius Horen, former Emperors of Man. The Kingsmoot itself has been abolished many times by the reigning Monarch through the history of the title, most famously by King Caedric Edvardsson Ruric during his reclamation and further reformation of the Kingdom; establishing the law of primogeniture in its place. The Kingsmoot most recently was re-established by the provisional government lead by Vane Freysson after the death of King Sven II Edvardsson Ruric.
The Kingdom of Norland, and the title of King of Norland, has been reformed five times, on Vailor, Axios, and Arcas. Edvard I Thorsson Ruric formed the First Kingdom of Norland during his reign in Vailor, Sven Eiriksson Ruric formed the Second Kingdom after his Father abdicated, Artyom Eiriksson Ruric formed the Third Kingdom after the Staunton Rebellion, Torsten Rosik formed the Thrid Kingdom of Norland leading to the Third Atlas Coalition War, and Caedric Edvardsson Ruric formed the Fifth Kingdom after the Rubern War. While the Kingdom was conquered by the Empire of Man, it is not widely considered a legitimate or true incarnation of the Kingdom or the title.
