== Description ==
 +
The rulership of the [[Third Imperium]] has been troubled a number of times over its more than a millennium of existence. The office of the [[Emperor]] is not infallible and both good and bad rulers have assumed power. Thankfully, many of the [[Emperor]]s and Empresses have been enormously talented and capable rulers. While the office is not officially hereditary, in practice, it has often functioned best under dynastic succession.
 +
 
 +
=== Entitlement Synopsis ===
 +
Above the range of noble ranks is the '''[[Emperor]]''' and the '''[[Emperors_of_the_Third_Imperium#History & Background (Dossier)|Imperial Family]]'''. The noble family may include [[prince]]s, [[prince|princesses]], [[Emperor's Consort|dowagers]], and other noble titles.  The spouse of an [[Emperor]] or [[Emperor|Empress]] is technically the "''[[Empress Consort]]''" or "''[[Emperor Consort]]''" or "''[[Prince Consort]]''", but in common everyday usage the [[Female|females]] are simply referred to as "[[Emperor's Consort|Empress]]" but the [[Male|males]] have an issue should their title be shortened as to claim to be "[[Emperor]]" is treason! 
 +
* The '''[[Emperor]]''' is the ultimate object of thousands of oaths of loyalty and fealty.
 +
* The ''full'' proper form of address for the Emperor is: "''His Imperial Majesty <NAME>, Prime Lord of the Armed Forces, Archduke of Sylea, President of the Moot, Appellate Extraordinary,  Defender of the Marches, Emperor of the Core, the Gateway, the Marches, Vland, Ilelish, Antares, and the Rim.''" <ref>T5 Noble Patent 8.5" x 11" forms (front side)</ref> Note that the Emperor also personally holds the titles of [[Marquis]] of [[Usdiki (world)|Usdiki]] and [[Baron]] of [[Capital (world)|Sylea]].

Traveller Imperial Royal Family Sunburst logo.svg

(0 to Present): Emperors of the Third Imperium

  • The Emperor is the Supreme Ruler of the Third Imperium.
  • The following are the Emperors of the Third Imperium. See individual entries for each Emperor.
  • Please note that the appellation Emperor is a unisex (genderless) title within the Third Imperium. Although some female Emperors have still adopted the old Terran term Empress or its Vilani (language) equivalent.

Term Etymology[edit]

  • Terran Anglic origin: From Old French empereor (Modern French empereur), from Latin imperator ‎(“emperor; commander”), from imperare ‎(“to command”).
  • The Vilani term for Emperor is Karun (Anglic: Karun).
  • The Vilani term for an inheriting Prince or heir is Karand (Anglic: Karand).
  • See also: Karunargur

Description[edit]

The rulership of the Third Imperium has been troubled a number of times over its more than a millennium of existence. The office of the Emperor is not infallible and both good and bad rulers have assumed power. Thankfully, many of the Emperors and Empresses have been enormously talented and capable rulers. While the office is not officially hereditary, in practice, it has often functioned best under dynastic succession.

Entitlement Synopsis[edit]

Above the range of noble ranks is the Emperor and the Imperial Family. The noble family may include princes, princesses, dowagers, and other noble titles. The spouse of an Emperor or Empress is technically the "Empress Consort" or "Emperor Consort" or "Prince Consort", but in common everyday usage the females are simply referred to as "Empress" but the males have an issue should their title be shortened as to claim to be "Emperor" is treason!

  • The Emperor is the ultimate object of thousands of oaths of loyalty and fealty.
  • The full proper form of address for the Emperor is: "His Imperial Majesty <NAME>, Prime Lord of the Armed Forces, Archduke of Sylea, President of the Moot, Appellate Extraordinary, Defender of the Marches, Emperor of the Core, the Gateway, the Marches, Vland, Ilelish, Antares, and the Rim." [1] Note that the Emperor also personally holds the titles of Marquis of Usdiki and Baron of Sylea.

Emperors of the Third Imperium[edit]

The following individuals have ruled the Third Imperium:

Cleon I • Cleon II • Artemsus • Martin I • Martin II • Cleon III • Porfiria • Anguistus • Martin III • Martin V • Nicholle • Cleon IV • Jerome • Jaqueline I • Olav • Ramon I • Constantus • Nicolai • George • Barracks Emperors • Cleon V • Joseph • Donald • Emdiri • Catharine • Ramon II • Jaqueline II • Usuti • Marava • Ivan • Martin VI • Gustus • Arbellatra • Zhakirov • Margaret I • Paulo I • Tomutov I • Paula II • Tomutova II • Margaret II • Styryx • Gavin • Paulo III • Strephon


Imperial Dynasties[edit]

Imperial historians most commonly group the rulers of the Third Imperium into five categories:

Imperial Dynasties
# Name Type Reign Remarks
1. Zhunastu Dynasty Dynastic (0 to 54)

(244 to 245)

House Zhunastu founded the Third Imperium and was a particular powerhouse until it met its end.
  • The Zhunastus were conquerors and men of powerful will and ambition.
2. Lentuli Dynasty Dynastic (54 to 244)

(245 to 475)

House Lentuli were known as empire-builders, rulers with foresight and exquisite planning.
3. Non-dynastic Emperors Non-dynastic (475 to 606) The Non-dynastic Emperors helped to build the Third Imperium by expanding its borders.
4. Emperors of the Flag Pseudo-dynastic (606 to 622) The Emperors of the Flag were all strongmen, but they uniformly lacked any lasting power.
5. Alkhalikoi Dynasty Dynastic (629 to Present) Empress Arbellatra founded a strong dynasty and House Alkhalikoi still holds the reigns of power in 1116.
  • The Alkhalikois have led wisely and are well regarded.

Expanded Imperial Ruler Matrix[edit]

Imperial historians sometimes differ in how they count the rulers of the Third Imperium, but the following data holds general consensus:

Expanded Imperial Ruler Matrix

  • He abdicated the Empire in favor of his brilliant chancellor.
  • Later Imperial historians are discovering that he may have been far more accomplished than previously thought.

  • His Pacification Campaigns helped to build the early empire although many of those astrographic regions still harbor dissent.
4. Martin I 166-195 Lentuli Emperor Martin I bit off more than he could chew.
5. Martin II 195-244 Lentuli Emperor Martin I built the Grand Palace of Martin II, a marvel of its times.
  • He also fought the Vargr Campaigns, which were key to early Imperial expansion.
6. Cleon III 244-245 Zhunastu Emperor Cleon III was the last hope of House Zhunastu to reclaim rulership of the Imperium.

7. Porfiria 245-326 Lentuli Empress Porfiria reestablished Lentuli Dynasty and held a long, relatively stable reign.
8. Anguistus 326-365 Lentuli Emperor Anguistus was particularly known for wise rule and empire-building.
