The Monarchy Of Pythos

The Pythoan Civil War was fought for 12 years before being won by the 1st Holy Emperor Of Pythos.  The Holy Emperor fought from the age of 25 until the age of 37, at which time the war was won and the city-states were unified into one Holy Empire under his leadership.  He proclaimed himself the 1st Holy Emperor and announced the founding of the Pythos Empire.

This marks the unification of the city states and the beginning of The Pythos Empire.

Reigned for 148 years, from the age of 44 to the age of 192.    His rule focused mainly on defense and establishing trade routes.

Reigned for only 47 years, from the age of 41 to the age of 88.    His rule focused mainly on luxuries, decadence, and pleasures.  He had no interest in maintaining the infrastructure or in religion, and let the military lapse.  He and his officials were cruel, sadistic, arrogant, and overconfident.  Corruption was rampant and flowed throughout all levels of authority.    Eventually he was assassinated by his 5 daughters.

Reigned for only 53 years, from the age of 25 to the age of 78.    She took control of the empire as the Holy Empress after she assassinated her father, the 3rd Holy Emperor of Pythos.    Her rule focused on trying to rebuild the military and fix the political corruption that permeated the empire.  While she was moderately successful as a leader, she searched in vain for the secret to life extension that the first two emperors enjoyed.

Reigned for only 43 years, from the age of 32 to the age of 75.    His rule mainly focused on extending the gains made by his mother, the Holy Empress.  He was able to strengthen the military, create trade goods and routes, as well as reconsolidating the empire under one religion once again.   He was often in poor health and considered sickly by most.  His pursuit of rediscovering his ancestors secret to long life could be considered a moderate success, as most people with his sickly nature would have died decades earlier.

His reign has lasted for 17 years so far, from the age of 19 to his current age of 36.    His rule so far has mainly focused on expanding the military and defense, strengthening the empire's religion and improving the infrastructure of the city-states.
