Konstanty von Liberium

"Though one day my mortal body may turn to dust, the Effendiş will stand strong forever." -Kontanty Amedeo von Liberium

Prince Konstanty Amedeo von Liberium is a Effendiş-Bardonian human. Although there are some who believe him to be Olthiac, Deutzani and maybe even Ryzani, however he’s primarily Effendiş-Remtali

Early Life

He was born in Deutzan, however there is no known record to where, he resided in the city of Karlsfell. Not much is none about his past but he has mentioned on occasion that his family used to work with horses and his father was Emre Polat and his mother was Lale Sakar, both were Effendiş nationalists his father was a school teacher, he himself teaching the young Konstanty the Old Esfendiş and Esfendiş-Remtali alphabet and language, something that greatly affected his views on his Effendiş identity, Karlsfell, politics, education. He and his father would often engage in arguements with his father on what the prime example of a country is supposed to look like. This would often lead to him being harshly discplined. Konstanty would enjoy horseback riding in his freetime, owning a total of 12 the names of which were, Mustafa, Kiwi, Şahin, Çetin, Iris, Atlas, Ekmekci, Peynirci, Sadik, Ferzi, Farkas, and Endre. His parents would later pass away of age when Konstanty was only 16, at the age of 17 he move to Karlsfell, where his life would forever change. His father adopted father is King Eirik Damerson Liberium, the King's men employing him as a caretaker of the Royal Calvary brigade, a job he grew quite fond of.

Military Career and Marshal of the Resistance

At the age of 17 he joined the Karlsfell military academy and notably was a star student, especially in literature (He also has many works of poetry and art) Graduating as an officer of a calvary brigade, the young Konstanty was around during the time of many changes in Karlsfellian society, the attempted coup, which many young Karlsfellian officers took part in, allegedly Konstanty also took part in the march and made orders to move his calvary brigade to occupy the city of Donklasgrad, for this he was arrested by Ryzani authorities however got out shortly after as someone bribed the authorities who arrested him to set him free. Whatever the case, the young Konstanty would be one of the founders of the KRA and the Progressive Liberal Committee, an organisatuon which sought to modernize and liberalize many policies in Ryzan, specifically in the army, rights for different ethnic peoples and in the education system. Many of these being heavily polticized in favour of the Tsarina. Konstanty seeing the mistreatment of his people by the Ryzani government as crime against human rights, initially Konstanty attempted to work with the Ryzani government via his Progressive Liberal Committee, but he would soon see little hope in this. He would play a key role in the KRA and would be promoted to lieutenant and then lieutenant-general. He allegedly was also offered by the Ryzani government the position of Field Marshall and a commander of his own army, poltical and social reform, in exchange he declare himself and join on the frontlines during the Second West March War, however already mistrusting the government, he declined this offer. His active role within the Resistance would play a key point for the future, which brought hope that traditions, cultures and the languages of Karlsfell and Remtal would be protected. He also is one of the recorders of the Karlsfell Genocide, an act committed by the Ryzani government, killing an estime of 100,000-200,000 Effendiş-Remtali’s. Which still greatly affects the Karlsfellian population, culture and hindered the language. This single act would fuel his desire for a drastic change.

The Battle of Eirik Hill

The battle of Eirik Hill was a border conflict between Ryzani-Donklasgrad and Karlsfell. It's unknown who intiated the battle but the heated tensions between both cities didn't help. The battle started when forces from Donklasgrad raised the Ryzani flag over the hill, seeing this from down low, Konstanty ordered his men stand guard whilst two detachements went behind the hill to flank, this strategy paid of tremendously, as the visibilty from the hill had been hindered due to a foggy morning. The estimated amount of casualties for the Donklasgrad forces are somewhere between 5,000 to 10,000, whilst the the Resistance Army only suffered a total of 1,200 and 800 wounded.

The Battle of the Corlu plain

The battle of the Corlu plain is considered to be Konstanty's finest victory and evidence of his superior tactics and planning. What started out as a declared border conflict of combined forces from Donklasgrad and Nebskoslavia, the invading forces did not plan their attack well, believeing that superior numbers would win with ease. However Konstanty already knew of their plans beforehand and had his troops in position, the Donklasgrad and Nebskoslavian forces had to march several miles during a hot summer day, many of these men already tired and weary, essentially the Karlsfellian forces were waiting for the tired enemy to arrive. The intial battle would last for a total of five days, both sides making little to no gains, finally when a counterattck came, the attackers were forced to retreat, this was followed by a calvary charge by the Karlsfellians which resulted in a complete slaughter of the retreating forces. It is estimated the Nebskoslavian and Donklasgrad forces suffered a total of 40,000 to 60,000 casualties. Whilst the Karlsfellain forces suffered 20,000. During the calvary charge one of Konstanty's horses; Ekmekci was severely wounded and would later die, she lays at the Tomb of Corlu.

Prince of Karlsfell

Konstanty was crowned “Prince of Karlsfell” a title he enjoys to hold and intends to uphold for his city. The young Prince mentioned in a Royal banquet once; “I cannot help but feel that Karlsfell has a bright future, and as it’s current Prince I hope to press that bright future to make it even brighter.” The Prince is also well known for his Alcohol collection and his own brewing, something he is quite proud of. He is also one of the founders of the KRA (Karlsfellian Resistance Army) and a promoter of the Effendiş culture and language.

"The Prince of the People"

The Prince is known to be very philanthropic towards the population, especially those who live in villages. On one occasion the Prince would cut off grain from his breweries to give to these villages, as in the past, the previous Tsarina was know to not hand out money or even restricted food towards these villagers simply for their ethnicity! Something that would disgust the Prince. He would go out of his way to donate his own money and give grain. Not a single villager in Effendiş-Remtal hasn’t been in a carriage ride with Prince Konstanty.

Rise to Power

Konstanty was also given most of the power over Karlsfell by his father, however his father has retained several titles, Konstanty later would secede Karlsfell from Ryzan and reunify it with Bardonia. Calling it “The best choice is reunification with our brothers.” He would also instate many reforms, these reforms all being; social, economic, and in education. He also was one of signatories of the constitution of Karlsfell, and the founder of the five points of Karlsfell. Durinh his consulship he also established the parliament of Karlsfell, creating the positions of Grand Vizier and Vizier of the Ministries, appointing Agnaria to the first and Shibuyan to the second.

Death

Konstanty would die in his sleep at the age of 37, fairly close to his 38th birthday. He lay rest at the Paşa Garden, in Deutzan.
