Konstanty von Liberium

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

Prince Konstanty Amedeo von Liberium is a Effendiş-Olthiac 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, in the port city Haegiel, he resided in the city of Karlsfell. His father is King Eirik Damerson Liberium, his mother is Queen Miya Liberium. He spent most his early teens in Haegiel and studying and reading, he would later move to Karlsfell and learn equestrian arts. He would invest most of his time in arts, including traveling, writing and ink painting. He would return to Haegiel to attend the Deutzani University of Art. He would also travel, particulary to Bardonia, Askonia and Lorent. at the age of 17 he would also attend the Carthya Military Academy and then transfer to the Deutzani Military Academy, where he would graduate as a Lieutenant. He would then attend the Equestrian Academy of Karlsfell to study calvary tactics but laregly to work with horses, something he is passionate about. But also to interact with his people.

Serafina

Konstanty taught Serafina Balkiz horseback riding at the Equestrian Academy of Karlsfell. The two would get along quite well and would later date. In one conversation Serafina asked Konstanty "Why is it that you do this? Why did you choose the military?" Konstanty responded with "I chose to teach you to see your smile, and I chose the military to protect that smile." Shortly after the two would begin dating. And it may have all been for that one answer.

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,(Konstanty was opposed to the change in leadership in Remtal of "Auggy the pretender".) 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 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.

Marriage, children and the Heir to the throne

Konsatnty would later propose and then marry Serafina, they would be married at their private residence and Konstanty would call it "The happiest day of his life." The Priest at their wedding was Jun Khamen Al-Qamiya. They would have three children; Theodoros, whom is the heir to the Liberium throne, and his two daughters Zofia and Eliška.

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 join with Bardonia. Calling it “We seek safety until this storm is over.” 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.

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. His wife would later be buried next to him
