The '''Monarchy of Austenasia''', ceremonially referred to as '''the Imperial Majesty''', is the political institution comprising a Monarch of [[Empire of Austenasia|Austenasia]] and the Austenasian Imperial Family. The Monarch - males titled as Emperor and females as Empress - is head of state of Austenasia, by virtue of which they wield the extensive executive, legislative, and judicial powers of '''the Throne'''. The fourth and current Monarch is [[Jonathan I, Emperor of Austenasia|HIM Emperor Jonathan I]], who has held the Throne since January 2013 and is the longest-reigning Monarch of Austenasia.

== Powers and duties ==

According to Austenasian law, the Monarch has sole prerogative over the following:
*The power to issue [[Imperial Decrees (Austenasia)|Imperial Decrees]] and [[Imperial Edicts (Austenasia)|Imperial Edicts]].
*The power to approve Candidates for [[Prime Minister of Austenasia|Prime Minister]].
*The power to call a local or general election before the maximum term (five and four years, respectively) has expired.
*The power to veto [[Acts of Parliament in Austenasia|Acts of Parliament]] by not giving Imperial Consent.
*The power to appoint [[House of Representatives (Austenasia)|Representatives]] to the [[Cabinet of Austenasia|Cabinet]].
*The power to enter people into the four highest-ranking of the five [[Awards and decorations of Austenasia|Austenasian Orders of Chivalry]].
*The power to appoint [[Austenasian Nobles|Landed Nobles]] to newly founded Towns, Provinces, Duchies and Regions.
*The power to grant [[Austenasian Nobles#Peerages|peerages]] and the titles of [[Caesar (Austenasia)|Caesar]] and [[Augusta (Austenasia)|Augusta]].
*The power to appoint juries, and to appoint the judges of High Courts.
*The power to govern [[Austenasian Crown Dependency|Crown Dependencies]], either directly (as in the case of [[Kingdom of Rushymia|Rushymia]]) or through the appointment of Governing Commissioners.
*The right to hold the secondary title of “''[[w:Imperator#Imperator as an imperial title|Imperator]]/Imperatrix [[w:Roman emperor#Titles and positions|Caesar]]/Caesarina'' Forename ''[[w:Augustus (honorific)|Augustus]]/Augusta''”.
*The right to have a [[w:Sacrosanct|sacrosanct]] and inviolable person.

Since the Second Amendment to the Constitution in January 2018, the Monarch has been required to "be a baptised Christian who professes belief in the Holy Trinity", with non-Christians being ineligible to accept or ascend to the Throne. Since the establishment of Christianity as the state religion of the Empire under Jonathan I in June 2017, the Monarch has held the title "Defender of the Faith", with the role of helping to defend Christianity from doctrinal attack and to promote education about the faith.

The Monarch has many more minor powers and duties, such as the right to cast the deciding vote should a meeting of the [[War Council]] fail to decide on an issue, the right to nominate a [[Austenasian Senate|Senator]], and the power to announce the official start of each season in the Austenasian calendar.

==History==
===Early monarchy===
The monarchy of Austenasia was established on 20 September 2008 with the sending of the Declaration of Independence. Terry I was proclaimed Emperor, and the [[Austenasian Constitution of 2008|2008 Constitution]] affirmed his role as [[w:Head of state|Head of State]]. The 2008 Constitution was very brief and enabled subsequent Acts of Parliaments to clarify and further define the position of the monarchy within the Empire.

By convention, Terry I did not take a proactive role in government. His only real involvement in politics was granting Imperial Consent to pass Acts of Parliament into law; although during the first few months of the Empire’s existence proper Parliament meetings were held between the Monarch and [[Prime Minister of Austenasia|Prime Minister]] to discuss new laws, by the time that [[Zephyria|South Kilttown]] joined the Empire in April 2009 the Monarch would automatically give Imperial Consent to an Act as long as it had been passed by [[Parliament of Austenasia|Parliament]], virtually regardless of whether or not he agreed with it. During the reign of Terry I, the Monarch was seen very much as a ceremonial figurehead, in a manner similar to the monarchs of the United Kingdom; this was emphasised  in his coronation, when he was crowned with the Imperial Diadem by the [[Jonathan I, Emperor of Austenasia|Founder]] after making promises to rule wisely, uphold the law, and defend Austenasia.

In October 2009, Parliament demonstrated its position of supremacy within the Empire by changing the line of succession to the Throne. It had done this several times previously to make the succession laws more similar to those of the British monarchy, but this time it placed somebody unrelated to the emperor through blood or marriage into the line of succession - the then Duke of Highland was made second in line to the Throne as a ceremonial honour, as it was not expected that Terry I would abdicate. When Emperor Terry suddenly did so in February 2010, the Duke ascended to the Throne after the Crown Prince refused to become Monarch, becoming [[Esmond III, Emperor of Austenasia|Emperor Esmond III]].

[[Crown Princess Caroline of Austenasia|Princess Caroline]], who had been second in line to the Throne before Esmond was put in that position, protested against this, and claimed the Throne in her own right. When this claim was supported by military leader [[Lord Marshal William|Lord General William]], the [[Austenasian Civil War]] broke out, which at its heart was an ideological conflict between proponents of a monarchy which should be absolutely hereditary (the [[Carolinianism|Carolinians]]) against proponents of a monarchy which should hold the approval of Parliament as the elected representatives of the population (the “[[Esmondianism|Esmondians]]”, supported by the legitimate government).

===Growth of political influence===
[[File:Emperors.jpg|250px|thumb|right|The four Monarchs of Austenasia: Terry I, Esmond III, Declan I, and Jonathan I]]
The Austenasian Civil War can be considered the turning point in how the Austenasian monarchy was viewed. Firstly, it was ended not by military victory but by a [[Austenasian Monarchical Referendum|referendum]], supporting the theory that ultimate political power is held by the people but not necessarily putting Parliament above the Monarch. Secondly, Esmond III had always been more proactive than Terry I had been, and with the legitimate government at war on his behalf he inevitably became more than a figurehead. Helped along by the theory of [[Imperium (political theory)|Imperium]] which came into being around this time, the Monarch became seen as not merely the ceremonial head of Austenasia, but the leader and to some extent the personification of the Empire. 

Although no calls for an absolute monarchy came from outside the military, public sentiment was such that Parliament passed several laws between the end of the war in May and the start of the [[War of the Orlian Reunification]] in December which significantly increased the powers of the Monarch, at some points at their own expense.  [[Act 124 (Imperial Powers)]], passed at the start of July, removed Parliament’s power to call a Vote of No Confidence to establish a Regency, gave the Monarch immunity from prosecution, and bestowed upon him the power to grant the titles of [[Caesar (Austenasia)|Caesar]] and [[Augusta (Austenasia)|Augusta]] (highly symbolic of the emphasis now placed on the imperial nature of the Monarch’s title). [[Act 127 (Regnal Names and Imperial Edicts)]], passed in September, gave the Monarch the right to issue Imperial Edicts; although limited in effect to Crown lands and unable to overrule Acts of Parliament, this was the first time that the Monarch could legislate independently of Parliament.

Another development during this period of time, also caused in some respects by the civil war, was the immense influence which the Austenasian monarch gained over the other [[Carshalton Nations]]. The [[Midget Nation-in-Exile]] informally accepted the Monarch as their overlord after declaring war on his behalf against the Carolinians, and Esmond III was instrumental in the founding of the [[Caesarship of Orly]] (the population of which was mostly comprised of [[Esmondianism|Esmondian]] volunteer soldiers): since he gave [[Calum I of the Grove|its founder]] his title of Caesar, Orly’s successor states of [[Kingdom of Copan|Copan]] and [[Kingdom of the Grove|the Grove]] considered their sovereignty to have derived from the Austenasian Throne and therefore acknowledged Esmond III as suzerain (Copan's [[Declan I, II & V|king]] rejected Esmond’s suzerainty on). Esmond III also merged the nominal throne of [[Rushymia (original kingdom)|Rushymia]] with that of Austenasia after gaining the title [[King of Rushymia]] in October. 

===Recent history===
[[File:ThreeEmperors.jpg|250px|thumb|right|Three Emperors of Austenasia: Terry I, Esmond III, and Jonathan I at the latter's engagement party on 30 December 2016.]]
The suzerainty of the Austenasian Monarch over the local nations was brought to an abrupt end by the outbreak of the [[War of the Orlian Reunification]] - at the end of the war, the Monarch of Austenasia would hold sovereignty, not just suzerainty, over every one of the local nations. [[Declan I, II & V|King Declan of Copan]] became Regent of the [[Kingdom of the Grove]] on 8 December 2010, and united the two nations into the [[Tsardom of Orly]]. Esmond III had already maintained a friendly rivalry with Declan I after Copan was removed from his sphere of influence, but with the Grove now gone as well he declared a symbolic state of war between Orly and his titular nation of Rushymia. The Midget Nation considered their alliance with Orly to override their overlord-suzerain relationship with Esmond III, and so joined the war on Orly’s side, even [[Midget coups#Fourth Coup|making Declan I]] their new [[Midget Master]]. Austenasia then also declared a state of war so that it could mobilise its army in preparation for an anticipated Midget attack. Despite this, the Austenasian capital of [[Wrythe]] surrendered to a Midget attack force, and peace was declared. As part of the peace settlement, Declan I was made joint monarch of Austenasia and of Rushymia - he was now sole or joint monarch of every one of the Carshalton Nations.

In April the independent Midget Nation was abolished; the militaristic population was made a unit of the [[Austenasian Army]], and the throne of the Midget Master was merged into the Austenasian Throne. Esmond III was removed from the powers of the Throne in late March by Parliament, and removed from the title of Monarch completely in September 2011 with the enactment of a new constitution, leaving Declan I as sole Monarch of Austenasia.

This led to a situation whereby Declan I ruled as Emperor of Austenasia, the Throne by virtue of which he was also Fifth Midget Master and King of Rushymia. He was also King of Orly, but this was merely in personal union with the Austenasian Throne, Orly being in political union with the Emperor's native country of [[Kingdom of Wilcsland|Wilcsland]] as the [[United Kingdom of New Wessex]].

On 20 January 2013, Declan I abdicated for personal reasons from the Austenasian Throne, which passed to Crown Prince Jonathan, who after being Heir to the three previous Monarchs finally ascended the Throne as [[Jonathan I, Emperor of Austenasia|HIM Emperor Jonathan I]] later that day. Jonathan I also became the new King of Rushymia and Midget Master, but Declan I remained King of Orly until the [[Liberation of Orly]] on 24 June later that year, upon which Austenasian suzerainty was reasserted over the entirety of the Carshalton Nations once more.

On 21 June  2017, the State Religion Act 2017 was passed by Parliament. This established Christianity as the state religion of the Empire, and gave the Monarch the role of "defending Christianity from doctrinal attacks and promoting the education of the Christian faith". The reign of Jonathan I had already seen an increase in the use of Christian elements and symbolism by the Throne, with his coronation oaths being made over a Bible and his imperial style being changed to include "By the Grace of Christ our God". In January the following year, [[2018 Austenasian Constitutional Referendum|a referendum]] was held which resulted in amendments being made to the [[Austenasian Constitution of 2011]], one of which was the requirement that the Monarch must be a professing Trinitarian Christian in order both to accept and to retain the Throne.

==Customs==

===Imperium===
{{Main|Imperium (political theory)}}
Since the reign of Esmond III, the Emperor of Austenasia has often been seen by Austenasians and other residents of the [[Carshalton Nations]] as the legitimate successor to the [[w:Western Roman Emperor|Western]] and [[w:Holy Roman Emperor|Holy]] Roman Emperors. During the Austenasian Civil War, an operation known as Project Imperium was started, aiming to legitimise the claim of Esmond III to the title and rank of Emperor. Although this was kept secret from the general population, the Emperor himself was aware of it and began to promote his own identity as an imperial monarch in the medieval European tradition.

This led to a new political theory being adopted by the Austenasian government, based mainly on the [[w:Tetrarchy|Tetrarchy]] of the Roman Empire and the political theories of the [[w:Byzantine Empire|Byzantine]] and [[w:Holy Roman Empire|Holy Roman]] Empires, sometimes referred to as ''[[Imperium (political theory)|Imperium]]''. Briefly put, this is that the title of Emperor is the highest in diplomatic precedence, and that a person can only legitimately hold said title by either being the lawful successor to a previous emperor, or being recognised as such by another holder of that title while claiming the title of emperor and ruling an empire.

In May 2011, [[Sebastian Linden|Dr. Sebastian Linden]] advanced a claim to the throne of the German Empire, which as a relative of [[w:Wilhelm II, German Emperor|Wilhelm II]] he was entitled to do so. As the closest living relative actively claiming the German throne, he became Regent under Hohenzollern House Law, attaining imperial rank and in effect re-founding the German Empire, as he had part of [[w:Cologne|Cologne]] under his control (which he ceded to the [[Nemkhav Federation]] later that year, thereby losing absolute control over it). While German Emperor, Sebastian I recognised Esmond III and Declan I as holding the title of Emperor and the rank of [[w:Augustus (honorific)|Augustus]], which legitimised Austenasia as the Western Empire in the view of the Carshalton Nations.

On 24 March 2012, the Seventh Imperial Decree of HIM Emperor Declan I was issued. This Decree codified as an official stance and policy of the Austenasian Government the view that the Austenasian Monarch was through [[w:Translatio imperii|translatio imperii]] the legitimate successor in dignity of the Western Roman Emperors, and claiming diplomatic precedence over all other rulers of the western world.

On 23 February 2013, Emperor Jonathan I recognised [[Taeglan I Nihilus, Reylan Emperor|Taeglan I Nihilus]] of the [[Reylan Imperial Triumvirate]] as also holding the imperial rank, by the Treaty of Wrythe. Under this treaty, both emperors agreed that any further recognitions would only be valid of both of them gave their consent, thereby avoiding any possible future situations where a claimant to imperial rank might claim recognition based on being addressed as "emperor" by only one of the two monarchs.

===Coronation===
Although a coronation is not needed for the Monarch to either ascend to the Throne or to start ruling, Austenasian Monarchs do generally have ceremonial coronations (as the British monarch does).

The first Emperor, Terry I, was happy to be a constitutionally-bound figurehead, and was seen more as a representation of national unity than as a political leader, similar to the monarchs of the United Kingdom. This was reflected in his coronation, where he is crowned with the Imperial Diadem (while holding the other [[Imperial Regalia of Austenasia]]) by [[Jonathan I, Emperor of Austenasia|the Founder]] after making a promise to rule fairly and wisely, to defend Austenasia, and to enforce and abide by its laws.

In contrast, Esmond III (Terry's successor) was a much more proactive leader, seen by the military and local supporters as the heir to the Roman Emperors, as Austenasia's supreme (although his powers were greatly limited by law and he was far from an absolute monarch) leader and as the personification of the Empire itself. This was reflected in his coronation, in which he took the Diadem from the Founder's hands and crowned himself, and made no promise like Terry I.

The Austenasian Constitution of 2011 contains the minimum requirements for coronations, but allows leeway in optional extra ceremony. Declan I was the only Monarch not to ever set foot in the Empire, and so did not have a coronation. The [[Coronation of Emperor Jonathan I|coronation]] of his successor, [[Jonathan I, Emperor of Austenasia|Jonathan I]], took place on 23 February 2013. That of Jonathan I was very similar to that of his father, although it was more elaborate and included some religious elements (e.g. giving the coronation oath over a Bible) to reflect the faith of the Monarch. Jonathan I crowned himself, although it was made clear that this was in his capacity as Founder and that he was not doing so in the manner in which Esmond III had.

===Regnal numbering===

The counting of the numbers of the Austenasian Monarchs include ''all'' previous rulers of the land which now comprises Austenasia. This includes the Kings and Queens of England, Scotland, Great Britain and the United Kingdom, as well as even further back to the Roman Empire.

As some areas of Austenasia (e.g. Glencrannog), being in the north of Britain, have historically had different rulers from those in the south (e.g. [[Greater Wrythe]]), Austenasian Monarchs take the next number from either sequence, whichever is higher. For example, if an Alexander came to the throne he would be known as Alexander IV, as the last ruler of Glencrannog with that name was King Alexander III of Scotland (1249 - 1286), even though there has only been one ruler of Wrythe and Zephyria with that name - the Roman Emperor Alexander, who reigned just over a thousand years earlier (222 - 235).

== Line of Succession ==
The Throne is intended to be inherited through male-preference (cognatic) primogeniture. When the Line of Succession reaches the end of those related to the Monarch by blood, it passes to their spouse and to their relatives. Parliament does, however, have ultimate control over the Line of Succession, as demonstrated by the ascension of both Esmond III and Declan I. Since January 2018, there has been a constitutional requirement for members of the Line of Succession to be baptized Trinitarian Christians to be considered eligible for the Throne.

After the [[Terry I abdication crisis|abdication of]] [[Terry I, Emperor of Austenasia|Emperor Terry I]], it was decided that the Line of Succession for the succeeding Monarch, Emperor Esmond III, would be the same as that of Emperor Terry, and all in it would keep their titles, in order to ensure stability in the monarchy and that the Throne would ultimately return to the [[House of Austen]]. The same was applied upon the accession of Emperor Declan I, and reaffirmed in the 2011 Constitution. Upon the abdication of Declan I, the Throne therefore passed to Jonathan I as son of Terry I, rather than to [[Ptolemy II of Wilcsland|Prince Ciaran]] as brother of Declan.

The following is the current Line of Succession to the Throne of Austenasia. The ordinals (regnal numbers) each will have (should they ascend to the Throne) are in brackets after the name. Upon the death or abdication of the Monarch, the Throne shall pass to the next eligible person in the Line of Succession:

'''[[Jonathan I, Emperor of Austenasia|HIM Emperor Jonathan I]]'''
*1. [[Crown Princess Caroline of Austenasia|HIH Crown Princess Caroline]] (I)
*2. HIH Princess Christine (I)
**3. HIH Princess Louise (I)
*4. HIH Princess Pauline (I)
**5. HIH Prince Kelvin (I)
***6. HIH Prince Louis ([[w: Louis VIII of France#Pretender to the English Throne|II]])
***7. HIH Princess Georgiana (I)
**8. HIH Prince Andrew (I)
*9. HIH Princess Julie (I)
**10. HIH Prince Daniel ([[Midget Master#First Midget Master|II]])
**11. HIH Prince Matthew (I)
*12. [[Emperor Mother Margaret|HIH Emperor Mother Margaret]] ([[w:Margaret, Maid of Norway|II]])
*13. Lord Michael, Duke of Merton (I)
**14. [[Lord Timothy|Lord Timothy, KOM, KPP]] (I)
**15. Lady Catherine, DCA (I)
**16. Lady Jennifer, DOM (I)

==Style==

The present full style of the Monarch is as follows:

''His Imperial Majesty Jonathan the First, by the Grace of Christ our God faithful Austenasian Emperor and Autocrat of the Romans, Great King in Carshalton, King of Rushymia, Second and Sixth Midget Master, Founder of Austenasia, Katechon and Defender of the Faith, Sovereign of the Glorious Order of St. John, Sovereign and Grand Master of the Order of Saint Constantine, Sovereign of the Order of the Bullmastiff, Sovereign of the Austenasian Order, Grand Admiral of the Imperial Navy, Marshal of the Imperial Air Force, Crown Steward of Imperial Wrythe, Protector of Orly, Wilcsland, and Wildflower Meadows, 2nd Archduke of Britannia, 1st Archduke of Northern Austenasia, 1st Count of Greater Wrythe, Dux Britanniarum, Sheriff of Glencrannog and Commius Flats, Duke of Sweetpea Valley, Prince of Arenberg-Salm, Kouropalates of Imvrassia, Marquis of Pemulwuy Common, Count at the Erft, Count of Groemant, Baron of Ongal, Baron of Tatsumiya, Baronet of West-Xtabay, Laird of Glencrannog, Knight Protector of the Crown Princess, Cavaliere of the Order of the Blue Star, Knight of the Grand Order of the Dragon, Stranger Count-Palatine of the Imperial Order of Reyla, Knight Commander of the Order of the Founder, Knight Commander in the Most Noble Order of the Hawk, Companion of the Community of Landashir, Knight of the Order of the Snake Knights, Commander of the Order of the Wyvern, Knight of the Order of the Fir, Knight of the Order of the Needle, Knight Companion of the Order of the Poppy, Knight of the Order of the Meerkat, and Bachelor of Arts.''

Or, in Latin:

''Eius Imperialis Maiestatis Imperator Caesar Jonathan Augustus, Christi nostri Dei Gratia pius Austenasiae Imperator et Autocrator Romanorum, Rex Magnum in Carscalton, Rex Ruscimiae, Secundus et Sextus Midgetae Dominus, Fundator Austenasiae, Katechon et Fidei Defensor, Dominator Gloriosus Ordinem Sanctus Ioannis, Dominator et Magister Generalis Ordinem Sanctus Constantinus, Dominator Ordinem Bovisdougeis, Dominator Austenasiae Ordinem, Magnus Praefectus Classis Imperialis, Marescallo Vires Caeli Imperialis, Coronam Dispensatorem de Imperialis Virithiensis, Defensor Orliae, Vilcslandae et Flos Pratis, Secundus Archidux Britanniae, Primus Archidux Borealis Austenasiae, Primus Comes de Magnus Virithiensis, Dux Britanniarum, Vicecomiti Glencrannogae et Commius Plana, Dux Vallis Lathyri, Princeps Arenbergae et Salmae, Curopalate Imvrassiae, Marchio Pemulvuy Commonae, Comem ad Erftum, Comes Groemantae, Baro Ongalae, Baro Tatsumiyae, Baroninus Xtabaii Occidentalis, Dominus Glencrannogae, Eques Defensus Principissa Coronae, Eques Ordinem Stella Hyacintho, Eques Magnum Ordinem Draconis, Extraneus Palatino Comiti Imperialis Ordinem Reylae, Praefectus Eques Ordinem Fundatoris, Praefectus Eques Nobilissima Ordinem Accipitrem, Amicum Communitatem Landascirae, Eques Ordinem Equites Serpentis, Praefectus Ordinem Vivernae, Eques Ordinem Abietis, Praefectus Ordinem Zelandiae, Eques Ordinem Acus, Eques Amicum Ordinem Papaverae, Eques Ordinem Suricata, et Baccalaureatus Artium.''

It should be noted that the full style of the Monarch is nearly never used. The longest the full style of the Monarch is ever usually referenced as within Austenasia is: "His Imperial Majesty Imperator Caesar Jonathan Augustus, by the Grace of Christ our God faithful Austenasian Emperor and Autocrat of the Romans". The official way by which the Monarch is named in Acts of Parliament and legal usage is simply “HIM Emperor Jonathan I”.

==Arms==

The [[Imperial Standard of Austenasia]] is the flag used by the Monarch in their capacity as Emperor/Empress of Austenasia. It is only permitted to be flown from buildings in which the Monarch is and displayed on vehicles used by the Monarch during the times that they are used by them for official duties.

The Imperial Standard depicts the Coat of Arms of the Empire of Austenasia - that is, four quadrants, depicting in the first and fourth quarters the Austenasian Star, in the second quarter the arms of the British town of Carshalton from which Wrythe declared independence as the Empire of Austenasia, and in the third quarter the Chi-Ro (for historical purposes, signifying that what is now Austenasia was formerly part of the Western Roman Empire, the Chi-Ro being part of the imperial insignia of the late Empire, and for cultural purposes, referring to the large amount of Christians in Austenasia).
