Alexander I (born Liam Alexander, 5 April 2005) is the King of Atiera and former High King of Mediolaurentia. Most notable for the foundation of both iterations of the Kingdom and Empire of Atiera, Alexander continues his reign as King of Atiera and inaugural High King of Mediolaurentia.
Outside of Mediolaurentia and Atiera, he has made several other contributions within the micronational community, such as heading the ministry of external affairs in Vishwamitra, serving as the prime minister of Oskonia, and as the inaugeral First Minister of Pacem
Micronational career
Early career
In early 2019, Alexander and his friends founded a simulationist nation known as the Democratic Republic of Cobra where he served as the Secretary of state until its dissolution later in the year. He and his friends proclaimed Cameron Cezar, former micronationalist and co-founder of Cobra, as the nation's King.
After the dissolution of the Democratic Republic of Cobra, Alexander went on to found two other unsuccessful nation-projects before founding Atiera. These nations were known respectively as the Democratic Republic of Patheum and the Kingdom of Limconia, both of which had little to no government structure and any real-life elements, making them both simulationist states.
Later in 2019, Alexander first discovered "true" micronationalism, a form of micronationalism which he describes as "serious and legitimate" when he heard about Arkovia. During the time he held citizenship in Arkovia, he was a member of the Genisis council and former Prime Executive Minister of the Foreign Intelligence Service Enhanced Government Institution. Alexander has also been involved in a scandal of Arkovian documents being leaked from the EGI he was in charge of. He was also a minister within Promatia, after the name change of Arkovia, until informally renouncing his citizenship later in the year.
Alexander was also active within the Empire of Pacem, which he discovered while browsing Reddit on holiday with his family. He later was recruited as a journalist for the Quo Times. Later, he left and rejoined sometime in early 2020 where he served as a senator and the nation's First Minister. To this day, Alexander proudly states that the Empire of Pacem played a major role in the development of his micronational career.[1][2]
Kingdom of Atiera
On 30 May 2020, Munroe founded his latest and most successful nation, the Kingdom of Atiera, where he was the first monarch, reigning as Emperor of Atiera since 30 May 2020 and King of Atiera since 10 August 2020 until the nation's dissolution. He served as the Head of State and subsequently, Commander-in-Chief of the Atieran Defense Force. He was also the King of Galte, the only colony of Atiera.[3]
Alexander suddenly left every micronational Discord server he had been in and removed all micronational friends (except Michael, Prince of Galte) from his Discord friends list on 21 June 2021. This came as a sudden shock to many, including Atieran government officials. Daniel Hamilton later released a statement on Alexander's behalf. In the statement, he said that "a lot has happened to me mentally and emotionally," and "I am not proud and instead rather ashamed that time and time again I prove myself to be unfit for service as one of the leaders of this nation." Because of this and more, he wrote in his statement that he would be taking an extended break from the micronational community as a whole. He also said that if he were to abdicate the throne of Atiera, Michael, Prince of Galte would ascend to the Atieran throne.[4]
Following up on that statement, he was immediately relieved from his duties as Margrave of Australis by Daniel Hamilton. He was also relieved of any other positions he held up to that point, excluding King of Atiera and Galte.
On 25 June 2021, he returned to the Atiera Discord server and other servers, slowly marking his return to the community. On 6 July, he announced that he would be ending his short hiatus on 16 July 2021, whilst still doing minor tasks in the various micronations he participates in.
Later in the summer, Atiera was dissolved on 25 August 2021, therefore disbanding the Monarchy of Atiera. A union with the Kingdom of Baustralia was discussed, and a treaty was drafted, and remained unsigned, instead Alexander later went on to found the Second Empire of Atiera on 22 November 2021.
