The Empire is ruled by an Emperor (or sometime Empress), an absolute monarch elected by a body of electors. The electors choose one of their number to become the next Emperor. Despite taking the guise of an electoral system, the title has been dominated by a few prominent dynasties. The position of Emperor has been in the hands of the current emperor, Karl Franz's direct ancestor since 2429. There also have been periods of interregnum, most notably between 1152 and 1359, when the electors could not agree on an Emperor for 200 years.

  • The Empire is ruled by an Emperor (or sometime Empress), an absolute monarch elected by a body of electors. The electors choose one of their number to become the next Emperor. Despite taking the guise of an electoral system, the title has been dominated by a few prominent dynasties. The position of Emperor has been in the hands of the current emperor, Karl Franz's direct ancestor since 2429. There have been many times in the Empire's history when there have been multiple emperors. In 1360, the Ottilia of Talabecland proclaimed herself Empress despite the election of the Grand Duke of Stirland. When the Count of Middenheim also proclaimed himself Emperor, the Time of Three Emperors began. The Empire was not united under one ruler until 2304, when Magnus the Pious united all the provinces during the Great War Against Chaos. There also have been periods of interregnum, most notably between 1152 and 1359, when the electors could not agree on an Emperor for 200 years.
