King Iulian I was the third King of Stoinia and reformed the Kingdom into a Star Kingdom. He is known for the Stellar Ascension of the Stoinians and the reorganisation of the military. Early Life As the heir to the Philosopher King, he grew up on Stoinia and even lived amongst the Shintoïst enclave from his fourteenth until his sixteenth. At the age of 16 he joined the Royal Military Academy and enjoyed the thrill of the military. He became and expert swordsman and a competent commander, receiving commendations from both his peers and superiors. Although he shared the basic views of his father, he believed that to ensure its survival, the military would have to be reworked. The Mardakii had learned the Stoinians that regardless of traditional lifestyle, if they couldn't protect themselves they were doomed. King Iulian was the embodiment of this statement and became a career military officer and with his troops he helped speeding up the proces of the Stellar Ascension. This mainly consisted of building mines and building shipyards. Stellar Ascension With the sudden death of his father, the Throne was now bestowed unto him. It would take another decade before the Stellar Ascension would be realised, but that didn't mean he couldn't prepare for it. He reorganised the military. The Navy had become a new branch, one tasked with space warfare and the protection of its people and borders. The new naval engineers gathered and made prototypes of warships. Eventually the military in conjunction with Sinaia Science University was successful in creating the first warp drive. As soon as the colony ships were build, so were the new naval ships. This marked the birth of a new era in Stoinian history: the stellar age. The Stoinians would now take it upon themselves to spread Mankind into the stars. Of course this meant that the government would need to be reshaped to ensure the colony worlds would receive their representation. With the population having grown substantially, 80.000 new colonists were sent to form the basis of what would later become the Core Sector. Amongst these were the Shintoïst who had taken a planet of their own: Shikoku. Because of the King granting them this colony, he received the official title of Tennō of Shikoku. The Shintoïsts had already recognised him as the ikigami, but now they solidified his rule as a divine being. Iulian accepted, but was sure to not cross his boundaries with this new job title. He would also routinely visit the new colony worlds and bringing the military with him to ensure protection. This he did for the remainder of his long 50 year reign. Making the Kingdom of Stoinia into a real Star Kingdom. Death Although he had become the oldest monarch, he hadn't given up his position to his son. He felt that his duty to the military could never be fulfilled and that's why he never abdicated. Eventually he would die of old age, leaving the Throne to his eldest son, Alexandru II.
