Emperor of Cysteria

The Emperor of Cysteria is a dynastic title handed to the rulers of the Empire of Cysteria which lasted from 58 FL to 397 FL when Emperor Braemus II died after the long and bloody Cysterian civil war which resulted in the fracturing of the Empire.

House of Aranae
Following the coup of Traitarae led by Cysterian VI, the Duke of Aranae in 58 FL he crowned himself Emperor of Cysteria (the new name of Tratarae). The vast treasury of the city state and relatively high technology allowed him to expand quickly and validate his title.

After Aranae
After the downfall of House Aranae in both Cysteria and Tyrvopol the title of Emperor of Cysteria has not been used officially. The next closest title is King of Cysteria which refers to the rulers of the Kingdom of Cysteria which lasted for a few monarchs between the fall of Cysteria and the are being conquered by Vizzetia. The title of King of Cysteria has been used by Vizzetian monarchs until Contessina II who integrated the title into the Kingdom of Vizzetia.

The nearest legitimate descendant to the throne of Cysteria is Princess Julianna who is a niece of Cysterian III and Braemus I through their sister Arametta. Julianna became Duchess of Aranae upon the death of Cysterian III through popular revolt. She later married Cossimo, Duke of Barrigni who is considered the founding father of the House of Barrigni and the Vizzetian monarchs.
