'''Emperor Carolus XIII''' (birth name: '''Carolus Ioan Fridaros Alffo Albaros Consteynnos eui Zor-Mako-Vasa-Nassau'''), often nicknamed '''Carolus the Young,''' is the current [[King of the Sarovians (title)|EmperorRoyo of theeui Newdo SarovianSarovians Empirey andImperad Hereui Colonieslan andComune DominionsSaroviana]]. Born in 306 AS, Carolus XIII is the grandson of Emperor [[Constantine IX Vasa|Constantine IX]] who reigned from 275 AS to 311 AS. Carolus was second in line to the throne but, upon a private meeting of the Privy Council, his father [[John, Prince of Kiev|HisJohn ImperialVasa, HighnessPrînzip the Prince ofeui Kiev]] renounced his rights in favour of his son. Carolus gained a legal degree with a specialisation in Sarovian constitutional law from [[Falkenholm College]], and in late 310/311 AS, gained a commission from his grandfather as an Honourary Major of the Imperial Guard Infantry Regiment (No.3 Grenadier Guards) and Honourary [[Marshal of the Empire|Field Marshal]] of the [[Imperial Army|Imperial Sarovian Army]].

Line 28:
=== Early Life ===
 
According to longstanding [[Sarovian naming traditions|Sarovian traditions and customs]], Charles was named after three relatives - Charles after [[Constantine IX Vasa]], John after his father, and Frederick after [[Constantine VI & I Vasa]]. He inherited his title of Duke of Sorrel from his mother. In 308 and 309, he was given further names as per Sarovian traditions. His full name is Carolus Ioan Fridaros Alffo Albaros Consteynnos eui Vasa (Charles John Frederick Alfonso Albert Constantine of Vasa). In 311, his grandfather Constantine IX was declared dead, and his father the Prince of Kiev had renounced his right to the Sarovian throne, resulting in Charles becoming the King of the Sarovians and Emperor of the Sarovian Commonwealth. He is not yet the [[Stefanic ages and the calendar#Ages|age of majority]], leaving his father to act as Prince Regent.
 
=== Falkenholm College ===
 
EarlyCharles reports indicate the child is receiving a civic and martial education from Falkenholm College and the Kiev Staff College. In 310 AS, he gotobtained his degree at Falkenholm College in Law,310 AS and took another exam for the Bar to become an official lawyer specialising in Constitutional Law. He currently servesserved as an Honourary Officer of the Blue Guard Corps while in school, and upon graduating, commissioned as a Sarovian Field Marshal. The Prince of Kiev has indicated previously Charles was never intended to obtain a martial degree, preferring him to be a civilian King, something that Constantine IX had also wished for him.

=== Ascension ===
 
[[Constantine IX Vasa|Constantine IX]], the Emperor whose reign symbolized an era of transformative reforms, passed away on November 28th, 311 AS at [[Stenhammer Imperial Palace, 3 Dallarna Way|Stenhammer Palace]]. He had gone to [[Stenhammer Imperial Palace, 3 Dallarna Way|Stenhammer Palace]] on the 26th of November intending to take a break, but his deteriorating health, evident from early November, prompted Chief Herald Loggail to urgently summon members of the House of Vasa and the Prime Minister to the palace on the 28th of November around 6PM EST. Alongside his father and his grandmother, Charles rushed to the scene. By the time Charles had arrived on the 28th around 6:30PM EST, Constantine had already succumbed to his condition at 6:44 PM EST, prior to their presence. The House of Vasa officially declared his passing at 7:11 PM EST on the same day by a press release in all Realms through Sarovian Pathe.
 
Charles had already known that his father had renounced his right to the throne, after long and lengthy conversations with the Empress-Consort, the Emperor, and the Prince and Princess of Kiev. Upon the demise of Constantine IX, Charles immediately became the King of the Sarovians and Emperor of the Sarovian Commonwealth. On the 30th of November, Charles was proclaimed to [[Privy Council|His Imperial Majesty's Privy Council]] as Carolus XIII. On the 1st and 2nd of December, he was proclaimed as Carolus II and Carolus I in Carolusburg and Philippia and Metternau in their respective Privy Councils.

=== Titles and styles ===
 
ConstantineCarolus IXXIII has gone by many different titles and styles depending on the realms in which he was part of. In each of his realms, colonies and dominions, ConstantineCarolus had a distinct title that follows a similar formula that includes the realm's title, such as King of Carolusburg, Philippia, etc. In his Sarovian style, all titles ConstantineCarolus possessedpossesses within member states of the Sarovian Commonwealth were featured. ConstantineCarolus hadhas many more titles than that throughout his life, which wereare often "reduced" out of his official title and style into auxiliary positions to keep it much simpler. The Imperial Styles Act mandated that his predecessor's title would be:
Upon ascension to the throne, many Peers believed he would be "'''Carolus XIII'''", as his first name was Charles. Instead, he took the name of his most recent ancestor monarch.

=== Coat of arms ===
 
As the Duke of Sorrel, Carolus XIII' arms were that of the [[Vasa|House of Vasa]], differenced by a white label befitting an heir and three Vasa roses. They were granted to him by his grandfather and his godfather, [[Constantine IX Vasa]]. Through the virtue of being the King of the Sarovians and the Emperor of the New Sarovian Empire, Carolus XIII was the source of all heraldry and symbols through during his reign and bears the arms of New Sarovia. However, depending on the Sarovian Dominion or other united country he finds himself, his arms will reflect the country in which he represents at any given time. In matters of cross-country importance, Carolus XIII uses his personal arms which are those of the New Sarovian Empire and are defaced by the arms of Mako-Zor.
