Constantine IX Vasa: Difference between revisions

Constantine IX had a variety of monograms and cyphers, including some merged with his wife the Empress-Consort. On his 12th Stefanic year anniversary, however, he issued a decree to change said monogram, which stayed with him until his death. There are examples of Constantine's monogram with both the Imperial Crown and the St. Charles Crown. The monogram and cyphers were used in a variety of ways, including on the facades of buildings, buttons of soldier's uniforms, document headers, and more. The old cyphers from his early reign did not change despite the decree depending on jurisdiction, leading to some variety. The Dominions of Metternau and Philippia maintained the old monograms whereas the Remerra Saroviano, New Sarovia proper and the Dominion of Carolusburg reflected the new monogram of the Emperor.
