Officially recognised by the [[Imperial Parliament | Sarovian Legislative Chamber]] in 268 AS as the [[King of the Sarovians (title)|King of the Sarovians]], he is the first and only monarch who was a King of another country before becoming sovereign of New Sarovia. He is known as "Francis the Good" in the State for briefly asserting the State's independence within the Vasa Commonwealth and known as "Francis the Usurper" by Sarovians. He is the second shortest reigning Sarovian monarch since [[Edward I Vasa]]. Despite his legal regnal name in the State being Constantine II Francis and his Sarovian regnal name as Constantine VII Francis, he is commmonly known simply as Francis I.

=== King of the Sarovians, Abdication and Death ===
 
Regardless, when the Lord Lochland was declared Regent and Brianna was declared dead, Francis assembled the State Army and marched to Sarholm, transporting his men to Kiev to be ready to be transported by borrowed ships. Francis asked for his chief advisors to attend, but von Seloke went missing and was declared dead four Stefanic years later, presumably on the orders of Lord Lochland, but it could not be proven. The Lord-Regent met Francis, alongside George, and hashed out a deal. Lord Lochland was able to convince Francis without von Seloke's input that he had control of the New Sarovian Empire and, due to this, the throne was in safe hands. Allegedly, Lochland and Francis became good friends over the course of the negotiations and Lochland confessed that the succession issue was unfair. When Fairfax accused Lochland over the disappearance of von Seloke, Francis stood up and defended him, citing him as an honourable man. AsFrancis however could not march away without some sort of victory, so a deal was made to make everyone a winner, or at least appear to be. With this suchmind, Francis would be legally proclaimed by the Sarovian Chamber to be the King of the Sarovians if he would immediately abdicate in favour of George, acknowledging his "victory" over Brianna. He did so despite the excessive pleas of Fairfax and Kellos to not do so, and war was avoided. Fairfax and Kellos had been outplayed - the easily manipulated King was manipulated by Lord Lochland.
 
Francis would return home and, two Stefanic years later, would order the execution of Fairfax and Kellos. He maintained friendly relations with Lochland and, when Lochland was declared dead, only days later did Francis disappear without a will or an heir, returning the throne to [[George I Vasa-Nassau.]]
