King Kuzon III

King Kuzon III (505 - c.380 BA) was one of the ancient Saiyan Kings, and an ancestor of Kuzon. He served from 446 to 396 Before Age, when he was dethroned by King Kakarac I, commencing the Kakar Empire, and taking down the 178-year reign of the Kuz Empire. He is known for his blindness and ineffective leadership, failing to advance science, education, and make Saiyans a first-class universal empire, as he wanted.
He had two children, the first of which Kuzala. Since she was a female, she was not capable of taking the Saiyan throne. His second child was Prince Kuzon IV, who was the heir to the throne (though never got it).
==History==
Born into a wealthy, prominent royal family and bloodline of the Kuz Clan, Kuzon III was the son of then-King Kuzon II and grandson of King Kuzon I. He was born at a time of peace and prosperity. At age 17, he was attacked by an assassin, rendering him permanently blind. However this didn't stop him from learning to read and being a scholar. 
He believed the Saiyan race were still tribal and wished to advance scientific and technological exposition, to lead them to a first-class space empire up to par with other intelligent aliens. However many were opposed to him and he was unable to get much done, as most still favored the old ways of isolationism (after many wars and defeats in the past trying to ally with alien empires). Kuzon III was a mediocre leader though, and was not assertive. His blindness effected his ability to lead and he gave up in his pursuits, realizing it was a dream. Later in his reign, Planet Saiya's economy stagnated and weakened. He then had strong opposition.
In 400 Before Age, Kakarac I attempted to dethrone him and end the Kuz Dynasty, saying they all shared the same 'education innovation' ideology, which was proved not to work. Many supported him. After a 4-year small war, Kakarac was successful and overthrew Kuzon III in 396 BA. With this, the Kuz Clan was thrown into peasantry and maintained a low profile for many years before once again entering politics. Kuzon III died around 380 BA, at the age of 125, sixteen years after leaving the throne.
