Lemur King

The Lemur King, Draphonaris Morshu, is a ceremonial monarch residing in the Zamotz State, and formerly was the title of the leader of the Eldham state of Limuria and one of the three triarchs of the Zamotz Union, Draphonaris Limunaris.
According to Zamotian mythology, the Lemur King is the living heir to the Lemur God and possesses the divine mandate to the land of Zamotz.
== History ==
The Lemur King was the de facto and de jure leader of the state of Limuria for all of its independent history, ruling as a monarch whose powers could only be checked by the Kritarchy. During negotiations to create the Zamotz Union, the Lemur King acted as the representative for Limuria.
Within the Zamotz Union, a constitutional diarchy — later a triarchy after Shirokaneza's entry into the Union — was established, in which the Lemur King held one of the three seats. Though the Joseph Constitution and subsequent Union constitutions did not explicitly state that the Lemur King hold one of these seats, the Lemur King held a position within the triarchy for the entirety of the position's existence. As such, the Zamotian population widely regards the position as intrinsically related to Zamotz regardless of the lack of an explicit constitutional mention. During this time, the Kritarchy had no federal equivalent. When Limuria and Suuntur unified internally to form the Province of Kolnor, no Kritarchy existed and its legal basis was lost, making the Lemur King the absolute representative of the Lemurfolk. 
The Zamotz State, prior to its formal creation under the Summer 18th Ordinance, had widespread support for the Lemur King being enshrined as the head of state. While the Summer 18th Ordinance did not enshrine the Lemur King as the Head of State, he was recognized as a ceremonial monarch residing in the country, reflecting Morshu's increased cultural presence on the country.
