Imperial House of Olea

== Characteristics and Traditions ==
=== Physical Characteristics ===
==== Purple Eyes ====
Purple eyes are the most common and famous characteristic of the Olea family but the origin is quiet interesting. The eye color derives from Zar's connection with Voclari after he was commanded to unite the Aristii lands. It has been passed down but not all members have it and it is not genetic in all cases with adopted children developing the purple eye slowly after their adoption.
==== Wavy Hair ====
Being considered fashionable in the early empire days and alongside Zar, Henri and Otto all having wavy hair, the dominant trait can be found in all members. 
==== Traditional Uniforms ====
The traditional Autokratoras uniform is defined by a white majestic uniform with gold markings and a purple sash. The white represents purity and the sky and the heavens whereas the purple represents Voclari and imperial authority; this links with the idea that the Autokratoras is directly connected to Voclari and is passing his sentence on Eldham.
The traditional Prince uniform originated in the early Empire and is defined by a beautiful green uniform with gold markings and a blue sash. The green represents the land, specifically 'A'ristios' - the so called Great People's Land. The blue represents the sea; creating an image and suggesting the Princes position as leaders of the land.

==== Autokratoras Zar en Olea I (1491-1568) ====
Founder of the Olea Dynasty, Zar served as the first Autokratoras of the Grand Empire of Aristios and is considered as the father of the Aristii for sparking the idea of unity between the regions. Nevertheless, Zar is not a native to Eldham and even Aristios but rather originates from Southern Rathnir. He was a strong fighter and general but very charismatic, he resigned after a heated argument with his council and specifically Otto. He died during the Republic Age when he barricaded himself in the Oleapolis forum burning it down with him, suggesting his mental decline during the sudden decline of Aristios and banishment of his son.

Henri was Zar's youngest son. He served as the second Autokratoras of the Grand Empire of Aristios and was known for leading the Aristii Architectural Revolution and founding Classical Aristii architecture. In addition, Henri was a strong isolationist who was against the idea of Aristiokratia and during his reign was considered the "Builder Autokratoras" due to his reluctance to deal with politics. He died during the Republic of Aristios after the fall of the Empire from a riding accident in Oleapolis at the age of 53.
==== Autokratoras Otto en Olea I (1518-1679) ====
Otto was Zar's oldest son and served as the third Autokratoras of the Grand Empire of Aristios. Otto was known for his strong diplomatic skills and political charisma. A strong interventionist, Otto founded the Eldham/Triple Entente and brought Aristios to the world stage.

Otto was banished to the shadow realm in 1562 but eventually returned after 83 years to a shattered Aristios and led the war and founding of the Imperial Provinces of Aristios. He eventually died after the battle of Akirashalam and the collapse of the Imperial Provinces came soon after.

==== Prince Murdius en Olea-Gerrat (1535-1610) ====

He was the heir of the great kingdom of Shirokaneza in Zamotz but is not loved by the Olea family since after his mothers death he grew distant and ignored his Aristii roots. It was rumored that he helped the coup against his step-father, Otto, and acted as an agent for Zamotz. He became prominent during the Republic and mainly Zarissa which eventually failed. Balake himself was a great warrior as per Shirokaneza tradition but also a good diplomat and politician. 
==== Prince Tjersero en Olea (1544-1655) ====
Tjersero was the son of Henri en Olea.

He was an architect who resided in Oleapolis for most of his life and is known for his contribution in research and studying early history before the rise of the Olea's and Aristios. However, in his late years, he joined Otto and the rest of the Olea's in the Aristii Revolution of 1646 and finally made his allegiances clear in the end.

=== Notable Members ===
==== Voxkratoras Lúka en Olea (1627-1705) ====
Lúka was born to a commoner mother and the last Alanai Horselord in the city of Zarpolis during the Second Kingdom of Aristios. During his youth he found a passion for Aristii history and culture, which he would carry through the rest of his life. He joined the Aristii Revolution at 19. There he met an old Tjersero en Olea through the cultural bureau, where he worked his way up into the inner circle of Otto en Olea. Tjersero eventually adopted him into the Imperial House of Olea. After the fall of the Imperial Provinces of Aristios he consolidated power and became Voxkratoras of Katolis and later reformed the dying Patriarchate of Voclarianism.
In stark contrast to his famously moderate father and grandfather, Lúka was known as the most fiercely nationalistic Aristii, being one of the biggest proponents of Neo-Oleacracy, Imperxion, and violent opposition to groups such as the Kasitai.
He died at the age of 78, in a Kasitai prison following a Noryxii raid.
==== Kratoras Wize en Olea (1630-Present) ====
Wize was born as the son of Ryverius en Olea, King of Exousia and a high official in Veskalide. Growing up he spent most of his time with his grandfather Anthonius Wize, which is who he is named after. His grandfather told him tales of Aristios and about Wize's great-grandfather, Otto en Olea. He spent most of his time reading about Aristios and was uninterested to rule in Veskalide. Luckily for him in 1646 the Aristii Revolution started and with Otto's return he took the first ship and sailed to Aristios to join the effort. He was welcomed with open arms and in a way Otto treated him like the son he lost after the Civil War. He started off as Minister of State and then reached the high position of Grand Minister of Internal Affairs and was a major leader in the Imperial Provinces. After the fall of the Provinces instead of fleeing to Veskalide he secured the remnants of the Province of Olameronia and Amerian and established the Kratoria of Olea which he ruled and later acted as the Grand Duke of the Olea dynasty after his fathers passing. 
==== Valka Milos en Olea (1660-Present) ====
Milos was born during the Imperial Provinces of Aristios in Zaropollis, he was the son of Wize en Olea and unlike his family members he was more interested in war. Growing up in hard times he considered foreign affairs and politics a waste of time but rather believed in the use of force as a way of achieving his goals. During the late Imperial Provinces he served in the army and as an officer and was in charge of the defenses in Akirashalam, an obvious impossible task. Watching his entire nation be destroyed and his friends and family killed or wounded Milos changed, falling into an obsessive state of nationalism and revanchism for Aristios. Throughout the early 1700s Milo led the VVR intervention which the Kratoria of Preyella and Olea eventually pulled out off. He later became a Valka (general) in the Tagmata en Noryxius, a military alliance between the Aristii states and serves as Grand Marshal of the Kratoria en Olea.
==== A'Venikos Andronikos en Olea (1671-Present) ====
Born as the second son of Wize en Olea, like his brother, Andronikos was a staunch militarist and fighter. However, he was also extremely passionate in history and the arts. Growing up he worked in the Imperial Tagmata and eventually joined the Imperial Palace Guard at the age of 17. He served in the Siege of Akirashalam and is the only member of the guard who survived; this due to him rescuing A'Kratoras Otto en Olea after his wound and moving him to Perdin. He blamed the death of Otto on himself and for some period his location became unknown, however it is rumored he moved to a monastery in south Astillia and trained. He returned to the Kratoria en Olea to serve his father in 1702 YAI and later became A'Venikos (Grand Marshal) of the Tagmata en Noryxius, a religious and military alliance between all the Imperial Remnant Kratorias.
