Richard V of Great Britain

Richard V was the King of the United Kingdom from 80 BU until the abolition of the British monarchy by the Averte Statum in 75 BU (although he remained a public figurehead and de facto king until 42 BU).
Richard V inherited the throne at the age of 50 upon the death of his father, Richard IV. He was the second monarch of the House of Westminster. He was crowned during a tumultuous time when rebel groups ravaged parts of Britain.
During Richard's reign, the British National Front - the organisation responsible for elevating his family to it's royal status to replace the Windsor Family - was overthrown by rebels, who viewed the "National Front" as a tool of the Euro Alliance. Richard, however, retained his status due to his popularity in the United Kingdom. Two years later however, the Averte Statum seized control of London, and Richard V was deposed.
Despite no longer having any official role in Government, Richard V still retained the right to live in Buckingham Palace, and he personally owned Balmoral Castle and Sandringham house, properties that had been repossessed from the Windsor family. Richard V remained a de facto king, and in this capacity he attempted to lighten the spirits of the British after the horrors of the second civil war. During his reign, his daughter, Mary (formerly Princess Royal), married George of house Windsor, the son of the Windsor heir to the throne. His granddaughter Elizabeth was born in 63 BU. In 42 BU, Richard abdicated and officially sanctioned the coronation of Elizabeth as Queen Elizabeth III of the Kingdom of Great Britain. He bore the titles King Emeritus and King Father from that point until his death in 35 BU, aged 95.
