**Queen Olivia Von-Koopa III** was the 161st monarch of the Koopa Kingdom. Her reign began in 1455 upon her mother's abdication, and it ended in 1484 when she abdicated the throne to her eldest daughter Olivia, who then was crowned Queen Olivia IV. Olivia was born in 1437 and died in 1513 at the age of 75 years old.

### Backstory

#### Childhood

Princess Olivia was born on July 29th, 1437 to Queen Katrina Von-Koopa of the Koopa Kingdom and her third cousin, Otto Formeist. She had two younger brothers that survived into adulthood named Prince Edward (who later changed his name to Edgar) and Prince Harold, as well as having a younger Sister named Princess Jasmine who died at the age of 4. Olivia’s Mother’s reign was met with much criticism, as she was known for her low effort in keeping good relations with nearby Kingdoms, as she didn’t want any of her children to marry outside the Kingdom since she wasn’t comfortable with sending them overseas to marry people they’ve never met, let alone royalty from other Kingdoms. Queen Katrina also tried to keep the Kingdom just how it was instead of doing what she could to improve it, and this wasn’t a good thing since the late Dark ages of the Kingdom weren’t a great time for Koopanese citizens.

11 year old Princess Olivia made a date for her coronation shortly after her Grandmother, Queen Zoey II, died in 1448. There wasn't much hope from the public regarding Princess Olivia, since it was believed that she would continue in her mother’s footsteps and do little for the Kingdom’s improvement. When Olivia heard how the public viewed her image, she decided to work harder than ever in learning what was wrong with the Kingdom, possible solutions to those problems and she worked on her physical strength to gain confidence for when she would take the Koopa Throne.

#### Castle Fire

In the year 1452, a large portion of Darkland Village had caught on fire due to an incident involving Magic. The Royal Family wasn’t informed about it until it had already reached the Castle, and while Queen Katrina, Prince Otto and their sons were exiting the building, Princess Olivia stayed inside and convinced many of her Aunts, Uncles and Cousins to stay inside the building and help her put out the flames. Princess Olivia and dozens of other Von-Koopa family members were able to put out the fire in the Castle without any casualties and nothing major getting damaged. The priority of what the castle servants had to put out went from being the Castle to being the nearby Village, so the flames were then eventually put out after a few hours.

After the people of Darkland had seen the act of bravery Princess Olivia had done for them, she was immediately loved by the Koopa Kingdom and was now viewed with high hopes. Princess Olivia was met with high demand to become the new Queen immediately, but the Princess wanted to keep her original coronation date, as she wanted to give her Mother another few years to redeem herself as Queen before her reign ended. Thankfully, Queen Katrina was able to make a few improvements to the Kingdom over the next few years, with most of these improvements being suggestions from the public.

#### Early Reign

Olivia was crowned as Queen Olivia Von-Koopa III on October 26th, 1455 at the age of 18. Immediately her focus was to improve many of the Kingdom’s government systems, improve education throughout the Kingdom and to get in good relationships with as many other Kingdoms as possible. The beginning of Olivia’s reign was the start of an era known as the “Great Koopanese Enlightenment” (1456-1780), which was when new medicines, discoveries, inventions and ideas and more were being created, and out of the nearly 4 millennium Koopanese history; this era was considered the Peak of the Koopa Kingdom, and without it the Kingdom would likely still be living in the Dark Ages, and would’ve had a much harder time recovering from the aftermath of the Ruined Empire.

In 1458, Queen Olivia III set up multiple plans for potential disasters in the Kingdom. One of the more notable plans was one that would prevent a future famine event, which helped regulate livestock, manage the famous Koopanese rice reserves and it opened up more jobs for citizens to work in the countryside. This specific plan prevented a few potential famines in the Kingdom’s history, but during the regency of Prince Jeremiah in the mid 1600s. The Kingdom was going through a terrible famine at the time and it was only made worse when Prince Jeremiah refused to go with Olivia III’s plan because “he didn’t want to go through all the paperwork”, thus resulting in an event known as “The Starvation” (1647-1652).

#### Marriage

In the Thorned Kingdom during the year 1461, Prime Minister Irwyn Tarquire, was having trouble balancing his focus on running his Kingdom, and focusing on taking care of his 78 children (41 sons, 37 daughters). So he sent 68 of them overseas, 4 each on 17 different ships heading in different directions, while he kept his 10 favorite sons at home with him. The ship holding Rolonde, Annetta, Jaicee, and Eliot Tarquire reached the shores of the Koopa Kingdom after many days at sea. The ship appearing on the shores of the Kingdom was quickly noticed by Koopanese citizens, and so Queen Olivia was soon notified as well.

The four teenage children of the Thorned Prime Minister were taken into the Koopa Castle for questioning and so they could get their energy back, as they were in poor health due to how much they spared their rations, as they thought the journey to land would take much longer than the teens originally thought. Once the three girls were back to good health, they were given high-class housing in Darkland Village, well paying jobs, and upfront money and food to give them enough resources to get back on their feet. However, the one son and the oldest child who was on the ship, Eliot (who later changed his name to “Elliot” after reaching the Koopa Kingdom due to unspecified immigration reasons), was given a place to stay in the Castle, which he didn’t understand why at the time, but it was because the Queen secretly had a crush on the 19 year old, and enjoyed his company.

Olivia and Elliot eventually became a public couple and they were soon married in 1463, with the marriage getting approved by the royal council since Elliot was a son of the Thorned Prime Minister, so their marriage was good for the Kingdom’s international relationships. The couple had 5 children that survived into adulthood, Princess Olivia (later Queen Olivia IV), Prince Philip, Princess Jasmine, Princess Diana and Princess Anne. The couple did have a few children who died in infancy as well as a son named “Prince Edward”, but he died at the age of 2.

#### Late Reign

3 years after the death of Olivia’s father in 1467, Queen Olivia III and her immediate family went to go see a Magic show that was made to celebrate her Mother’s 60th Birthday. While viewing some of the flashing bright colors that were at the event, Olivia suddenly had a violent seizure, so she was taken back to the Castle, and the event was canceled as a result. When Olivia was taken back to the Castle, the doctors were able to wake her up and she was fine after that, but she was diagnosed with the “Curse of Nishinotōin, the Koopanese Goddess of Light”, which is now known today as “Epilepsy”. Despite this incident, Olivia continued living her life as normal and continued making numerous public appearances, and she refused to let the public know about her diagnosis, as she was afraid some would use it as a way to assassinate her.

The oldest child of Olivia III and Elliot, Princess Olivia, became heir to the throne in 1477 when she was 12 years old. Princess Olivia was a child who wanted to follow in her mother’s footsteps but had the view that the Kingdom would improve if other Kingdoms who weren’t helping out with the Koopa Kingdom’s progress were forced to do so, by any means necessary. The parents of the Princess were rarely available to teach their daughter how to be a good Queen, as Prince Elliot was out leading military campaigns and Queen Olivia was setting up her four other children's marriages with family members of foreign Kingdoms.

Since there was no assistant for the Von-Koopa family at the time, Princess Olivia was taught how to be a Queen by her slightly older cousins, Princess Katrina (the daughter of Prince Edgar) and Prince Harrison (the son of Prince Harold). In 1479, Princess Olivia was able to convince her own mentors that using force to improve the Kingdom would be their best option, and thus she was practically now self-taught on how to be a good Queen. Princess Olivia was crowned as Queen Olivia Von-Koopa IV on January 10th, 1484, at the age of 18.

### Issue

#### Olivia IV, Queen of the Koopa Kingdom

Princess Olivia was the first daughter and child of Queen Olivia III that survived to adulthood. She was born in 1465 and died in 1537 at the age of 71.

Her first husband was Howard Dollings, who was the Duke of Koopagoda Peak and was an adoptive second cousin of Olivia (Howard being the grandson of Prince Chester, an adopted son of Zoey II). The couple married in 1491 had 7 children together (including King James I). Howard was born in 1461 and died in 1509 at the age of 47.

Her second husband was Conrad Noverah, who was the Duke of Koopaint Krag and was a third half-cousin of Olivia (Conrad being the great grandson of Prince Louis, a son of Zoey I and her second husband). The couple married in 1515 and had no children together. Conrad was born in 1468 and died in 1542 at the age of 74.

#### Philip, Duke of Starroad Hill

Prince Philip was the only son and second child of Queen Olivia III that survived to adulthood. He was born in 1467 and died in 1524 at the age of 56. He is known for his four marriages, all being to close relatives of other Monarchs. His first two marriages were arranged by his Parents.

His first wife was a daughter of King Croacus LXXII of the Botanical Kingdom. They were married in 1483 when Philip was around 16 years old, and while the two got along well with each other, they never really felt any affection for one another. The couple had 5 children before their marriage was annulled in 1490 when Philip's wife was told that she was now the Botanical Queen, and she had to remarry if she wanted to become Queen Croacus LXXIII.

His second wife was a granddaughter of King Patrick VI of the Mushroom Kingdom. They were married in 1492 and didn't have any children together that survived past childhood. Their marriage was annulled in 1496 after Philip's wife was declared insane by the Royal Noble Council. This was because she was a known conspiracist, as she tried to convince the Von-Koopa Family that their Planet was actually a sphere and that it rotated around the Sun instead of the other way around.

After Philip's second wife was sent back to the Mushroom Kingdom, Queen Olivia told her son that she wouldn't arrange any more marriages to him, and that he could either remarry to someone of his choice, or he could remain spouseless. Philip was excited upon hearing this news as he had a secret relationship with someone else.

Philip's third wife was a half-sister of King Finnegan XIX and King Gulliver XVII of the Beanbean Kingdom, she moved to the Koopa Kingdom after her home Kingdom was taken over by anarchists (who later ended up executing her half-brother, Finnegan). The Beanbean Kingdom went into anarchy after King Finnegan XIX sold his Kingdom's cherished Potato supply to the Sprixie Kingdom who gave Finnegan a small loan of a million coins in return. They were married in 1497 and had 8 children together before her death in 1515, to which Philip was horribly upset about.

Philip's fourth and final wife was a niece of Tsar Sergei VIII of the Snow Kingdom. They were married in 1518 and had 3 children together before Philip himself died in 1524. He was buried with his third (and favorite) wife.

### Trivia

* The husband of Olivia, Elliot Tarquire, was sent on a ship with 3 of his sisters. Rolonde was his full-sister and only full-sibling, Annetta Jaicee were their half-sisters, but they were also half-sisters themselves since Annetta and Jaicee had different mothers.
