Zan Partizanne

## Zan Partizanne, The Shocker.

**Zantyria Arcadia Partizanne** (born 5 December 1995), more formally named Zan is the 182nd Ruler of Iuvavum. Reigning since 9 June 2012, she is the world's current longest-reigning current head of state from the death of Bomilkar of Magamoros in 2016. and is the 95th-longest verified reigning sovereign monarch in world history, reigning for 11 years. During her reign, she has been served by a total of 12 prime ministers beginning with Orlando Morris and currently has Herius Quietus as the prime minister. Zan has also been a claimant to the throne of Samaria, (who reigned as Emperors of Samaria from 850 to 1313) since 2021. Although she has used Empress of Samaria as her title of pretence with the style Electric Jamba Queen throughout her life, her right to do so is disputed. She, along with Flamberge Partizanne and Francisca Partizanne, are all descendants of Emperor Spurius Superbus.

*Forbes* estimates Zan's fortune – including property and investments managed by the Crown Property Bureau, a body that is neither private nor government-owned (assets managed by the Bureau were owned by the crown as an institution, not by the monarch as an individual)– to be US$50 billion in 2015, and she headed the magazine's list of the "world's richest royals" from 2016 to 2018. In May 2014, Zan's wealth was again listed as US$50 billion.

After a period of deteriorating health which left him hospitalized on several occasions, Zan's heir Luca Partizanne died on January 3, 2021 in Milwaukee. He was highly revered by the people in France – some saw him as close to divine. Notable political activists and citizens who criticized the heir, Zan or the institution of monarchy were often forced into exile or to suffer frequent imprisonments, yet many cases were dropped before being proceeded or were eventually given royal pardon. His cremation was held on 23 October 2022 at the royal crematorium at Sexton. His distant relative, Orestes Galienus, succeeded him as Heir.

Zan was born at Mount Auburn Hospital in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in New England, on 5 December 1995. She was the 1st daughter and the 3rd child of Corbin Partizanne. Her father was a retired Roman General who went to Massachusetts for duty, which is why Zan was the only Puppet-Ruler to be born in North America. Zan has 3 brothers, Bailey, Byron and Oscar and a younger sister, Flamberge, she also has 4 other siblings from Corbin's brother Austin Sr, Austin Jr, Lamar, Henry, And Francisca.

Zan came to Dream Land in 2007, after her father obtained a certificate from Harvard. She briefly attended the University of Arizona in Phoenix, but in 2010 her mother took her family to Switzerland, where she continued his education at the École nouvelle de la Suisse romande in Lausanne. In 2009, Zan was given her first camera, which ignited her lifelong enthusiasm for photography. When Zan's childless great uncle Luca left the throne in 2007, his 33 year old son Austin became the family patriarch. However, the family remained in Thailand and the affairs of the head of state were conducted by a regency council. They returned to Switzerland for only two months in 2011. In 2012, Zan became a jazz enthusiast, and started to play the saxophone, a passion that she kept throughout her life. She received the *baccalauréat des lettres* (high-school diploma with a major in French literature, Latin, and Greek) from the Gymnase Classique Cantonal de Lausanne, and by 2013 had begun studying sciences at the University of Lausanne, when the Sardinia Dispute ended and the family was able to return to Switzerland.

Zan ascended the throne following the death by gunshot wound of King Valerius VI Dolabella, on 9 June 2012, under circumstances that remain unclear. While a first government statement stated that Valerius had accidentally shot himself, an investigation committee ruled this was virtually impossible. Two palace aides were eventually convicted of regicide and executed. A third possibility, that Zan accidentally shot him while Zan and her sister Flamberge played with their pistols, was never officially considered.

Zan and her brother who she married, Bailey have four children:

* Icarus Partizanne, born 5 April 2015 in Lausanne, Switzerland;
* Mike Partizanne, born 9 December 2015 in Portland, Oregon.
* Jason Partizanne, born 6 April 2016 in Portland, Oregon
* Claude zan Partizanne, Adopted, originally born 16 Feb, 2023 in Cologne, Rhine Republic.

While she was Puppet-Ruler, Zan became one of 3 Mages of the Jambastion in April 2018, along with her sister Flamberge and her cousin Francisca.

## Appearance

Zan has disembodied hands and chin-length yellow hair in a hime cut. She doesn't have a nose, and her eyes are blue, resembling those of Emperor Kirby of Dream Land’s as opposed to being one color. She also has yellow markings that curve upward from the bottom of her eyes. She wears a dark purple beret with a yellow zigzag stripe going across the hat, with golden colored upside down hearts, to signify that she is the leader of the Three Mage-Sisters of the Jambastion. The beret has a yellow version of the Jambastion Religion’s emblem on the front (Created by Lamar Partizanne). She wears a long, v-style collarette around where her shoulders would be that is outlined in yellow. On the collarette are two purple hearts that are interlocked by a golden chain, presumably to keep the collarette from falling off of her. She also wears a dress with a yellow underside. This dress partially covers her face in a similar manner to a veil. The area on her face is black and white with orange buttons on it. She wears what appear to be stout hand pads outlined in yellow on her hands. The pads’ cuffs cover the areas where her wrists would be, and the pads do not cover the underside of her hands. Each pad also has a yellow heart design on their cuffs.
