Early life

Emperor of Exponent

Following the events of the Albandaean Crisis, Octavius V agreed to step down from the throme and be replaced by his more reform-minded brother, Liberius. In return for peace and a return to order, Liberius swiftly began executing a series of sweeping changes across Exponential society that he felt were necessary to maintain the Empire as they came into the 20th century.

Legacy

Liberius XXI saw the Empire of Exponent through two major wars as well as a full-blown revolution, all of which served to hasten the decline of the already ailing empire.

After the Albandaean Crisis Liberius XXI did make good on many of his promises,abolishing the Hesperidesian Inquisition and taking steps to modernize all of Exponential society. The most important component of this modernization was the first ever complete, Empire-wide census, which provides many Hesperidesians with the surnames that they bear today. Prior to this, several families had adopted names through smaller regional censuses, but for the first time each and every citizen of the Empire of Exponent had a legal surname after the 1897 Hesperidesian Census.
