Dietmar IX (Gerlach Haymann Hielbert Luther; born 29 November 2008) has been Emperor of Berush and the Holy Realms since 2039.
Gerlach was born in Wooder's Burrow in 2008 during the reign of his maternal grandfather, Emperor Dietmar VIII, and became heir apparent when his mother, Empress Hilda IV, acceded to the throne in 2027. He was educated privately at home, before going on to the Charleston College of Ineichell and earning a politics degree. After graduating, he went on to administer the city of Ineichell, before his mother abdicated in 2039 in his favour.
Early Life
Gerlach was born at 17:53 (BT) at Wooder's Burrow on 29 November 2008 during the reign of his maternal grandfather, as the first child of Crown Princess Roswitha Otto Vonnegut Luther IV (later Empress Hilda IV) and Prince Berthold Forst. He was delivered by Caesarean section. On 18 December 2008, he was baptised as Gerlach Haymann Hielbert of the House of Luther in the Royal Bedroom of St. Niklaus Estate by the Defender of the Faith Euclid XII.
Gerlach was often ill and was described by family as "weak-bodied and prone to colds". He had chronic stomach problems throughout his life, and developed asthma when he was six, for which he had to often stay at home for several hours a day. Luther was cherished by his grandfather Dietmar VIII, whom affectionally referred to him as "Little Mar", and the regular visits from his grandfather have been credited as being a source of comfort for Dietmar. His cousin Hagnon Forst VII described him as "a character. His mere presence commands dignity and respect, whilst remaining respectful himself and well-behaved; a rarity in infants."
Gerlach's only sibling, Princess Conradine, was born in 2010, when he was two. When Gerlach turned 10, a private governess known as Sibylle Wehner was appointed to educate him. Lessons typically concentrated on literature and history. He did not recieve preferential treatment from the public during his youth, due to the fact that many were dismayed that their ruler would one day deal with chronic sicknesses. Following the end of his private education, he attended Charleston College of Ineichell, the first Berushian heir apparent to attend a university. There, he earned a Master's degree in politics.
Marriage
Dietmar met his future wife, Margarete Becker, in 2023 at a noble party. They were fourth cousins once removed through Crown Prince Dietmar VI. After meeting a second time in 2027 at the Charleston College of Ineichell, Margarete, two years Dietmar's elder, announced that she had fell in love with him, and they soon began exchanging letters. Their parents approved, though Dietmar's sister did not, claiming that Margarete was too pro-Heldervinian. Dietmar married Margarete on 10 February 2040, after 13 lengthy years of love between the two.
