Aggelos I (reconstructed Middle Saxender: Άγγελος; c. 2887-2844 BL) was the first king of the Saxenders to unite the Saxender tribes under a single ruler, changing the leadership from several squabbling kings into one powerful king. He is considered to be the founder of the Aggelosian Dynasty, which ruled the Saxender empire for the next 35 years. He has been immortalized by those from Saxbury for being "the direct predecessor and king of what one day would become the Duchy of Saxbury".
Aggelos succeeded his father, Vassilis III, as king of the Pepidish Saxenders in 2876 BL, and eventually came to rule an area extending from the eastern border of Saxbury to the Cartgeo River. At the Battle of Helicos he established military dominance over the rump state of the fragmenting East Kingdom of the Saxenders, establishing the Empire of the Saxenders.
Background
Aggelos was the first son of Vassilis III, a Vassilian king of the Pepidish Saxenders, and Dynamene. Supposedly, the king was descended from the legendary Pythagorus.
Numerous small Saxendish petty kingdoms existed during the early 3rd millennium BL.
