==Early life==


Nearly all 19th-century Atmoran historians made Alexandra into a romantic model of a glorified warrior, praising her leadership, administrative efficiency, devotion to duty and success in uniting the Atmoran states into a single great power. Historian Leopold van Pappenheim was unstinting in his praise of Alexandra's "Heroic life, inspired by great ideas, filled with feats of arms ... immortalized by the unification of the Atmoran states." Alexandra remains as an admired historical figure in the [[Atmoran Empire]] as a great general, enlightened monarch, and as the unifying force for the states.

Under the leadership of Alexandra and her Chancellor Christoph Westerling van Ravenswoud, Lieseltania achieved the unification of Atmora and the establishment of the Atmoran Confederation. The Atmorans gave her the epithet of Mother of the Atmorans (Dutch: Moeder des Atmoraners).
