Alexandra (Alexandra Wilhelmina Elise Victoria; 5 May 1779 – 25 October 1850), also known as Alexandra the Great (Alexandra de Grote), of the House of Wolf was Queen of Lieseltania and Vosha from 2 January 1794 and the first High Queen of Atmora from 4 May 1812 to her death in 25 October 1850, the first Head of State of a united Atmora. 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).
The eldest daughter of King Frederick III of Lieseltania and Princess Charlotte of Anhalt-Rosslau, Alexandra was related to the Queen of Brunswick, Grand Duke of Rothenburg, and the Grand Duchess and Guldenhof. Before her accession to the throne, she served as heiress apparent and held the title of Princess of Wolf, until the unexpected death of her father Frederick III and succeeded him as the Queen of Lieseltania the age of 15. For the first 6 years of Alexandra's reign her mother Queen Charlotte the Queen Mother served as Queen regent.
Her reign of 56 years and nine months was longer than of any of her predecessors, and is known as the Alexandrian Era. It was a period of industrial, cultural, political, scientific, and military change within the Atmoran states, and was marked by a great unification of the Atmoran States. Under her reign Lieseltania had greatly increased its territories and became a regional hegemon in Halkeginia under her rule.
