The '''Monarchy of Atmora''', commonly referred to as the '''Atmoran monarchy''', is the {{wpl|constitutional monarchy}} of the [[Atmora|Atmoran Confederation]]. its protectorates, colonies and Dominions. The {{wpl|monarch}}'s title is "Emperor/Keizer" (male) or "Empress/Keizerin" (female). The current monarch and head of state, [[Henrietta II|Empress Henrietta II]], ascended the throne upon the abdication of her father, [[George V of Atmora|George V]], on 14 January 2062.
The '''Monarchy of Atmora''', is the {{wpl|constitutional monarchy}} and {{wpl|head of state}} of the [[Atmora|Atmoran Confederation]] whose incumbent is titled as the ''High King or Queen of Atmora'' ({{wpl|Dutch language|Dutch}}: ''Hoge Koning(in) van Atmora''). The current monarch and head of state, [[Katherine II|High Queen Katherine II]], ascended the throne upon the abdication of her father, [[William III of Atmora|High King Willem III]], on 26 May 2012.


The monarch and [[Atmoran imperial family|his or her immediate family]] undertake various official, ceremonial, diplomatic and representational duties. As the monarchy is constitutional, the monarch is limited to non-partisan functions such as bestowing honours and appointing the Prime Minister. The monarch is, by tradition, [[Commander-in-Chief of the Atmoran Armed Forces|commander-in-chief of the Atmoran Armed Forces]]. Though the ultimate formal executive authority over the government of Atmora is still by and through the monarch's {{wpl|royal prerogative}}, these powers may only be used according to laws enacted in Parliament and, in practice, within the constraints of convention and {{wpl|precedent}}.
The {{wpl|Constitution of the Netherlands|Constitution of the Atmoran Confederation}} written in the [[Anthold Conference of 1813]] had given the [[Monarchy of Lieseltania|monarch of Lieseltania]] the {{wpl|Bundespräsidium|Presidium of the Confederation}} (''Presidium der Statenbond'') as a symbol of Atmoran unity and personification of the Atmoran state. As the Atmoran Monarch, [[Katherine II]] may at anytime under Section 3 of the Constitution to summon the [[Federal Princes of Atmora]] to the [[Conference of Sovereigns]], to address concerns of the Atmoran Confederation. As was done by [[Katherine I of Atmora|Katherine I]] in the [[Castalien Conference of 1943]], to address the fascist [[Atmoran People's Party|AVU]] [[Chancellor of Atmora|Chancellor]] [[Louwrens van Geuzendam]] government, granting Katherine I emergency powers to curtail constitutional limitations.


Before 2066 the monarch of the Atmora was styled as "High King/Hoge Koning" (male) or "High Queen/Hoge Koningin" (female) and styled as {{wpl|Majesty|His or Her Majesty}} a title held by the King/Queen of Lieseltania.
==Origins==
{{main|Koningsbrief|Proclamation of the Atmoran Confederation}}


Atmora is one of the oldest continuing monarchies in the world. Initially established in the 17th century, as the Kings of Lieseltania, whose institution is sometimes colloquially referred to as the ''{{wpl|Wolf}}'' Crown.
Following the defeat of the [[Asvarre|Kingdom of Asvarre]], [[Gallia (Atmora)|Kingdom of Gallia]], and the [[Huldenberg|Kingdom of Huldenberg]] during the [[Atmoran Unification War]], in which the [[Wolfsche League]] called upon the Princes of Atmora to convene at Pruzhana for the [[1812 Conference of Sovereigns for Rijksverkiezing]], Chancellor Moltke and Queen Alexandra of Lieseltania with the support of the [[Wolfsche League]] and the pro-Lieselania states pushed for Alexandra to be given the title of "High Queen of Atmora" (''Hoge Koningin van Atmora''). The sovereigns of Alsatia, Gallia, Huldenberg, Lippe, Leuven, and Sayn-Ravenstein were represented by a {{wpl|Stadtholder|Rijksstadhouder}} (Lord Lieutenant of the Realm).

The Monarchy of Atmora, is the constitutional monarchy and head of state of the Atmoran Confederation whose incumbent is titled as the High King or Queen of Atmora (Dutch: Hoge Koning(in) van Atmora). The current monarch and head of state, High Queen Katherine II, ascended the throne upon the abdication of her father, High King Willem III, on 26 May 2012.

The Constitution of the Atmoran Confederation written in the Anthold Conference of 1813 had given the monarch of Lieseltania the Presidium of the Confederation (Presidium der Statenbond) as a symbol of Atmoran unity and personification of the Atmoran state. As the Atmoran Monarch, Katherine II may at anytime under Section 3 of the Constitution to summon the Federal Princes of Atmora to the Conference of Sovereigns, to address concerns of the Atmoran Confederation. As was done by Katherine I in the Castalien Conference of 1943, to address the fascist AVU Chancellor Louwrens van Geuzendam government, granting Katherine I emergency powers to curtail constitutional limitations.

Origins

Following the defeat of the Kingdom of Asvarre, Kingdom of Gallia, and the Kingdom of Huldenberg during the Atmoran Unification War, in which the Wolfsche League called upon the Princes of Atmora to convene at Pruzhana for the 1812 Conference of Sovereigns for Rijksverkiezing, Chancellor Moltke and Queen Alexandra of Lieseltania with the support of the Wolfsche League and the pro-Lieselania states pushed for Alexandra to be given the title of "High Queen of Atmora" (Hoge Koningin van Atmora). The sovereigns of Alsatia, Gallia, Huldenberg, Lippe, Leuven, and Sayn-Ravenstein were represented by a Rijksstadhouder (Lord Lieutenant of the Realm).
