Cardinal Sébastien Parthon de Von
Odo Morel, Comte de Le Chay
Alesso Ziani

Alesso Ziani is a favourite and childhood tutor of the Empress, a pious and learned man. He eventually loses favour due to her husband, Francois de Telois, who is jealous of his influence and also leads a rival faction. He finds new purpose as a leading figure in the counter-reformation, before being assassinated by Amendist nobles

Sébastien Parthon de Von is a Gaullican Cardinal of Caldian heritage who distinguishes himself as a foreign policy expert. He is the rival of Odo Morel, and an ally of Alesso Ziani. His foreign policy is pragmatic, but suffers in the later years from a strong pro-Catholic and counter-reformation stance which alienates potential allies and sees Gaullica over-extend its resources and manpower.

Odo Morel, later the Comte de Le Chay, is a man of low birth who rises through the ranks and becomes ones of Anne's chief ministers. He overhauls the bureaucracy and is considered the father of the Gaullican civil service and modern senate, which he uses to great effect to centralise the state and reinforce the monarch's authority. A moderate, he is an opponent of the counter-reformation, and aids Amendists and Ezekielans emigrate to the New World. Historians are torn on whether he was Amendist, Ezekielan, or simply had sympathies or tolerance for their movement. He is the only one of the three to survive into Francois I's reign, who being a staunch Catholic and counter-reformationist, promptly banishes him to serve as a governor in Satucin, where he resides for six years until his death in ????.

- Anne's reign is one of rising religious conflict in Gaullica, as Amendism takes hold and Ezekielan pockets begin to reveal themselves and, alarmingly to the court, spread.
- But it is also one of great wealth for Gaullica as the New World is discovered and the state is overhauled by Cardinal Parthon de Von and Odo Morel. - Anne is considered one of Gaullica's greatest underrated monarchs. Her careful administration of her court and treasury, balanced reliance on a coterie of reliable chief ministers, and centralisation of the state created the conditions for the Telois dynasty to rule Gaullica at its apex. Her religious tolerance, undone by her son Francois I, is celebrated in modern Gaullica.
- She overcomes an attempted coup during her early reign seeking to put her cousin on the throne. She marches through Verlois with her sons to a central plaza where rebellious nobles have gathered and rallies the people of Verlois to expel them from the city. A very brief regional civil war occurs in which they are crushed, allowing her and her chief ministers to begin the process of crushing the power of the nobility.
- Begins construction of the Chateau de Vélines, which becomes the main royal residence of the Gaullican monarchs. (until it is replaced by a !Versailles? or is it Versailles itself?
