Pinaria is the second oldest child of Michael Pinarius and Perateian noblewoman Christina Sarantene. She was educated at Caelimontium Sancta Sophia, and later earned a degree from Transtiberim College, Haenna in 1985. Pinaria rose to prominence when she became linked to then Jacobus, Prince of Youth during secondary school and again following university.

Stephania became empress following her husband's elevation to junior emperor in July 1993 and was granted the title of Augusta.

Early Life and education

Stephania was born on 8 March 1965 to Michael Pinarius and Perateian noblewoman Christina Sarantene, at St Maria National Hospital in Velia, Castellum ab Alba. She had six siblings: Michael, Georgia, Andreas, Anna, Constantine, and Sophia. At the time of her birth, her father was a prominent Castellum-based attorney and Senator. She is also a descendant of Theophylactus I Anicius and Nathan II of Ghant by way of her grandmother Maria of Keld.

She was primarily raised in Cularo, at her family's ancestral estate, though she frequently spent time in Castellum due to her father's senate career. She was eventually enrolled at Lyceum Sanctus Michaelis, in Castellum, where she would remain for primary school. It was at Lyceum Sanctus Michaelis that she met her future husband then Jacobus, Prince of Youth. Stephania later attended Caelimontium Sancta Sophia for secondary school, earning her bac in 1982. Stephania attended Transtiberim College, Haenna, where she studied education and public policy. While at Transtiberim College, Stephania was a member of the equestrian and debate clubs.

While at Sancte Michaelis, Stephania first met her future husband Jacobus, Prince of Youth – later Emperor Jacobus VI Augustus. After earning her degree from Transtiberim College, Stephania was a primary school teacher in Ostia from 1985 until her marriage in 1987.

Marriage to Jacobus VI Augustus

Official imperial portrait, 1991.

Stephania first met Jacobus, Prince of Youth in 1978, during primary school, where classmates stated that the two quickly became friends and were soon inseparable. According to courtiers, Stephania's father was displeased by this development. According to a former colleague at Pinarius' former law firm, "he doesn't want his daughter around [Prince Jacobus];" her father never publicly confirmed this, and later in 1987 had said that "[Prince Jacobus] is like a son to me".

Her first public appearance with Jacobus was in 1979 where she accompanied him to Ludi Circenses. She was later invited to attend the state dinner for the royal visit of John VII of Garza in November 1979. The press reported that Stephania was courting Prince Jacobus from 1979 until 1981, though Imperial Offices never confirmed the reports. Those close to Stephania claim that her relationship with Prince Jacobus ended abruptly in fall 1981 after each he began his education at Academia Militaris Olympia. Stephania had a brief, public courtship with [TBD] in 1982.

In 1985, the Latin Imperial Family officially announced a courtship between Prince Jacobus and Stephania. The pair reconnected in 1985 at the Transvectio Equitum festival. Stephania continued her relationship with Jacobus through 1985 and 1986, with the Imperial Family announcing the engagement of Jacobus and Stephania on 22 October 1986.

Wedding

Stephania became engaged to Prince Jacobus on 22 October 1986. Following the engagement, Stephania continued to reside in Ostia where she was a school teacher. However, she stepped down from her position in January 1987, and took up residence at Velia House with Prince Jacobus. This move was highly controversial as the couple was not yet married; however, though they lived together throughout their engagement.

Stephania and Prince Jacobus were married on 12 June 1987 at Sancta Sapientia in Castellum, at a ceremony attended by Latin royalty, lords, and other prominent figures from around the world. She became Princess of Youth upon marrying Jacobus. A secondary wedding ceremony was held at Hagia Euergetou, in Leonople, after which she became Despotissa of Levedos.

Children

Stephania and Jacobus resided at Velia House until 1989, when Jacobus was appointed Mesazon of Perateia, where he served as imperial viceroy. Stephania gave birth to the couple's first child, Maria, on 3 July 1990. Their second child, and future emperor, Constantine, was born on 5 January 1993. Stephania's third and final child, Selene was born on 22 December 1996.
