Eric XII Olaf (Eric Lorens Eirikr; October 21, 1679 – July 9, 1744) was King of Emerstari and Emperor of the Emerstarian Empire from October 2, 1718, until his death in 1744. He was concurrently the King of Soumland and Canaria as well as prince-elector of Thössenland in the Holy Eurevien Empire, Duke of Deischtien and Schvauner, and the Marquess of Hüllen.
Eric was born in the Duchy of Uppsalle within Emerstari and inherited the lands of Thössenland, Deischtien, and Schvauner from his father and uncles. A succession of European wars expanded his Rhenish domains to Hüllen. At the age of 39, after the death of the wife of former King Karl IV Lorens, Queen Annette I Maria, Eric ascended the Emerstarian throne, restoring the House of Eric's rule.
During Eric's reign, the power of the monarchy began to diminish and Emerstari began a transition to the modern system of presidential government. Eric died of cardiac arrest en route to the Soumian capital, Helsingfors.
