== Early Life == | |||
Adolfo Alexander de Salvador Martínez González was born in the [[Salvador Imperial Palace]] in [[Salvador (city)|Salvador]], [[Salvador (department)|Salvador]], [[Creeperopolis]]. He was the second child of Grand Prince [[Salvador Martínez Ortega]] (1783-1829) and Grand Princess [[María Schuessler González]] (1783-1832). He had five siblings: [[Salvador Martínez Schuessler|Salvador]] (1801-1824), [[Carlos Martínez Schuessler|Carlos]] (1805-1854), [[María Martínez Schuessler|María]] (1807-1889), [[Miguel Martínez Schuessler|Miguel]] (1810-1845) and [[Antonio Martínez Schuessler|Antonio]] (1815-1891). His paternal grandparents were claimants ''Emperor'' [[Salvador III of Creeperopolis|Salvador III]] and Empress [[María Ortega Hernández]]. | |||
In his childhood, Adolfo lived within the Salvador Palace under the de facto house arrest of [[Manuel IV of Creeperopolis|Manuel IV]], his granduncle who defeated his grandfather during the [[War of the Creeperian Succession]]. He, along with the rest of his immediate family, was rarely allowed to leave. His grandmother, María, died under suspicious circumstances in 1806, and her funeral was held in Salvador. Adolfo attended the event, one of the few times he would leave the palace. | |||

From 1810-1822, Adolfo began to take an interest in the military history of Creeperopolis and had aspirations to become a military officer in the [[Creeperian Army|Imperial Army]]. He made a request to become an officer in the army, and after denying him three times prior, Manuel IV reluctantly allowed him to join the army. | |||
Adolfo enrolled in the Imperial Army in 1822 and began as an Lieutenant, the lowest officer rank. Adolfo attended the [[Adolfosburg Military Academy]] where he was educated in military history, tactics, and skills to be promoted to Captain, which he was in 1826 after finishing his education. He was stationed in [[Helam (department)|Helam]], just south of [[San Salvador (department)|San Salvador]]. | |||
Adolfo married the daughter of the Emperor of Castilliano, [[Isabela Hernández Guerrero]], on December 28, 1822, and they had their first child, Prince [[Maximiliano II of Creeperopolis|Maximiliano Adolfo Martínez Hernández]], on June 18, 1824. | |||
Adolfo was promoted to Major in 1829, but he wanted more. He was of royal descent, and he demanded that Manuel IV promote him to a higher rank. Manuel IV submitted and promoted Adolfo to Lieutenant-General in 1830, the fourth highest rank, after General, Field Marshal, and [[Chief Field Marshal (Creeperopolis)|Chief Field Marshal. | |||
As a Lieutenant-General, Adolfo gathered a following of soldiers who supported him, and many wished to establish him on the throne, as Manuel IV was growing old and was becoming an unpopular Emperor. Soldiers in the army began to only take orders from Adolfo by 1833. Manuel IV had enough of what he believed to be a mutiny against his orders, and stripped Adolfo of his rank and kicked him out of the Imperial Army on June 12, 1833. | |||

Upon hearing of the firing of Adolfo, many Generals and Field Marshals grew a bad taste for Manuel IV and defected to the cause of Adolfo. Adolfo had begun to rally up supporters in Helam and began marching his troops to [[San Salvador (city)|San Salvador]] on June 13. | |||
Manuel IV realized that the military is turning against him and orders for Adolfo's arrest, along with the arrest of any supporters. Manuel IV had Field Marshal [[Fidel Amaro Sánchez]] order the troops following Adolfo to arrest him, but the soldiers refused to listen. Amaro was then arrested by Adolfo's soldiers and executed via firing squad, marking the beginning of the [[Revolution of 1833]]. | |||
Upon hearing the death of his most loyal Field Marshall, Manuel IV ordered the palace guards to arm themselves and defend the [[San Salvador Imperial Palace|Imperial Palace of Creeperopolis]] to the death while he and his family hid within the palace preparing for the end, as the entire military has turned against him. | |||
Adolfo recruited the help of [[Miguel Cabañeras Gutiérrez]], a former Field Marshal who fought alongside Salvador III during the War of Succession, to depose Manuel IV from power. Adolfo promoted Miguel to [[Chief Field Marshal (Creeperopolis )|Chief Field Marshal]], signaling to the soldiers and officers that Adolfo is declaring himself as the true Emperor of Creeperopolis. | |||
The soldiers arrived at the Imperial Palace at 12 noon and began to fire at the palace guards defending the palace. The well trained soldiers overwhelmed the outside defenders and infiltrated the palace. Cabañeras declared that no-quarter will be given to the palace guards, leading to very heavy guard fatalities. | |||
The army had secured the palace by 3pm and had Manuel IV and his family captured and arrested. | |||
At 3:30pm, Adolfo had Manuel IV and his heir, Grand Prince [[Manuel Martínez Figueroa]], executed to prevent any claimant from Manuel IV's lineage arising to challenge his own power.
