Emperor Mjen (Shinasthana: 文皇帝, mjen-gwang-têgh; Feb. 23, 1820 – Mar. 22, 1885) reigned as Emperor of Themiclesia between Jun. 1, 1864 – Mar. 22, 1885. He was the fourth of five legitimate sons of Emperor Ng'jarh and inherited the throne from his childless brother, Emperor Tjang; reigning for just over 20 years, he was succeeded by his second legitimate son, Emperor Goi. His reign is remembered as a stable and prosperous one. The monarchy relegated to political passivity during the first half of the century, he actively sought to re-establish the monarchy in administration, but affirming principles of parliamentary democracy. While remembered as a political reformer, he was dismissive of military development and social change, casting him as an arch-conservative in some senses. Though royal tradition confining each family member to their own courtiers began to wane during his reign, he sought to reinforce it, seeing them as imperative and natural to the maintenance of the royal family's supremacy and distinctiveness.
