Sándor Roskoványi de Berettyóújfalu et Tótkomlós (14 September 1769 – 12 February 1835) was an Aurucolian political and military leader that reigned as the n-th Emperor of Aurucolia. Reigning as Sandor I, he transformed Aurucolia into a regional power that disrupted the status quo in Scandinavia and Zumeria.

Sandor was born to minor noble family in Veszprém. At the age of 8, he moved to Nyireghaz, where he enrolled in its military academy. He supported the liberal Domonokians during the Csatarian War, where he fought as an officer in the Hussars of the Holy Imperial Guard.

Early life

Early military career

Sandor in the Hussars of the Holy Imperial Guard

Sandor enlisted in the 3rd Regiment of the Hussars of the Holy Imperial Guard after graduating from the Academy. During the Csatarian War, he led a decisive cavalry charge during the Battle of Törökdány, in which he broke the Csatarian center.

Grand Prince-Elector

Sandor, intrigued with politics, was appointed a member of Domonokos's court.

After instability within the Prince-Electoral College climaxed, Domonokos decided to forcibly remove several members from the college under the advice of Sandor. This event would become known as the 1 September Coup.

Afterwards, Domonokos promoted Sandor to the newly-created position of Grand Prince-Elector, whereupon his vote is worth seven individual votes.

Holy Aurucolian Emperor

Domonokos and his son were assassinated by Csatarian loyalists on 1 April 1803.

On 13 April 1803, on his word, Sandor was proclaimed Holy Aurucolian Emperor.

Sandoric Wars

After being crowned King of Bahatstva as a consequence of the ousting of Lyubomyr VI, Scandinavia and Zemuria were in uproar. This lead to the War of the Third Coalition.
