Roberta II (Roberta Sofia Susana Pilar de Pavillon; 7 September 1900 - 6 September 1935), was Queen of Paretia from July 1921 to XX 1935. She ruled the nation during the Functionalist Period of the country's history.
Roberta was born in September 1900, during the rule of her father, King Lazarus. She grew up as the middle child of his children, along with her older brother Américo and younger brother Martim. In 1913 Américo would die of influenza, putting the heirship onto her. In 1914, as global tensions and revolution began to increase, Lazarus wanted to make sure she would become a strong leader, he would haver her would be enlisted as a soldier and trained in combat and logistics. Late on she would study political philosophy, particularly early functionalist philosophy and the work of Yuri Nemtsov. Also during this time she would visit Gaullica and meet with their royal family, who she became close with. Historians believe her visits to Gaullica played a major part in her infatuation with Functionalism, she would visit Parti Populaire rallies during her visit. Lazarus was once quoted in saying he was "worried about these new radical parties" and "even more so worried about my own daughters love for them".
In 1921 Roberta would ascend to the throne after the death of King Lazarus. Also during this period she was becoming very invested in Paretian politics. The PNNP led by Carlito Palmeira was beginning to grow in popularity and caught her attention in the 1922 elections. In 1923 she would officially become a member of the PNNP, and became close to Palmeira. She would end up forming the Women's Section of the PNNP and held rallies multiple times with the party, now nicknamed the Novanistas. In 1925 the next elections would see a failure by Palmeira and the PNNP in defeating the Democratic Party of Paretia lead by Xulio Sousa.
