Princess Polyxena of Latium (Vopisca Claudia Polyxena Iustina Diana; b. 30 December 2000), commonly known as Princess Poly, is the second eldest child of Jason VI Augustus and Marsella Atmos and the twin sister of Prince Peter. She is currently tenth in line to the Latin throne.

Early Life and Education

Polyxena was born on 30 August 2000 at Palace of Augustus in Castellum to Latin Emperor Jason VI Augustus and his third wife Marsella Atmos. She was born twenty minutes after her twin brother, Peter. She and Peter were baptized at Sancta Sapientia by Patriarch of Alba Flavius Hostillius on 30 January 2001. There was some controversy regarding the birth of Poly and her twin brother, as they were only born 8 months after her parent's marriage in April 2000. In the official announcement released by Imperial Offices on the RAL, it was stated that Poly and her brother were delivered nearly three weeks prior to Empress Marsella's due date in the end of September.

Education

Poly attended the Lyceum Sanctus Michaelis for secondary education, earning her bac in 2017. On her gap year, she visited domestic and foreign universities including the colleges of the University of Haenna, the University of Ghish, Imperial University of Lyncanestria, Imperial University at Saint-Nazaire, and the University of Ascanium.

In fall 2019, Poly enrolled at Adrianople College, Haenna.

Personal Life

Poly's personal life has largely been kept out of the public eye, unlike many of her older siblings. In early 2018, there were rumors that she began courting an unidentified individual. There has been no comment from the Imperials Offices on the veracity of this rumor.

For ceremonial and formal purposes, all children of the Monarch - with exception to the heir apparent - are entitled to the rank of "prince" or "princess" after their Christian name followed by the territorial designation "of Latium." As such, Poly is styled as "Princess Polyxena of Latium". Any territorial designations are normally discarded by females upon their marriage.
