Anulā (Terasi:විජාලන්යා ගේ නිවසේ රවීන්ගේ සහ ආර්න්ගේ දියණිය අනුලා, tr; Vijālanyā gē nivasē Ravīngē saha ārngē diyaṇiya Anulā; 5 July 1926 - 7 March 1968) was the last queen of the Royal Kingdom of Ankat and the fifth queen of the country. She ruled from 1950 after her father's death until her death in 1968 during the Ankati Revolution at the outbreak of the Ankati Civil War. Her reign has been subject to many historical debates as documents from her time as queen have largely been destroyed during the sack of the Royal palace shortly after her death. The current government of the Socialist Republic of Ankat has stated and procured documents stating that Queen Anula instigated multiple instances of human rights abuses, with the 1967 Tan Mar Massacre, a widely documented incident between royal forces and protestors in Tan Mar in the months leading up to the revolution being the most widely documented. Despite evidence shown by the socialist government, many commentators insist that the Tan Mar massacre was conducted by overzealous military commanders operating without orders and that other accusations by the socialist government are unfounded, with some pieces of evidence being exposed as fraudulent.
In her life she was often referred to as a modernising influence for the country, overseeing overhauls within the nations cities that helped turn Nilagne Naegima, the nations capital, into a flourishing metropolis for the region by the turn of the century and her influences can still be felt today in the modern artwork seen throughout the country. She followed lessons of her father in cultivating relations with Mutul, Pulau Keramat and select nations both in the region and in Belisaria, where she often vacationed and had purchased a summer house in XXXX. She was the only child of her father, Ravin III, and as the crown princess had ownership of the Saśrīka Kanda, or Flourishing Hill. A large estate in the Simhaya mountains.
Following the revolution her legacy has been subject to debate and differences of opinion steeping into the viewers bias toward the socialist movement or to the monarchist cause. For the socialists she is viewed as a tyrannical leader who, they say, directly ordered masses of executions and ordered her troops to conduct the 1967 Tan Mar Massacre and personally ordered the execution of Vimukthi Ratnam, the leader of the Torists at the outset of the revolution. To the monarchists she is seen as a queen who, despite doing great things for her people was ultimately a victim of overzealous commanders who covered up their mistakes until, ultimately, the Torists led the revolution against her. Anulā and her eldest son, Prince Nimal, were killed when members of the Kaha Mal sacked the Royal Palace during the First Battle of Nilagne Naegima at the start of the Ankati Civil War. Senior members of her Royal Guard fled the palace with her remaining children, although with the palace being burnt down and a socialist victory in the civil war, the monarchy effectively ended with Anulā's death.
