Maximo Olivar (born Maximo Iuan Olivar-Loupes; 15 August 1707 – 10 July 1765), later known by his regnal name Maximo I, was a Iverican nobleman, military commander, and political leader. He was the leader of the Iverican Reformed Republic who gained office by coup d'etat and revolution during the Decades of Civil Strife. Olivar was an important figure in the expansion of Iverican colonial interests, their subsequent loss, the reform of the Republican system of checks and balances, and the diminishment of Hidalgo influences on the Iverican military.
Olivar's ascension into Iverican leadership forced him to inherit the issues of civil unrest in Iberic colonies in Alharu, Thalassa, and Aurelia. Olivar started several military campaigns to restore order in the colonies and was largely successful. Olivar and his party of reformist officers also launched several campaigns to expand the Iberic colonial dominions.
Olivar remains a relevant figure in the modern politics of the 3rd Republic of Iverica and Neswetej Per-Aten. He is a controversial figure in modern media and politics. The remaining Oliveran Dynasty retains political connections in both countries, though it is legally barred from entering any territory of the Republic of Iverica and by extension, the Federated Commonwealth.

Personal Life
In Literature and Media
Maximo Olivar is the titular protagonist of Gilberto Deisant's play, "I, Maximo!" which was written and performed 2 years after his execution. The premier was held on the site of the Reformist Executions, Campo Dei Marso, on the anniversary of Olivar's death, 10 July 1769. It is infamous as a "cursed" production due to several unfortunate incidents that have been associated with it. Notably, in a Sant Bastien production in 1901, lit torches were distributed to the audience so they could participate as the angry mob in Act III of the play. It is unknown who dropped the torch that set a long box curtain alight.
Maximo Olivar in Atenic Media
The first moving picture showed in Per-Aten was a filmed production of Sesh-Per-Fenkhu Sekhemdjashuh López (Known as Jesus López in the Iberiphone world) "The Twenty-First Dynasty", The Twenty-First Dynasty being the oficial number of the Olivar Dynasty in Ateenic King lists, and a common subriquet for the Iverican rule of the Lower Kingdom of Per-Aten among the Atenic populace. The film began production in 1910, and was produced cocurrently with its sequel: "Ramesses the Unifier". "The Twenty-First Dynasty" is viewed as the culmination major shift in the perception of the Olivar Dynasty in Per-Aten as it reframes the Iverican conquset as an ultimatly benificial event which ended an era of stagnation in Per-Aten and spurred Ramesses XV to modernize his newly reunited kingdom. They both were showed on June 18, 1915 on the centenial of the last battle of the Fifth War of Atenic Unification.
"The Twenty-First Dynasty" is viewed as one of the first historical epics put to film, and as a result the character of Maximo I is one of the most well studied in Atenic cinema. In the mid twentieth century there was an abundace of flims set in the period covering the events covered by "The Twenty-First Dynasty" and "Ramesses the Unifier" causing the Sebayt Per-Sesh's media studies collage to create the subgenres of 'Olivarian Dramas' and 'Olivarian Epics'. By the 1985 the Oliverian hold on the box office fell off steeply until 2013 with the Bi-Centenial aproching a surge of so-called Neo-Oliverians got produced. To this day the highest grossing opening day in Atenic Cinema is the June 18, 2015 opening of "Twenty-frist" a modern retelling of the reign of Maximo Olivar.
