Ellen II (Ellen Mary Alexandra; 19 February 1942 - 30 March 2002) was the Queen of Glytter from 1926 until her death in 2002.
She was born to Mary, Princes of Ghailles (later Mary IV) during the reign of her grandfather, James IV. Upon her mother's ascension to the throne, she became Princess of Ghailles and Duchess of Snarksburgh in 1907. The Princess Ellen studied briefly at the University of Spálgleann and enlisted in the Glytteronian Army as a mechanic at the age of eighteen. She is one of the few female monarchs in recent history to serve in the armed forces, the other being Isabela of Lusitana. When her mother became sick in 1926, she left the Army. Queen Mary IV died of cancer in 1926, and Ellen ascended to the throne as Ellen II on 13 December 1926 at the age of 19.
Soon into her reign, the Estmerish navy occupied Glytter under an agreement made with the Ua Buachalla Government. The occupation began on 10 March 1927, just over two weeks before her coronation, and was entirely peaceful. However, nearly a year later the Estmerish military transferred the occupation to that of the Federation of Asteria, which would last until the end of the war in February of 1935. Unlike the occupation by Estermish forces, the Asterian occupation was marred by serve violence and resulted in the Quasi-War. Ellen II was looked to as a calming force throughout the duration of the conflict and was revered because of her poise.
Ellen married Prince Philippe of Sartoux in 1930, during the Occupation. In comparison to other royal weddings, it was a modest occasion. It was decided personally by the Queen that her wedding was "not to be extravagant, as my people are suffering greatly". The couple had four children, the eldest of which was Prince Elton, who she would chose as her successor. She was the last monarch from the House of MacIconnich, as it was decided that her children would belong to the cadet House of MacIconnich-Xanthopoulos.
Her reign saw the appointment of the first Liberty and Social Democratic governments. It also saw two violent insurrections during the 1960s and 70s; the Thistle Insurrection and Na Trioblóidí. She was on the throne longer than the entire duration of the Phoney War and was considered a major advocate of peace and humanitarian efforts, working closely with the International White Cross. After serving as Queen for a record 76 years, Ellen died in 2002 and was succeeded by her eldest child, Elton II. She is affectionately known as Ellen the Beloved in Glytter.
