John XIII (Marcus Anicius Probinus Iohnnes Petrus Caesar; 15 March 1845 – 9 June 1925) was Latin Emperor from 1891 to 1925, succeeding his father Theophylactus I Augustus. John was the eldest son of Theophylactus I Augustus and Ghantish noblewoman, Princess Galara of Gaemar.
In 1869, he married Alexandra of Ghant, together they had four children. John was an avid athlete before becoming emperor and was said to have organized football matches on the lawns and gardens of the familial palaces in Castellum and Alexandria. He and his wife, Alexandra, are credited for the introduction of ice hockey into Latium and the first organized hockey tournament in Latium, Copa Glaciei. The death of his eldest son, three grandchildren and youngest daughter in 1921 are said to have caused John to make fewer public and state appearances in the latter years of his reign. He was succeeded by his youngest daughter Joanna.
Early Life
John was born in March 1845 at Anicia familial estate on Insula Ceos to Theophylactus I Augustus and Ghantish noblewoman, Princess Galara of Gaemar. He was the first born of five children, and was raised in Castellum, due to his father's status as heir presumptive to the Latin throne. John was born one year before his father's reign and the only of Emperor Theophylactus's children not to have the distinction of "Born in the Purple".
