King Erich I (Born Erich Karlson Herbert Leftenson) is the current King of North Bardonia and Lord Defender of the Faith of North Bardonia reigning since the Second of September 2019
Erich was born in Carthiada General Women’s Hospital in 1998 to Heir-Presumptive to the Throne of North Bardonia Edmund and his wife Elina Leftenson. Erich was a part of the Royal House of Leftenson which itself was a pretender to the throne with the Monarchy of North Bardonia having been abolished in 1933. He would study first at Chiyoda International School in Tayichi from 2008 to 2016 where at 16 he completed his DNKS exams the the North Bardonian government required, he passed and would study History & Economics at the University of Carthiada from 2016 to 2018 where upon he would take the responsibility of the ruling North Bardonia after the monarchist coup organized by loyalists and his Grandfather who would act as regent and advisor to Erich. He is currently engaged to marry the Empress of Biggonia in March of Next year
So far the Reign of Erich has remained steady and popular with very little protest against his rule, currently the King is working hard on extending the royal treasury to fixing the economy which has been very volatile for the last two decades.
Early Life & Family
Born on February 28th Erich was born just before the turn of the century and the millennia, his parents Elina and Edmund Leftenson were the descendants of King Edvark I and Prince Erich Leftenson (his namesake). His birth was uneventful alongside the first three years of his life with the exception of a move from Carthiada to Cordo Fa in Lughansk when he was two. When he was three his mother died after being involved in a car accident leading to his family move to Tayichi (where there was a sizable North Bardonia population loyal to the crown). When he was four, he would go to a preschool operated by the Old Faith in Shuto.
Much of his close family, including his cousins, Katryn & Clarrisa studied together and lived close to each other in Shuto. As a family they were close and volunteered at the local Old Faith Temple in Shuto as well as the Ariana Leftenson Association. During this time prior to the continuation of his education in Tayichi he and his father conducted a trip back to North Bardonia to visit with Erichs Grandfather, Malros, this trip happened in 2007 and he would do another with his father in 2011.
In 2012 another tragedy struck the Erich when his father, visiting North Bardonia for business, got swept up in the Labour Day Riots which had consumed much of Carthida and he, alongside dozens of others were murdered in the Labour Day Shooting. This disasterous event left Erich in the care of his Aunt and Uncle who were both with Erich in Tayichi. In 2014 Erich's Aunt would pass away after a battle with cancer.
Education
Much of Erichs education would come in the place of a spot at the Chiyoda International School, a prestigious international school in Shuto were Erich would study at its Senior School from 2008 to 2016 where he would take DNKS (The Tayichi University Qualification) where he'd gain the necessary grades to study History & Economics at the most prestigious and the oldest University in North Bardonia, the University of Carthiada.
During his time at Chiyoda, he would become a fluent speaker of Tayichian and would become a moderately advanced speaker of Hansan & Biggonian. Much of his time would be focused in Tayichi on the study of history and business which Erich proved to be more then competent at.
Once Graduating Chiyoda Erich would study History & Economics at the University of Carthiada Hampstead College of History & the University of Carthiada Hampstead Business & Economics Campus from 2016 to 2018 before completing his degrees from Private Tutors at the Royal Palace as king.
