Kaisers: Verion I, Dominus, Verion II |
Kaiser Verion I was the regnal name of Jacob Darylion-Verion, during his reign as Kaiser of Shireroth. He ascended to the Imperial throne in 5719. Verion ruled during a time of inactivity and turmoil but nonetheless managed to make an impact upon the Imperial Republic. He ruled according to the principles of what was later called Verionism in his honour, and tried to unify the nation, whilst limiting the Imperial Government.
Contents
Assumption
Jacob Darylion-Verion had served as steward to Kaiser Ayreon III, as well as Minister of Military Affairs and was considered the most senior member of Kaiser Ayreon's government. His appointment as Kaiser in 5719 did not come as a suprise, since he had made a name for himself as a strong and efficient ruler, most notably during the Neridia affair, during which he relieved the impoverished and inactive province of Neridia of its Imperial Statehood.
Policy
Kaiser
Verion I ruled according to the principles of his own political philosophy, later called Verionism, which sought to streamline and centralise government, whilst on the other hand limiting interference in the lives of the peopls. As an example of this, Verion took away the government's right to tax its citizens, something later Kaisers quickly reversed. As a former MoMA, Verion also showed keen interest in Shireroth's military, dramatically expanding a shady secret intelligence called S.W.O.R.D. (Shireroth's Warriors for Observation, Retribution and Deterrence), which he founded during his time as minister.
Verion abdicated in 5768 without naming an heir, allowing the Landsraad to elect his successor.
Notable achievements
Important changes decreed by Verion I were:
- The adaptation of the new Charter
- The establishment of S.W.O.R.D. as Shireroth's main intelligence service
- The Decree on Government Restructuring
- The Verion Economic Reforms
Verionsput, in Shirekeep, was named in honour of the Kaiser.
