Oro Ibah Aozpi

Oro Ibah Aozpi is the ruler of the nation Novgorod and the incumbent Reichskaiser von Nordreich. He previously served as Reichsmarschall and as a member of the third Triumvirate of Nordreich. Prior to joining the Reich, we has a member of The German Empire. His first encounter with the Volk was on the battlefield during the Continuum-NoV War.

The Triumvirate
Following the apparent disappearance of the Kaiser, Thor, the Reichsregierung voted unanimously to suspend the powers of the Kaiser. In its stead, on the 9th of September, 2013, a Triumvirate was established, formed by TurnipCruncher, the Reichsminister of Foreign Affairs; Latexi, the Reichsminister of the Interior, and Oro Ibah Aozpi, the Reichsmarschall at the time.

For the coming three months, the Triumvirate were to maintain order within the Reich. This plan was interrupted on the 6th of November, when Nordreich entered the Disorder War in defence of Non Grata. The following days saw several of the Reich's enemies, both old and new, join the war against her, leaving her vastly outnumbered and underpowered. With no further allies to call upon, the Reich, under the leadership of Oro Ibah Aozpi, hunkered down and remained on the defensive for the remaining four months of the conflict before surrendering; the last alliance to do so.

In the closing days of the conflict, after sustaining immense casualties the likes of which had not been seen since the Continuum-NoV War, the Triumvirate set about restoring the position and powers of the Kaiser. As Thor had not returned to the fold, it was left to the Reichsregierung to place a new Reichsburgher upon the throne. Oro Ibah Aozpi was to become the first Kaiser following the end of the third Triumvirate.

Ascendancy
On the 20th of February, 2014, Oro Ibah Aozpi announced the re-establishment of the Monarchy with his succession to the throne. With his position as undisputed leader of the Reich firmly cemented, he set about appointing his Kronprinz and arranging the Reichsregierung to his liking. Redneck became the Kronprinz, heir to the throne, followed by the appointment of TurnipCruncher to the newly created position of Reichskanzler, the leader of the Reichsregierung and Ambassador of the Reich. Judson became the Reichsmarschall, Johan Pitka his Stabsoffizier, and Kaiser Hanssen was appointed to maintain the Reichsministry of Foreign Affairs.

Change was not only internal, however, and a mere eight days following the finalisation of the new hierarchy, Nordreich (2nd) signed Ov der Sonne und der Erde, a mutual defence and optional aggression pact with the Terran Empire. This relationship would continue to flourish until the 7th of August of the same year, when the Terran Empire merged into the Reich.

The coming year would be relatively calm within the Reich under the Kaiser, seeing optional defence and aggression treaties forged with both the Global Alliance and Treaty Organization and Doom Squad. This peace would prove to be an omen of the unrest that was to come.
