Prince Constantine

Prince Constantine is the second child of Emperor Andreus I Capet, younger brother of the Despot of New Constantinople, Prince Andreus Capet, and elder brother of Princesses Anna Capet, Theodora Capet, and Zoë Capet. He is a Member of the Pantocratorian Imperial Parliament for the seat of St John Chrystostom, and the Deputy Leader of the Loyal Christian Front.

Prince Constantine has been a member of the Pantocratorian Imperial Parliament since 2001, when he was invited to join the United Christian Front government by then Imperial Chancellor Prince Basil Capet. In 2002 he was elected into the Imperial Cabinet as the Minister for Housing. In 2003 he was promoted into the more senior portfolio of Minister for Public Safety, a portfolio which included the Imperial police, safety regulations, and emergency services, and assisted the Defence portfolio.

In 2004, Prince Constantine encouraged his father, Emperor Andreus I Capet to call new elections for the first time in years. Princess Irene Capet took this is a challenge to her position within the government, and pulled the government apart, forming the Pantocratoria First Party. Prince Basil Capet and Constantine formed the Loyal Christian Front, with Prince Basil the new party's leader and Prince Constantine its deputy.

In a new set of elections in late 2004, Prince Constantine stood for election in the seat of St John Chrystostom's, New Rome, when the Emperor removed all the seats reserved for members of the Imperial Family. He won the seat, and the Loyal Christian Front is now well placed to form a coalition government.
