Early Life
Benedict was born 19 June 1961 to Baron Karl von Kemtzurche and Lady Maria Langfort on the family estate in Noble britannian, New Britannian Empire. There he was educated in the field of law by his grandfather, Duke Benedict Attenborough II. When his grandfather died, Benedict was named sole heir to his grandfather's estates.
Conversion
Duke Benedict was raised Protestant and belonged to the Church of New Britannia. At the age of 13 he converted to Catholicism.
New Britannian Civil War
When King James Richard I was assassinated in 2006, Duke Benedict fought along side his distant cousin, King Caleb I against the invader republic. When the war was over, Duke Benedict witnessed the coronation of the new King, and the founding of the New Britannian Empire.
Government
In early 2007, Duke Benedict served as Minister of Defence until he resigned and took on the position of Minister of Foreign Affairs. He was later appointed Minister of Royal Affairs and served until he recieved a grant of land by royal decree and founded the New Britannian Duchy of Cransley.
Prime Minister
After Ant Swain's term as Prime Minister ended, Benedict founded the Royalist Party and ran for Prime Minister. His party won a land-slide victory. Because both the Labour Party and the Conservative Party both received equal amounts of votes, there was no opposition party.
