Last monarch of the Highland Kingdom of Excalbia

King Ragarth followed his father, King Olof III to the throne of Citadel Excalbia in 1789. His reign saw the expansion of a lowland confederation that was fueled by a conversion to Christianity and supported by armed traders from North America. After years of warfare, Ragarth made peace with the lowlanders near the end of his reign. His son and heir, Thorvald, converted to Christianity and took the name Joshua. After marrying the daughter of the one of the North American missionaries, Joshua proclaimed the Holy Empire of Excalbia on Christmas Day in 1809.
