Here it is! My baby that I spent all afternoon cooking up. Let me know if you think Brizia and your country should be aligned or would be friendly with each other. Also- hit me up about a betrothal!

[INDENT]Hair: Naturally curly, Violante's hair juts barely past her shoulders. Her bangs are shaggy, and they're parted to side. Her hairstyles are often creative although usually not too involved. The most complicated it gets it when she decides to braid her hair and needs three million bobby pins to hold her hair in the braid.[/INDENT]
[INDENT]Height: 5'7'' [/INDENT]
[INDENT]Style: As the palace's resident thrifter and aesthetic queen, Vi is often found in a barrage of colors, never abel to stick to one look. At the very least, her style can be defined as '80s/'90s, indie/bedroom popstar chic (She can do a perfect impression of Halsey's voice, as a side note. It's her party trick). Te is a fan of geometric shapes, color-blocking, and layering. She's often seen in casual clothes, including high-waisted jeans, cargo pants, band tees, and her lucky golf sweater (although she hates golf). Her makeup consists of colorful eyeliner and outlandish amounts of blush. You will rarely find Vi in anything appropriate for a formal or even casual occasion. At balls, she can be found in something short that probably belongs in a Brizia nightclub rather than at a dinner with the Senate.[/INDENT]
[INDENT]Etc: Violante has multiple tattoos, including a picture of a house surrounded by trees on her wrist. Her ears and nose are pierced, and her ears are often weighed down by statement piece earrings.[/INDENT]

[INDENT]Growing up in the breezy, calm Brizia, a tiny island off the coast of Italy (You know the toe of The Boot? Just look a little past that and you'll find Brizia), Violante was always free to be who wanted to be. Well, more accurately, she insisted upon it. Inspired by a lot of the films that discussed the importance of existentialism coming out in Brizia when she was growing up, she insisted upon her individuality. No one was going to tell her that life wasn't meant to be lived for herself. Although she understands her role as future Queen, Vi has an entire list of how she wants to change her tiny country for the better. As a very convincing and intoxicating person, she believes that she can use her charm and stubbornness to convince the Senate to adopt her rulings.[/INDENT]
[INDENT]Since Violante had little problems growing up, other than the weird bullying she received from primary until high school, she's fairly light-hearted. Even when her brother died in combat and her mother divorced the King. Vi gets through life with her self-relient attitude and her ability to make herself laugh when others fail. That being said, she has a mean streak of judging others. Although Te will never tell anyone except when they piss her off, she's an incredible sense of character, yet she usually sees herself above others who aren't as free form and blunt as she is. [/INDENT]
[INDENT]Given the smallness of Brizia and that their main export is fish and poultry, Violante has always cared about the environment. Her country is mildly conservative, with only her generation encouraging radical change culturally and economically. Passionate about her beliefs and her love for her country, Vio refuses to take no for an answer. As a public activist, she can be found at the Brizia Protection Foundation, an organization that she founded that supports a plethora of public policy and cultural issues. Being gay, she knows how older people react to her sexuality, and she actively works to change the perception of the LGBTQ+ community. Additionally, she's a huge proponent of normalizing mental health, considering she's suffered from depression since she was thirteen, greener solutions, and welfare programs that help bridge the intense economical gap between the people of her country (because of this, Vio can be seen to live simply and insist upon earning everything for herself, other than her home. She can been found to work a part-time job at the campus library and she pays for her college courses with a loan)[/INDENT]

――――――――――[/color] [INDENT]Her older brother, Perseo Michelangelo Emilio, was the crowned prince prior to his voluntary service in Brizia's military. Persi, as Vi called him, went against her and her parent's wishes (surprisingly, she agreed with them for once). He went anyways, giving up his crown in favor of serving his country. He stayed long enough to see Te crowned and died from an IED two years later. Violante was thirteen. This put an obvious strain on her parents' marriage, resulting in her mother leaving, claiming to "never having liked palace life." She left Vi with only a hug, saying she'd visit. Another year, and the former Queen Chiara Crescenzia Camilla Cerminara still hadn't visited her rebellious, grieving daughter. Violante didn't find out about her mother's engagement until Attención!, Brizia's gossip magazine, reported on it. Needless to say, Vi was angry, and she expressed this inwardly. She's hyper-insecure and oftens a lot of time commenting to herself about how annoying she is. How loud she is. Essentially, the ways in which she could think of why her mother hated her enough to leave like that.[/INDENT]
[INDENT] King Leonozio Teodoto Respicio Illardi of Brizia has been close to Vi since she was fourteen. The pair have always been connected, often times more friends than parent/daughter, but once her mother left, the two relied on each other for support. It was already difficult to comprehend the death of Persi, the suddenness of it, and Chiara's inability to connect, to talk to them about what's going on, hurt them both. It felt as though, even though they're a literal royal family, they were no longer on the former queen's radar. Rejection is a bitch, but it hurts more when you're a family. As Vi has gotten older, her father has encouraged her silliness, her outlandishness, and her un-princess-like behavior. According to him, it'll make her a better ruler, with a propensity to actually do some good.[/INDENT]
[INDENT]As a kid, Violante was never liked. She always stood out, like a sore thumb, and was always known to stand on a soap-box and defend others, even as kid. She could be overly honest, and most of the kids at her public school didn't appreciate this. Although Violante would never realize this, she was intimidating. Being a princess is already envy-invoking enough, but she wouldn't just go with the flow. Vi made a point to stand out, and although she's not as intense or annoying about it now, she still hates herself for being so insist upon being unlike others. After having the ultimate emo-phase when she was a tween (If you saw her princess crowning, you'd see that her hair was dyed red and she smudged black around her eyes), Violante started to make friends in high school. As her public school classmates grew older, some kids realized the authenticity of Vio and she made some of her closest friends outside of the royal world. Leonia and Stiliano, her best friends, have been there for her when it comes to the drama of her mother and the impending doom she feels will happen once she's crowned.[/INDENT]
[INDENT]Currently attending university, Violante hopes to be well-verse in her country's law, though she doesn't want to have a law degree. She is double majoring in Philosophy and Justice Studies while also learning legislation from her father on weekends. When she isn't losing her mind over homework and her part-time job, she's usually organizing the next event for her social change organization or trying to be a good friend.[/INDENT]

――――――――――[/color] [INDENT][i]King Leonozio Teodoto Respicio Illardi of Brizia[/i][/INDENT]
[INDENT]Age 56, King Leonozio has ruled over Brizia since he was nineteen. Always encouraging of change for the better, Leonozio has almost changed the entire makeup of Brizia in his forty years of rule. Because of him, his mother's conservative rules, such as the illegalization of homosexuality, her prohibition of alcohol, despite it being one of Brizia's highest-grossing exports, and her defunding of Brizia's environmental research coalition, have been reversed. Still, the country has always been somewhat against these changes, even if the majority of the country is centrist. Still, Leonozio has encouraged his daughter to strike out against the naysayers and those who fight change.[/INDENT]

[INDENT][i](Formerly Queen) Chiara Crescenzia Camilla Cerminara[/i][/INDENT]
[INDENT]Prior to her shocking divorce from Leonozio (the first royal divorce for Brizia), Queen Chiara was the yang to King Leonozio's yin. She ruled beside him, always designing and encouraging change at a slower rate than what her husband wanted. She didn't disagree with him, but she, like the rest of the country, didn't want things to evolve so quickly. According to her, things weren't broken (even though gang activity was up 50% since the prohibition of 1920 and violence against people of the LGBTQ+ community was at an all-time high when Leonozio took reign in 1980). This led to a lot of tension between the two, but the couple remained fully in love until the death of their son.[/INDENT]

[INDENT][i](Formerly Crowned) Prince Perseo Michelangelo Emilio Illardi of Brizia[/i][/INDENT]
[INDENT]Perseo, known as Persi by the palace and his sister, was the crown jewel of Brizia. Although he wasn't seen as politically active as Violante, Prince Perseo was a social media prince and was seen as a sex symbol with a heart of gold for animals. He was the doll of any ribbon-cutting ceremony, a star of several movies, and often seen as one of the most eligible bachelors, though he often caused trouble later on when tabloids caught him partying. However, at age 26, he rescinded his crown and sought to represent his country through war against the neighboring island, Daesha. The two countries had been at war for a century, fighting on and off if one got brazen enough to attack the other. Prince Perseo was killed by an IED upon an attempted invasion of Daesha.[/INDENT]

――――――――――[/color] [INDENT]Prior to the reign of King Leonozio, Brizia was known for its smallness (yet weird relevance considering its exports often go to the richest people of foreign countries), its harsh conservativeness that often resulted in violence, and it's numerous class wars throughout history. Now, the country is being seen as remarkable for its forward-thinking. Brizia's key exports are fish, poultry, and minerals. The country is also used for a lot of environmental studies and chemical engineering advancements.[/INDENT]

[color=DAF7A6][b]☼ ʀᴇᴄᴇɴᴛ/ʀᴇʟᴇᴠᴀɴᴛ ʜɪꜱᴛᴏʀʏ[/b]
――――――――――[/color] 
[INDENT][b]☼ 1880[/b]- The fourth and most recent class war breaks out, putting the Illardi family in power with the promise of more socialist programs. King Vinebaldo, the leader of the revolution, delivers on this for the most part and enacts the Senate, which represents every Burrough of Brizia. The Senate represents their Burrough, and they get to decide if they execute rulings by the royal family and often serve as advisors to the current ruler.[/INDENT]
[INDENT][b]☼ 1912[/b]- Queen Ghita Franca Gisella Eva Illardi (Violenta's grandmother) comes to power. Her key pieces of legislation include the Articles of Prohibition of 1920, the Family Values Act of 1934, and her numerous tax increases. 
 In her time, the third round of war broke out between Brizia and Daesha, resulting in the almost 20,000 men dying (almost a tenth of the country at the time). Because of this, the country's population stands at approximately 400,000, almost double the population from 1930 when the war ended. From then until the end of her reign, she suffered from several deaths, including three of her sons and her husband. Upon her death, her youngest son (which she birthed when she was around 50. During her time, threat of another class war was eminent with the added threat of nuclear power being the only thing that quieted rumors of rebellion.[/INDENT]
[INDENT][b]☼ 1978[/b]- King Leonozio Teodoto Respicio Illardi of Brizia starts his reign. During his time, great change has occurred and peace has, almost, been brought, though Brizia and Daesha still fights from time to time.[/INDENT]
[INDENT][b]☼ 2011[/b]- Prince Perseo leaves the royal family to serve in the military. He dies only two years into his tour. [/INDENT]
[INDENT][b]☼ 2014[/b]- Queen Chiara leaves the royal family upon divorcing King Leonozio. [/INDENT]
