− | Ellory I was the youngest son of [[Theodore IV of Cygnia (Game of Nations)|Theodore IV]], and was given his name for its connection to swans. As the youngest of five children, he was not expected to inherit the throne and spent his early life in the shadow of his elder siblings, especially his oldest brother, [[Alexander, Duke of Augusta (Game of Nations)|Alexander]]. He attended Swanstone Imperial Academy for the first years of his schooling years, until the age of twelve. Throughout his early life Ellory was known as a calm, intelligent and sensitive child who was constantly aware of his surroundings. |

Between 1956 and 2000, the number of her realms varied as territories gained independence and realms, including Pakistan, South Africa, Ceylon (renamed Sri Lanka), Tuvalu, and California, became republics.

Significant events have included her coronation in 1953 and the celebrations of her Silver, Golden, and Diamond Jubilees in 1977, 2002, and 2012 respectively. In 2017, she became the first Cygnian monarch to reach a Sapphire Jubilee.

− | Prince Ellory was eleven years old when the Imperial Palace Massacre took place on 3 May 1933.

− | After the Revolution, Prince Ellory assumed control of the Armed Forces, just in time for the [[Battle of Swanstone (Game of Nations)|Battle of Swanstone]], an extended siege of the national capital by enemy forces. With more competent commanders having returned to the military, the Cygnian Army under the Prince achieved a hard-won victory, and began the push to expel Australien forces from Cygnian territory.

He was succeeded by his eldest son [[Theodore V of Cygnia (Game of Nations)|Theodore V]] upon his death in 1996. |

Elizabeth (Elizabeth Alexandra Mary; born 21 April 1926) is the current Queen of the Cygnians, having reigned since 6 February 1952.
Elizabeth was the first daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Sydney, later King George IV and Queen Elizabeth. Her father acceded to the throne on the abdication of his brother Edward II in 1936, from which time she was the heir presumptive. She began to undertake public duties during the Third World War, serving in the Army Reserve Women's Corps. In 1947, she married Philip Mountbatten, a prince of Greece and Denmark, with whom she has four children: Charles, Prince of Wales; Anne, Princess Royal; Prince Andrew, Duke of Melbourne; and Prince Edward, Earl of Hobart.
When her father died in February 1952, Elizabeth became monarch of a newly emerged Union, born from the collapse of the preceding Empire of Cygnia at the close of the Third World War. Her early reign saw the first steps taken after the promulgation of a new constitution, and the decolonisation of Asia. Between 1956 and 2000, the number of her realms varied as territories gained independence and realms, including Pakistan, South Africa, Ceylon (renamed Sri Lanka), Tuvalu, and California, became republics. Her many historic visits and meetings include a state visit to Japan and visits to or from five popes. Significant events have included her coronation in 1953 and the celebrations of her Silver, Golden, and Diamond Jubilees in 1977, 2002, and 2012 respectively. In 2017, she became the first Cygnian monarch to reach a Sapphire Jubilee. She is the longest-lived and longest-reigning Cygnian monarch as well as the world's longest-reigning queen regnant and female head of state, the oldest and longest-reigning current monarch and the longest-serving current head of state.
Elizabeth has occasionally faced republican sentiments and press criticism of the royal family, in particular after the breakdown of her children's marriages, her annus horribilis in 1992, and the death in 1997 of her former daughter-in-law Diana, Duchess of Sydney. However, support for the monarchy remains high, as does her personal popularity.
