Messer Era

The Messer Era, or Messer Regime was a period in Human history between the founding of the UEE by Ivar Messer in 2546 and the fall of Linton Messer XI on May 3, 2792. During the period, eleven members of the Messer family ruled as Imperators of the UEE, who are currently seen to have been malevolent dictators who pushed Human expansionism at unethical costs. Many conspiracy theories surround the notoriety of the Messers.

Family Tree
Currently, many relationships between members of the messer family are not known. This is indicated by the ??? symbols, which means that the father of mother of this character is not known. In this case, the successor was placed as her/his son.

It seems that the oldest of the children (regardless of their gender) are appointed to be the heir of the entire realm. One notable exception is the appointment of Samuel Messer VII, who was the youngest son of Illyana Messer. Two emperors (Corsen, Ulysses) were murdered by their children. Corsen murdered his nephew, Messer IV. and also tried to kill his sister Livia. Samuel Messer VIII and Linton Messer XI were also killed in office.
