Line 1: Line 1:
The '''Emperor of Metzetta''' is the constitutional monarch and head of state of [[Metzetta]]. The title has supposedly existed since 2333 BC and has been passed down from generation to generation until today, though the early Emperors were almost certainly mythical figures. When a female holds the position of Emperor, she is known as Empress and a new Imperial Dynasty begins, named after her as the matriarch of the house. The Emperor/Empress is addressed as His/Her Imperial Majesty. The Emperor is considered to be the personification of Metzetta and the will of the Gods, and is the central figure around which all history and culture in the country inevitably revolves.

As recounted in the [[Iyagi-seda]], the central text of [[Chulcheo]], Yang-Jo was the first man, born to [[Byeol]], demigod of the stars, and [[Dalrae]], the first woman. Through them all people are supposedly descended from the Gods, but as the firstborn of their 111 children Yang received special treatment as the maker of the law and leader of the people of [[Meseda-jo]]. As decreed by Yang, the title of Emperor was passed down from parent to child over the generations. Arranged marriages between cadet branches of the Imperial family and high-ranking foreigners has always been an important part of Metzettan diplomacy. The early emperors are today accepted by most of the world to be legendary figures who may or may not be based on leaders from around the time they were said to have lived, however for most of recorded history their existence was taken by the natives as fact. Emperors often marry within the Imperial family in an effort to preserve their heavenly bloodline.
