Princes Engelberta herself was a descendant of the [[House of Cónn]] from her grandmother's maternal line, making their line - beginning with their son, Ronan the Younger (1466-1512) - viewed as having an extra degree of Julian legitimacy. Ronan the Younger's son, Caelian (1490-1540) embraced {{wp|Protestantism}} in accordance with the establishment of the [[Anglei#The_Ænglish_Church|Ænglish Church]] in [[1523]], and the rest of the family followed. Caelian's son, Riordan (1511-1557), consequently, was mostly raised as a Protestant in the tradition of the Ænglish Church. Although the Ænglish Kingdom was destroyed, the Ronanids were nevertheless permitted to remain on their land for the time being. Opportunities would soon present themselves in Urcea, however. Dynastic issues in [[Urcea]] led to a lack of a clear, capable heir [[History_of_Urcea_(1402-1575)#Velucian_renaissance|at the death of King Adrian III]] in [[1546]]. Besides the possibly developmentally disabled Prince Aedanicus, Riordan Ronanid was the next legal successor to the Apostolic Kingship of Urcea as the great-great grandson and direct descendant of King Niall IV. Riordan's Protestant faith led prominent locals to reject his claim, resulting in Riordan seizing [[Urceopolis (City)|Urceopolis]] by force in October 1546. | Princes Engelberta herself was a descendant of the [[House of Cónn]] from her grandmother's maternal line, making their line - beginning with their son, Ronan the Younger (1466-1512) - viewed as having an extra degree of Julian legitimacy.
