Giovanni Montefeltro (born Giovanni Servatus Montefeltro; 9 April 1753 – 18 July 1815) was an Aciriani military and political leader who is known as the First [[Emperor of Aciria]]. He became a prominent military leader after managing to pacify revolts for the Free Republic of Aciria that were unmanageable until his arrival, most notably the Montanaro Revolt of 1781 the Isolano Revolt of 1783. He rose through the military ranks at unprecedented speeds, reaching the rank of Commander before he turned 30. After pacifying the Isolano Revolt on Montvert and returning to Trossera, the First Speaker granted him the title of Marshal of Aciria, which further raised his popularity among the people. | |||
Montefeltro was born in Dalora to a local merchant. Montefeltro was known to be a troublemaker by both his family and his local community, causing his father to send him off to the Accademia della Repubblica in Trossera on his 16th birthday. Originally despising his father for this decision, he quickly adapted to the military lifestyle and even grew to enjoy the discipline of the army. During his first years out of the academy, he served in the personal guard for the First Speaker, which is where he had his firsthand experience with the democracy that was causing the nation to tear at the seams. Not caring much for politics until a peasant revolt in 1774 which caused his family to die, he grew to hate the inefficient democracy. He filed a personal request to both his commanding officer and the First Speaker to transfer him to Dalora to assist the troops in pacifying the region. Pitying the young man, he was transferred to Dalora, where he saw great success against the peasant revolt due to his personal knowledge of the small-scale revolts he had witnessed as a child in Dalora, allowing him to counter their strategies with ease. | |||
Seeing his potential, his commanding officer formally transferred him to the Civil Defense unit, in which he traversed the nation pacifying revolts. As he rose through the ranks, he managed to gain the respect of his subordinates by treating them as people, taking time to know as many of his subordinates as possible.

As he rose through the ranks, he managed to gain the respect of his subordinates by treating them as people, taking time to know as many of his subordinates as possible. With the pacifying effect his unit had across the nation, it didn't take long for Montefeltro to become a near household name, recognised for bringing peace and stability wherever he went. This eventually lead to his 1783 arrest and execution of the First Speaker and his crowning as the Emperor of Aciria. | ||
