6 o'clock Evening News, the Capital of Sumika

Government officials have finally made public the reason for why one of the past Emperor's children had not yet been installed. It is apparent that our beloved past Emperor had concerns over the children closest to the throne and thus imposed several conditions and the opportunity for a posthumous heir naming for his child that proves themselves most capable of fulfilling all conditions. With private lawyers and all the children with a stake to the throne taking several weeks to insure everything was legal, proper and understood, the conditions have been revealed to the public.

'1. The child must be of age. To ensure a level of maturity and grace concerning young desires and ideals.
2. The child must have existing records of initiative and problem solving to the benefit of the crown. To ensure a strong base to grow to meet the stresses and needs of the Empire.
3. The child must have education and experience in economic and military/security matters. To ensure empathy and kindness remain a strength and not a weakness.
4. The child must own and control over 1000 square kilometers of land. To demonstrate an ability to lead, govern, maintain and take care of infrastructure and citizens of the Empire.
5. The child must have a majority positive percentage in opinion poles within their owned territory. A leader needs to make tough decisions, a good leader can make these and maintain trust.
6. The child must have no existing criminal record. The Emperor of Izalith's children have much and gives much, crime is inexcusable.
7. The child's territories must have a slightly positive income at the time of reading this document. Economic management is key to happy, fed and employed people. Growth is good when thought out and implemented at an opportune time.
8. The child must have support of the majority of their siblings who do not follow the aforementioned criteria. Children who can't meet these criteria risk being unable to fill the role to the needs the people require, they are expected to meet this news with grace and continue on their own paths. An Emperor can uplift people and share their dream with them. Your potentially jealous siblings will be your first and final example of this as an uncrowned candidate for the throne.'

Now we've made contact with several analysts and royal enthusiasts to work out who exactly is eligible for the throne and to much surprise, Princess Lillian Dunois I, age 24 is the only child that meets all criteria!
We've heard that despite Prince Gaston Dunois II, aged 29 and Prince Akachi Dunois IX both meeting the criteria as well, several developments happened over the last week.
Prince Gaston had an account of physical assault and drink driving he had exhumed from a rather complicated mass off red tape and paperwork hidden away in a southern rural police station, not to mention several experts claiming his overseeing of his territory's security and economic needs being underwhelming. His books were also confusing and misleading concerning his budgeting and income, which leads the economists who had to judge the books doubtful of their honesty.

Prince Akachi Dunois IX aged 36 meanwhile stated that his interest in continental security and his skills in that field were offset by his difficulty when dealing with civil and infrastructure related issues. Despite being extremely popular in his territories and several surrounding states has decided to back Lillian Dunois I for the crown.

Princess Lillian Dunois I herself has managed to get the support of 6 siblings, meanwhile Princess Gaston II had the support of two. With this information it would seem Princess Lillian Dunois I will be crowned...

*the radio pauses for roughly 2 minutes*

Breaking news, Lillian Dunois is already being coronated at the capital palace. She has made a public declaration as follows:
"I apologize for foregoing such a joyous and exciting public event, one that has not graced our fine Empire in many decades, however Novera and Izalith both have need of us and a moment longer of stasis in unacceptable. The Empire cannot remain idle. A public holiday will be organized in the near future. I thank you all for your understanding."

(the program ended soon after)

The following night went as it was destined anyway, with businesses shutting early and people celebrating in the streets. Due to their new no-nonsense alabaster ice princess of an Empress the people decided to celebrate for her instead.

FROM THE DESK OF THE ANAX

To Her Majesty Lillian Dunois, Empress of Izalith:

Kerameikos, Anax of Makaria’s Achaians and of the Peloponnese, sends Greetings!

As the voice of the Achaian people, I have the privilege to congratulate Your Majesty on your ascension to the throne of the Empire of Izalith. As I have expressed multiple times in the past, the loss of Your Majesty’s father, Emperor Charles, was a great loss, and all of Noverra held its breath in the wake of that news to learn the outcome of the succession. News of Your Majesty’s rise has brought relief to the halls of the Megaron. The Achaian people resume their lives today, knowing that Izalith stands as strong as it has ever done. We could not have hoped for a better outcome.

Nonetheless, I find it necessary to ask after that matter which was discussed during Your Majesty’s most recent visit to Kerkyra. Strategos Cholargos, my son, and I both fully intend to reinforce the ties that bind our two nations together, and we are desirous of a confirmation that Your Majesty is now as committed to this vision as you expressed to us previously. Should it be agreeable, given the unstable ground we now walk upon, I request that we begin this process as swiftly as possible, to preempt the interference of unfortunate circumstance.

The Achaian people cheer Your Majesty’s name, and Makaria smiles on your ascension. I am pleased to have the opportunity to address Your Majesty today.

Under the Shield of Our Goddess, I remain:

Kerameikos
Anax and Defender
Achaian Peloponnese
