Once you have enough resources, it’s time to back a princess!
Each princess has a powerful ability, so you’ll want to be first to pick!
Make allies of senators, dukes and other power brokers, and once you hit 20 succession points, the coronation ceremony will begin. Victory and the throne will be yours.

■ Story
In a wild time when swords and magic still ruled the world, an empire had united the entire continent and ended a long war.
However, before the peace could be solidified, the great emperor fell ill,
without a successor in place……

If this continues, we could be back to a war-torn world!
You are one of the most powerful people in the empire. You must quickly establish the emperor’s throne and ensure the unity and peace of the continent.
The emperor had no male children, but fortunately, he had seven candidates to succeed him, including two princesses of direct descent.

Now, let’s get the princess of your dreams to ascend to the throne!
