This is a list of fictional monarchs – characters who appear in fiction as the monarchs (kings, queens, emperors, empresses, etc.) of fictional countries. They are listed by country, then according to the production or story in which they appeared.
He was the first monarch who along with Saint Seiros of the Church of Seiros (aka Archbishop Rhea) found the Adrestian Empire and raised an army in pursuit of unifying Fódlan, before the evil Nemesis, the King of Liberation, noticed Adrestia's efforts and railed his forces, the Liberation Army, to confront his enemy, thus sparking the War of Heroes. Wilhelm was eventually succeeded by Emperor Lycaon, whose death led the War of Heroes to finally end after the Adrestian Army achieved victory with Seiros slaying Nemesis.
Emperor Ionius von Hresvelg IX (voiced by Paul St. Peter)
He was the previous ruler of Adrestia and the head of House Hresvelg who had multiple empress consorts, including Anselma von Arundel (who later becomes Lady Patricia of Faerghus). During the coup of the Insurrection of the Seven, Ionius lost the power struggle to the Prime Minister, Duke Ludwig von Aegir, and other imperial noble houses and was rendered politically impotent. He even had Lord Volkhard von Arundel, Anselma's brother who returned from Faerghus to Adrestia as its regent, allied himself publicly with Duke Aegir to capture Ionius's children, except one daughter Princess Edelgard, and infuse them with two "Crests" in attempt to create a powerful, peerless emperor.
Formerly the crown princess and heir apparent, she becomes the crowned "emperor" of Adrestia following her brief reunion with her ailing father Ionius, although many of her siblings had died after being imbued with Crests. Edelgard is also the leader of the Black Eagle House at the Officers Academy and disguises herself under a male persona, called the Flame Emperor, in attempt to overthrow the Church of Seiros and conquer the other nations in Fódlan.
Grand Duchy of Aesfrost

Archduke Zigmunt Aesfrost
He was the previous ruler of the Grand Duchy of Aesfrost during the Saltiron War, a conflict between his country, the Kingdom of Glenbrook and the Holy State of Hyzante. He grew furious at Hyzante's monopoly over salt and contacted King Regna Glenbrook regarding passage into Hyzante, asking for an alliance with him. They allowed the Aesfrosti army to pass through Regna's kingdom, with the catch being Aesfrost must maintain joint control over the source with Glenbrook once they could conquer Hyzante. However, Symon Wolffort and his clan drove back the Aesfrosti's forces and proved themselves to be a fearsome band of warriors. In the midst of the war, Zigmunt took Orlaea, the legendary liberator of the people of Roselle, as one of his concubines for whom he had a daughter, Princess Frederica. He then returned Orlaea to Hyzante and signed the peace treaty, agreeing to those terms. Zigmunt died shortly after the end of the Saltiron War.
Archduke Gustadolph Aesfrost (voiced by Scott Whyte)
He becomes a new ruler of the Grand Duchy of Aesfrost after the death of his father Zigmunt as he reforms the country's government into a meritocracy with his iron fist, even when the lack of salt weakens it tremendously. His cousin Dragan has been attacked and killed by the assassins just as Symon's son Serenoa Wolffort inspects the newly discovered Grand Norzelian Mine with him. Dragan's death leads Gustadolph to accuse the Kingdom of Glenbrook of murdering him, bringing General Alvora there to help with his invasion. He executes King Regna and his son Prince Frani, captures his daughter Princess Cordelia and seizes the kingdom's capital to instill himself as its "new king". But Regna's younger son Prince Roland has escaped with House Wolffort as he becomes a sole heir to Glenbrook's throne. Gustadolph then returns to Aesfrost and finds that his uncle Svarog is illegally smuggling the salt and harboring a suspicions against him, regarding his son's death. His younger brother Thalas and sister Erika are both killed, leaving him to mull over his defeat and find a way to recoup his loss.
One Sun Mirror, the first Agatean Emperor and unifier of the Counterweight Continent.
A number of unnamed emperors are featured or mentioned in the Discworld novels. The first Emperor, introduced in The Colour of Magic, is described as young and idealistic, being frequently overruled by his Grand Vizier Nine Turning Mirrors, such as in regards to the welfare of the tourist Twoflower in The Colour of Magic (wanting him to be protected and killed respectively), or the prospect of installing gates in the Great Wall which surrounded the entire empire. In Mort, the young Emperor's father and grandfather are mentioned as having also reigned as Emperor. Prior to the events of Interesting Times, he was assassinated and succeeded by his uncle, a near-dead sadist.
In Interesting Times, it is revealed that succession to the Agatean throne is determined by war between five noble families, the Hongs, the Sungs, the Tangs, the McSweeneys and the Fangs, with the hereditary succession depicted in prior novels being said to be rare. The Grand Vizier, Lord Hong, attempted to install himself as Emperor by orchestrating a revolution by the ineffective Red Army (mostly consisting of children held back by Agatean respect for authority) and leading the subsequent counter-revolution; he then becomes leader of the armies of the five noble families in a brief war against the Silver Horde.
Cohen the Barbarian conquers the Agatean Empire in Interesting Times with the Silver Horde as part of his retirement plan, adopting the regnal name Ghengis Cohen, appointing Twoflower as Grand Vizier, and implementing wide-reaching reform. However, he and his allies abandon it in The Last Hero in order to exact revenge on the Discworld gods at Dunmanifestin for allowing heroes to grow old and die. In The Discworld Atlas, Cohen is referred to as the 'Last Emperor', the Empire being replaced by a 'People's Beneficial Republic' led by a Madame Bufferfly as Chairman of the Central Committee of the People's Revolution (possibly Pretty Butterfly, former leader of the Red Army and Twoflower's daughter).

Luffy, in her fight against Baroque Works. Cobra also had his kingdom's army called the Alabasta Royal Guard, commanded first by Igaram and then by Chaka. During the Wano Country Arc, King Cobra was allegedly assassinated by Sabo, chief of staff of the Revolutionary Army, just when Vivi was reported to have disappeared.

King Richard Charlton II (portrayed by Ben Lamb), the former crown prince, becomes the new monarch of Aldovia, with Amber Moore as his queen, after the death of his father. In The Royal Baby, Richard and Amber become the parents of the newborn Princess Elleri Claire.
The obese ruler of Alexandria who was once kind and well-liked until a strange man called Kuja had convinced her to create an army of Black Mages to wage war on each of other kingdoms and told her of the summoning powers that her adoptive daughter Princess Garnet possessed, which acted only to fuel her greed. Kuja claims that Brahne wanted to wage a war of conquest, and that he merely "gave her a little push", suggesting that Kuja exploited her grief over the death of the previous King of Alexandria to manipulate her into carrying out his goals. Because of this revelation, the Queen ordered her twin court jesters Zorn and Thorn to extract the eidolons from Garnet and then execute her for treason against her kingdom. In the end, Queen Brahne realized how foolish she was under Kuja's control, asked for forgiveness from Garnet and then died in her arms as she stirred anger within the party against Kuja.
She becomes the crowned Queen of Alexandria following the death of her adopted mother. During her coronation, however, Kuja attacks with the Dragon King Bahamut, forcing Garnet to draw out Alexander, the legendary eidolon who is summoned with the help of White Mage Eiko Carol. Succumbing to the recent traumatic stress, Queen Garnet often has difficulty concentrating during the battle, resulting in the occasional failure to perform actions such as White Magic and Summoning, as well as being unable to pose at the end of battles. She is then at her mother's grave, contemplating her path in life. And after an impassioned speech to Zidane Tribal, Garnet uses a dagger to cut off most of her hair, symbolizing the severing of ties to her former weak self.

Commander Vimes reasoned that, given how the Nobbses stole so many things over the years (possibly including the de Nobbes signet ring), Nobby could be proven to be 'the Duke of Pseudopolis, the Serif of Klatch and the Dowager Duchess of Quirm'; however, Nobby keeps to himself the fact that his family possesses a larger collection of noble jewels which could prove his noble ancestry.
