Emperor Joseph (Holy Asgarnian Empire)

 * Path, of the Genics' became good friends with Emperor Joseph. Upon his mysterious disappearance he left him all of his land. This included Al-Kharid and Pollnivneach.


 * He set up regents who controlled the land until he gave it away to secure his borders in Asgarnia.
 * They left the region while also leaving Misthalin.

King Kharo

 * After the Sarimian Empire pulls out of their desert lands, a local nobleman/guard named Kharo Kharis takes the throne to run the Kingdom of Al Kharid and Pollnivneach. During his reign, the population and size of the military are a bit lower than usual...
 * Not many things significant happened, besides King Kharo meeting The Forgotten Prince, Aeron Genic, son of former Emir Path, and archaelogists studying artifacts in the throne room.
 * Praetor Henrik of the Vigilis Cruor breeches the palace and kills King Kharo, taking Pollnivneach for the Cruor and negotiating giving Al Kharid to Lumbridge.

Dominus Bruce Clough

 * Nothing truely interesting happened, pretty much five seconds after Henrik killed Kharo, Bruce handed Al-Kharid over to Lumbridge to form an alliance.

Grand Duke Eyvind

 * Al Kharid is absorbed into the growing Eyvindi Provinces.
 * Some things here.
 * Eyvind, in his retirement from politics, hands over the Eyvindi Provinces, including Al Kharid, to the Commonwealth of Gielinor.

Emir Corvus

 * Nothing particularly interesting happens, and Corvus hands leadership over to his relative, Ulrich.

Duke Ulrich Cross

 * The Commonwealth of Gielinor enters a war with the Kinshra and Varrock, leading to its collapse.
 * Ulrich breaks off from the Commonwealth, forming the Kingdom of Kharadia with Al Kharid, Pollnivneach, and Nardah.
 * Ulrich becomes King of Falador due to the deaths of King Corvus and Prince Thomas, so he appoints his 17-year-old niece, Emma, as Duchess of Al Kharid.

Duchess Emma Bloikon

 * Emma, after previously being a princess of Al Kharid from the rule of Path O. Genic, her step-grandfather, becomes Duchess of Al Kharid, ruling Al Kharid under her uncle's kingdom. Her husband, Joe Bloikon, serves as Duke of Al Kharid.
 * Soon after, some sketchy business happens between Ulrich and Dion Magnan that lead him to lose Falador.
 * Ulrich disappears not too long after that, leading Emma to take the leadership of Kharadia. The population and military size shrink, causing the kingdom to slow down.
 * Elliot Altus, the military commander of the Duchy of Lumbridge, ruled by Duke Filis Aerendyl, proposes a merge with Emma that would make Filis the King of Lumbridge and Northern Kharidia, and Emma the Grand Duchess of Northern Kharidia.
 * Due to the kingdom's problems with people leaving from the leadership change, and some pressure from Aztarwyn, Emma's biggest enemy, Emma accepts the merge a few days or so later.
 * Right after Emma signs the agreement for the merge, she hears her 2-year-old son, Blake, screaming. It is discovered that her husband, Duke Joe Bloikon, suddenly died (From leukemia that he had a year before recurring after it had been treated by Prince Thomas).
 * Luxn Boar of Rimmington invades Lumbridge soon after the merge, taking it over.
 * King Filis is captured and taken to Witchhaven to be held for a ransom of 2 million gold pieces and other expensive trinkets.
 * Since Filis and Emma were both single as a result of Joe's death, they decide to get a political marriage of convenience so they can both be monarchs, becoming engaged.
 * Emma discovers that she is pregnant from Joe soon before he died.

King Filis &amp; Queen Emma

 * Following Joe Bloikon's funeral, Filis and Emma are wed at the Abbey of St. Elspeth Citharede, making both of them monarchs. Emma's son, Blake, is placed at the beginning of the line of succession as the Crown Prince.
 * Emma's water breaks soon after the wedding, so she is taken into one of the rooms of the abbey where Filis delivers her baby. It turns out to be a girl, so Emma names her Elizabeth. Elliot recommends that they raise Elizabeth to think that Filis is her father, so she receives the Aerendyl last name.
 * King Filis and Queen Emma claim Sophanem soon after their marriage, forming the Kingdom of Kharidia.
 * A foreign mob and the Ardougnan Army are aggressive at the Palace towards a member of the Royal Family, sparking a short battle ending in Ardougnan retreat. King Oliver of Ardougne pays two million coins in reparations.
 * More things happen here.
 * At some point, Queen Emma decides to take a leave to go spend time with her mother. King Filis goes on a leave to go to the God Wars Dungeon, putting Eden Syvian in-charge temporarily.
 * Queen Emma returns half a year before Filis does, resuming rule of the kingdom by herself.
 * She appoints her younger sister, Taylor Genic, as Duchess of Pollnivneach.
 * Path O. Genic, the former Emir of Al Kharid and Pollnivneach, offers to buy Sophanem (A ghost town at the time) from Emma in order to repopulate it. She sells it for 1.1 million gold coins.
 * Some more things happen here, to be added later.
 * Soon after Filis returns, he and Queen Emma decide to go on a date in order to start a romantic relationship in their marriage. Prince Gekido, Emma's adopted cousin who secretly had a crush on her (And had Ulrich adopt him so he could get closer to her), uses chaos magic to possess Filis, forcing him to ask Emma for a divorce. Emma makes Filis move out of the palace due to their separation.
 * Emma becomes concerned with various people hating her and wanting to kill her, so she makes arrangements to send her son, Blake, and her daughter, Elizabeth, to Sophanem to live with Path under his protection and to learn combat from him. On the way out of Al Kharid, Path stops at a house, leaving them there while he needed to take care of something. Unsure of what to do then, they head back to the palace.
 * Aztarwyn roflabducts Emma while she is getting attacked by a mahjarrat, demanding that she gives him her kingdom or else he would kill her. She manages to get him to settle for Al Kharid, her capital.
 * Tired of the pressure of ruling a kingdom, Queen Emma abdicates. Nardah declares independence as a result, concluding the dismantling of the Kingdom of Kharidia. Emma passes the throne of Pollnivneach, her only remaining city, to its duchess, Taylor Genic.

Kaiser Aztarwyn Zephon Gonzo

 * After saving Queen Emma from the threat of a murderer in Al-Kharid palace, he took her to the dreaded Gonzo Realm. After ages of pressuring her to give him the capital, she finally gave in, giving Aztarwyn the city he needed to kick up the Empire.
 * Aztarwyn&apos;s men secured the city awhile after, in a fight that would mark a place in Das Kaiserreich history. The army displayed an impressive dominant assualt in the night-time, which started with the flares in the sky, cannons going off, archers sniping border patrol, and the overall battle within the city. Very few losses occured, and a few homes were burnt, as well as a bit of damage to the Palace and the Duel Arena.
 * After the invasion, citizens came out to see the new regime. Very few citizens died in the attack, though the soldiers treated them with respect. Repairs to the homes, Duel Arena, and the Palace went underway the next day.
