Notes: Considered by some to be a service dodger and/or far too self-interested. According to Marsura and her supporters, the previous Queen, Aphoisia, died leaving the Empire at a massive deficit due to overspending. Since taking office, she has cut several programs, mostly "unnecessary" extended health benefits for military families and some research programs she deemed "pointless". She has also increased transit and gambling taxes on Holtiin, and is thus very unpopular there. By the beginning of Lucien's story, however, she is still receiving a near 70% popularity rating. |
