Despite King Giuseppe II's initial hopes of restoring the Crown's reputation, his reign was marked by a series of unfortunate events that gave it the moniker "The Cursed Reign". The King's coronation was a joyous occasion, celebrated with his wife Queen Consort Chiara, their twin daughters Crown Princess Stefania and Princess Alessandra, and his brother Duke Lotario and his husband Duke Mattia. The Queen Consort and her daughters were dedicated to their royal duties, strictly following protocol.
King Giuseppe II was a forward-thinking monarch who wanted to modernize NewCrest and make it a more progressive and prosperous nation. He was well-respected for his reformist attitude and became the first monarch to attend foreign engagements. However, tragedy struck when Duke Mattia lost his life in a fire that broke out in the Palace during the King's absence in Oflana. Upon returning to NewCrest, the King announced his brother-in-law's death, which was a devastating blow to the royal family.
Despite the tragedy, there was some good news when Crown Princess Stefania announced her wedding to the famous lawyer Neelesh. The couple had two daughters, Crown Princess Maria and Princess Marta. However, their happiness was short-lived when Duke Neelesh drowned in the pond of Queen Stefania I's Palace situated in Del Sol during a royal tour.
Following Duke Neelesh's death, Crown Princess Stefania struggled with cancer but continued to lead a normal life. Her daughters, Crown Princess Maria and Princess Marta, turned 16 and took over her engagements to help her relax a bit. Princess Marta made history by becoming the first royal to enroll in the army, breaking the protocols that forbid Crown Royals from applying for any job that wasn't the Crown.
Despite the family's ongoing struggles, Crown Princess Maria found happiness with the famous comedian and actor Paolo. They married, and the press soon warmed up to him due to his commitment to the Monarchy and his popularity among the citizens.
The family suffered another devastating loss when Crown Princess Stefania passed away due to cancer, followed by Princess Alessandra's death years later. King Giuseppe II, who had already suffered so much loss, spent his last years struggling with skin cancer. However, he found happiness spending time with his great-grandson, Alberto.
King Giuseppe II lived the longest on the throne and celebrated his Platinum Jubilee with his family. A few years later, he passed away, leaving behind his wife as Queen Mother and his granddaughter as Queen of NewCrest. Despite the many tragedies that marked his reign, King Giuseppe II's dedication to reform and his family's resilience serve as a reminder of the strength of the human spirit in the face of adversity. It was during his reign that NewCrest saw some of its most significant advancements in fields such as healthcare, education, and infrastructure.
The impact of King Giuseppe II's reign can still be felt in modern-day NewCrest. The lessons learned from his reign have helped the country grow and thrive in the years since. His legacy as a reformer and a family man is one that will be remembered for generations to come.
