HelpRe: A Royal Congrats Sign-Up

UN: SugarPlumFairy
Empress: Maria Sophia Elisabeth Gisela (22)
Emperor: Philipp Maria Michael Franz (23)
Of the Royal House of Habsburg, of the Holy Roman Empire.
When old Emperor Ferdinand died suddenly without issue, he was succeeded by his young grand-nice, Archduchess Maria Sophia. Sophie, like she is called within the family, was raised by her widowed mother, Archduchess Louise, and never expected to become empress. She had a number of suiters, but eventually set her eyes on Prince Philippe d'Orléans, from the Royal House of France. The government was initially against the match (Philippe is only a grandson of a monarch, and made a living as an army liutenant), but the Empress made clear she would not marry anyone else. The young couple is popular among the people, although the political élite has doubts about their progressive and francophile inclinations.
