Francisco de Nueva

Francisco de Nueva was the Viceroy of the People of Egelion, the first Duke of Nueva, claimant to the Kingdom of Dranland, and is widely remembered internationally as being a dictator. During his life, he reformed Egelion, modernizing the monarchy and providing a system in which Egelion was to ride into the future. He is celebrated every third of February, on "Generalissimo's Day".

Religion
Francisco de Nueva hated the Solduni faith. He claimed it was, "old-fashioned, heretical, and just plain wrong". Using his powers as Viceroy, he declared the Solduni faith abolished, and ordered all Solduni adherents to convert to the Selucian Patriarchal Church. At first, conversion was slow, so he started declaring that Soldunis could not use the same busses as Hosians, could not use public facilities, and then finally ordered all the remaining Soldunis to convert or to be sold as slaves. This causes nearly ninety-percent of Egelion to become part of the Selucian Patriarchial Church. Today, all Solduni adherents were either slaves themselves or descended from slaves.
