  • In 1964, a constitutional crisis in the Kingdom of the Great Lakes was ignited when the reigning monarch, Louis I announced his intention to marry his longtime mistress Jamie Louise Greenfield, a Sierran commoner and Canaanist. The union was opposed by the ruling National Party and most Prospectors. The Prime Minister, James St. Martin, attempted to remain neutral early in the controversy, but ultimately took an anti-Louis stance. The crisis ended in a People's Convention, in which a new monarch was directly elected by popular vote, the first and to date, only, such convention to be held since the formation of the monarchy in 1805. Richard II of Superior, Louis' younger brother, was elected King and was coronated a year and a half later, following a lengthy appeal to the Supreme Court by Louis. The affair has been viewed as the culmination of years of reign under an unpopular King who "was overthrown by his own misactions which created a perfect scandal needed to justify his ousting".
