Sinchi Roca II (born Uturuncu Alexandre Francisco Quispe Rivière Inti-Carrillo y Ayreon-Kalirion; 15.VIII.1689 AN) is the current King of Nouvelle Alexandrie, having ascended to the throne on 2.XIV.1735 AN following the death of his father, King Sinchi Roca I. Prior to his accession, he was known as Uturuncu, Prince of Rimarima and served as the crown prince of Nouvelle Alexandrie.

Early life and education

Sinchi Roca II was born on 15.VIII.1689 AN in Punta Santiago, Alduria, Nouvelle Alexandrie. He is the eldest son of King Sinchi Roca I and Queen Abigail. As a member of the House of Inti-Carrillo, he was born into the royal family of Nouvelle Alexandrie and was second in line to the throne at birth, after his father. The young prince received his early education from private tutors at the Palace of Carranza in Cárdenas. His curriculum included a strong emphasis on New Alexandrian history, languages, and governance, as well as the traditions of the Wechua people. At the age of 16, he enrolled in the Royal Military Academy of Nouvelle Alexandrie, where he underwent rigorous military training and studied strategic leadership.

Prince of Rimarima

In 1710 AN, at the age of 21, Uturuncu was invested as the Prince of Rimarima in Rimarima, Wechua Nation. The title is traditionally held by the heir apparent to the New Alexandrian throne. This position came with increased responsibilities and a more prominent role in public life. He began to represent the royal family at various national and international events, gradually taking on more duties to support his father's reign.

During his tenure as Prince of Rimarima from 1710 AN to 1735 AN, Uturuncu devoted himself to several key initiatives that would shape his future reign. He became a vocal advocate for sustainable development in rural areas of Nouvelle Alexandrie, spearheading the "Green Heartlands" project which introduced eco-friendly farming techniques and renewable energy solutions to over 500 villages. Passionate about his heritage, Uturuncu worked tirelessly to preserve Wechua cultural traditions, establishing the Royal Wechua Cultural Foundation in 1715 AN, which funded the restoration of ancient sites and supported traditional artisans. His commitment to education saw the launch of the "Brightest Stars" scholarship program, providing full academic scholarships to over 10,000 underprivileged youths across the nation. Additionally, Uturuncu played a crucial role in strengthening diplomatic ties within the Raspur Pact, undertaking numerous state visits and diplomatic missions.

Marriage and issue

On 3.III.1720 AN, the Palace of Carranza announced Prince Uturuncu's engagement to Crown Princess Adelaide of Natopia. The marriage, which took place in 1721 AN, was seen as a significant diplomatic event, further solidifying the alliance between Nouvelle Alexandrie and Natopia.

King Sinchi Roca II and Queen Adelaide have five children:

• Sayari, Princess of Rimarima (b. 1722 AN) - now Princess of Rimarima and Crown Princess of Nouvelle Alexandrie;
• Nathan, Prince of Lindström (b. 1724 AN) - Crown Prince of Natopia;
• Urpi, Lady of Chucuito (b. 1726 AN);
• Xanthorr, Baron of Anapia (b. 1728 AN);
• Phaedra, Lady of Amantaní (b. 1730 AN).

Accession to the throne

King Sinchi Roca I passed away on 2.XIV.1735 AN at the age of 73 in the Palace of Carranza in Cárdenas. Upon his father's death, Uturuncu immediately acceded to the throne as Sinchi Roca II, becoming the third monarch of the Inti-Carrillo dynasty to rule Nouvelle Alexandrie. The new king's coronation ceremony is yet to be scheduled, but it is expected to be a grand affair combining elements of New Alexandrian, Wechua, and Natopian traditions.

Public perception and image

Sinchi Roca II enjoys consistently high approval ratings among New Alexandrians, with public polling regularly placing him among the most trusted figures in national life. His personal style combines the formal dignity expected of the monarchy with an informality that distinguishes him from his predecessors.

Personal interests

The King is a known motorcycle enthusiast who favors the Ahvaz Montaraz 850, a touring motorcycle manufactured in Santander. He is often seen riding through Cárdenas and Parap, taking advantage of the privacy afforded by a helmet's dark visor. Palace sources have confirmed that the King regularly rides without royal escort on routes through the Wechua Nation highlands and the coastal roads of Santander, a practice that began during his years as Prince of Rimarima.

One widely circulated story, later confirmed by the Palace of Carranza, recounts an incident on a remote highland road in the Wechua Nation. A motorcyclist had run out of fuel on a hot afternoon and found himself stranded far from any settlement. A fellow rider stopped to help and returned some time later with a small can of fuel. Only when his rescuer removed his helmet did the stranded motorist realize he had been assisted by the King. Sinchi Roca II reportedly asked only that the man "ride safely and be blessed" before continuing on his way.

Several mechanics in Cárdenas and Parap have reported servicing a motorcycle belonging to a quiet, polite customer who pays in cash and discusses engine specifications with considerable technical knowledge. The Palace has neither confirmed nor denied these accounts.

Approachability

The King's accessible manner has been noted throughout his public life. He is known to answer letters from schoolchildren personally, often in his own handwriting, and maintains correspondence with several young people he first wrote to during his tenure as Prince of Rimarima. Staff at the Palace of Carranza have observed that he prefers to stand during lengthy meetings rather than sit, a habit attributed to his years of military training at the Royal Military Academy of Nouvelle Alexandrie.

During official visits, Sinchi Roca II frequently engages in extended conversations with ordinary citizens, asking detailed follow-up questions that suggest genuine attention to their circumstances. This quality proved particularly evident during his work on the "Green Heartlands" initiative, when he made unannounced visits to rural villages across the Federation to assess the program's impact firsthand. Residents of participating communities have reported encountering the then-Prince of Rimarima in local markets, cooperative meetings, and community celebrations without advance notice or visible security.

The King maintains a personal kitchen garden at the Palace of Carranza and has been observed purchasing produce at farmers' markets in Cárdenas, typically accompanied by only one or two aides. During the Recession of 1726, while still Crown Prince, he volunteered at food distribution centers in Rimarima without prior announcement, a practice he continued intermittently until his accession.

Public role

Observers have noted that the King's personal accessibility complements his formal constitutional role. His intervention during the Spring Crisis of 1739, when he traveled to Cárdenas to address the nation and receive renewed military oaths of allegiance, demonstrated a capacity to project authority when circumstances required. The contrast between his informal private conduct and his commanding public presence during the crisis contributed to its resolution and reinforced public confidence in the institution of the monarchy.

The King's establishment of the Royal Wechua Cultural Foundation in 1715 AN and his continued patronage of traditional artisans reflect a personal commitment to cultural preservation that predates his reign. He speaks Wechua fluently and incorporates Wechua ceremonial elements into state occasions, a practice that has strengthened the monarchy's standing in the Wechua Nation and among Wechua communities throughout the Federation.
