Brookshire conflict

During the reign of Kaiser Raynor XI, James Raine, a citizen of Brookshire, became unhappy with Duke Rakesh's views and launched Brookshire's first-ever rebellion to have him removed. In his place he suggested that the more conservative Alexandra Decens (who was also the wife of the Kaiser) be instated as duchess. The Kaiser, being an opponent of the reformist movement, supported the rebellion and vowed that if they could receive a good amount of support he would allow for the ousting or Rakesh. However, his impatience came to a head and he removed Rakesh and proclaimed Alexandra Duchess.

Both sides of the conflict were astonished. The Kaiser tried to correct his move, but the correction was generally regarded as symbolic and not of real substance. Rakesh was given a Barony and Alexandra was removed as Duchess. From that point forward, though, Rakesh was no longer a real player in Shirerothian politics, and became inactive after having been removed from his position.
