The '''Messer Era''' was a period in [[Human]] history between the founding of the [[UEE]] by Ivar Messer in [[26th Century|2546]] and the fall of Linton Messer XI on May 3, [[28th Century|2792]]. During this period, ten members of the Messer family ruled as [[Imperator]]s of the UEE, plus one titled posthumously. Today, they are seen to have been malevolent dictators who pushed Human expansionism at unethical costs. Many conspiracy theories surround the notoriety of the Messers.
==Ivar Messer==

''Reign: Prime Citizen 2546, Imperator 2547, died 2592''
Ivan Messer was the founder of the [[UEE]], Prime Citizen and its first [[Imperator]]. He rose to power as a victorious hero of the [[First Tevarin War]], leveraging fear of the [[Xi'an]] to justify his desire for power, and has been more recently implicated in having employed his wartime allies to perform [[Atrocity at Jata|terrorist attacks]] in a ruse intended to help him gain the title of Prime Citizen. After succeeding in becoming Imperator, he initiated numerous classified research projects on devastating weapons of war including [[Project Vespa]]. He also oversaw and endorsed a [[terraforming]] boom, which inspired the founding of the [[Gold Horizon|Gold Horizon Corporation]]. He also built a strong relationship with [[Aegis Dynamics]].{{fact}}

Livia Messer conducted a media smear campaign against [[Terra system|Terra]]n secessionist Senator [[Assan Kieren]].<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=starmap?location=KIEL.MOONS.AEMILIA&system=KIEL|text=Ark Starmap - System Kiel - Kiel 3a : Aemilla - Information}}</ref> She was a promoter of the [[Monumentalism]] style of [[architecture]].<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=comm-link/spectrum-dispatch/14875-Galactic-Guide|text=Comm-Link:Galactic Guide - Castra System|int=Comm-Link:Galactic Guide - Castra System}}</ref><ref>{{RSIForumComment|ref=no|comnum=2063229|text=Transcript - Architectural Phases in Star Citizen}}</ref> Because of a spaceship incident in orbit over the [[Earth]], she lost both her husband and son while sustaining heavy injuries. She abdicated two years later.

Livia's son, who was given the honorary title of Imperator two years after his death.<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=comm-link/transmission/15998-Loremakers-Guide-To-The-Galaxy|text=Loremaker's Guide To The Galaxy: Charon System}}</ref>
==Corsen Messer V==

''Reign: Imperator 2643, assassinated 2662 <ref name="Galactic Guide p. 52">''Galactic Guide: Leir System Mya'', [[Jump Point (magazine)|Jump Point]], vol. 04, no. 10, p. 52.</ref><ref>''Galactic Guide: Charon System'', [[Jump Point (magazine)|Jump Point]], vol. 05, no. 3, p. 46.</ref><ref name="ReferenceA">{{Cite RSI|url=comm-link/transmission/15582-Loremakers-Guide-To-The-Galaxy|text=Loremaker's Guide To The Galaxy: Leir System|trx=loremakers-guide-to-the-galaxy-leir-system}}</ref>''
Corsen was Livia Messer's brother, who nationalized all "[[Terraforming]] support" concerns when [[Gold Horizon]] relocated to Terra, leading to the collapse of Gold Horizon. He established the [[Orville Prison]] in [[Dellin]], [[Charon III]] - a blacksite for the Messer regime.{{fact}}
==Illyana Messer VI==

''Reign: Imperator 2662,<ref name="Galactic Guide p. 52" /><ref name="ReferenceA" /> died 2697 <ref name="ReferenceB">{{Cite RSI|url=comm-link/spectrum-dispatch/15200-This-Day-In-History-The-First-Step-Back|text=This Day in History: The First Step Back|int=Comm-Link:This Day in History - The First Step Back}}</ref>''
Illyana assassinated her father Corsen and her brother. She opted not to commit resources to [[Leir system|Leir]] to consolidate that power, inadvertently enabling the [[Outsiders]]' takeover of [[Mya]]. She was the UEE's Imperator when the first contact with the [[Vanduul]] took place in 2681.
